RETURNS & EXCHANGES

Single Entry Point

When initiating a return or exchange, M.Gemi required the customer to input their order number, which was often hard to find. To remove this friction, we designed a combined landing page that creates a single entry point for customers from which they can specify if they are performing a return or an exchange.

 
 

PURPOSE

To remove friction created by requiring the order number (which is often hard to find / can create friction in the user journey when considering initiating an exchange).

GOALS

  • Design supports initiating returns / exchanges with using either (mobile) phone number OR email as the key identifier to move from the Landing page to selecting the action <exchange|return>

  • Single point of entry to take action <exchange|return> should require only one variable for identification, not two (since we'll use account verification as another way to implement security)

  • Design includes mobile phone number authenticated by SMS code and supports an alternative verification code (if phone number code not possible)

  • Elevate details about our returns / exchanges policy on the landing page

Flow Diagram

This flow diagram shows the customer’s journey through returns and exchanges, with three separate entry points: order history, mgemi.com/returns, and mgemi.com/exchanges.

DESKTOP PROTOTYPE - FIRST PASS

This was the first attempt at creating a single point of entry for customers.

MOBILE PROTOTYPES - FINAL RESULT

In the next version of the prototype, I was able to cut out a step for the user. Initially, the customer had to select SMS or email to receive a verification code (1), then input their mobile number or email (2), followed by entering the verification code they received or clicking the verification link in the email (3). By creating a single form field where users could enter either their mobile number or email upon landing I was able to streamline this initial 3 step process for the customer into just 2. Showcased below are two ways that customers can enter the portal: via mobile number or email address.
