Summary
Rethinking the transactions review process
I was a part of the Accounting product team during its merger with Glassnode. As a design lead, I was responsible for redesigning the transaction review screen, which was an essential part of the customer journey. The redesign helped to reduce churn, increase revenue by 1.5x and ultimately led to the company's acquisition by Blockpit.
Summary
The project demanded the expertise of a crypto-native designer who could navigate the intricacies of the industry and understand the unique needs of its users. As a key contributor to the initiative, I joined the project with a focus on overhauling the transaction screen.
The redesigned transactions screen led to a notable reduction in user queries, streamlining user interactions and decreasing the need for support assistance.

We brainstormed and tested multiple versions with the our customers.
For the first version of the designs we tried to remove secondary information and make it it more visual by introducing custom icons for different transaction types and additions, but it didn’t perform well during the usability testing.
Users care about the little details
Users wanted more filters to drill further down.
Some elements were still inaccessible due to poor colour contrast.
