Upon joining the Fanatics/Topps Digital team, we faced the critical task of enhancing the user experience across our collectible apps. Our goals were ambitious: to significantly improve revenue, onboarding processes, and daily user engagement, while addressing and eliminating user journey roadblocks.


Our approach centered on four key areas:

1. First-Time User Experience (FTUE)

We aimed to create an intuitive and welcoming environment for new users, ensuring they found value from the very first interaction.

2. Purchase Conversion

Streamlining the path to purchase was crucial for increasing revenue and user satisfaction.

3. Home Screen Simplification

We redesigned the home screen to allow users to reach their destinations in fewer clicks, making navigation seamless and efficient.

4. Content Accessibility

By bringing previously buried content to the forefront, we enhanced the discoverability of our unique digital collectibles, which are central to the user experience.
