Adding mobile payments to the existing app to drive users engagement - Group project/ 3 weeks duration.
The challenge of this project was to understand the problems we could solve for them when paying in physical locations, and subsequently do design a solution for them.
By running surveys and interviews, we figured out that most of Foursquare users had the problem of paying for a minimum amount with cards in coffee shops, and wanted to pay by a barcode or similar solution. They wanted to interact with the barista, and they wanted the gesture to still feel like a transaction.
We also tested incentives to understand what could led users to be the early adopters of the solution, and it turned out that they wanted something as surprising as a flash sales, not loyalty schemes or games.
We then moved to creating a clickable prototype to integrate both payment and incentives into the look and feel of the Foursquare app, and tested it with more users.
