Delivering exceptional digital experiences has become a key differentiator for financial institutions competing for customer loyalty. In this engagement, Trellist partnered with a leading financial services organization to reimagine its rewards experience through strategic UX, design, and Adobe Experience Manager expertise.
The Situation
For financial institutions, a rewards program is often where customer loyalty is actually won or lost, and the redemption experience is what decides it. Our client, a leading financial services organization, set out to reimagine that experience and expand the rewards offerings behind it.
The work came with constraints that shaped every decision. Rewards content changed continually as offerings evolved, so the experience had to be straightforward to update without a development cycle for each change. Every asset needed to be mobile-responsive and ADA-compliant. And because the experience lived inside a regulated environment alongside other technology vendors, it required daily coordination with internal compliance teams to protect brand integrity, functionality, and risk management.
Trellist was brought in to provide the strategy, UX, design, and Adobe Experience Manager expertise to build and run that program.
