Templating the app investiment journey
Problem statement
There were significant differences between the trading experiences offered by the various investment products available on the XP app, and the investment funds team accepted the challenge of creating a templated journey that would cater to all the investment products we currently offer to our clients.
Direct objectives
Ensure consistency, standardize behavior, reduce cognitive load, ensure accessibility with an equivalent experience for everyone.
Indirect objectives
Increase conversion, reduce contact rate, improve CSAT/NPS.
Project stages
Mapping 'as is'
Order ticket UI
Flow step: Trading, subscription or redemption, scheduling.
User goal: Define the amount they want to invest or redeem from the investment.
Support screen UI
Flow step: Pre and post-trade, instruction, selection, etc (used in some contexts)
User goal: Set information that affects the flow, for example, modality and affiliation.
Transaction summary UI
Flow step: Info confirmation, consent agreement and authentication.
User goal: Check the amount, terms and other details. Also, confirm the transaction via a security method.
Feedback UI
Flow step: Success, timeline, and additional information
User goal: Ensure that my investment was completed and review the schedule for subscription or redemption.
Mapped inconsistency volume
Total of 6 products with 17 different trading flows
Benchmark and data
We looked at existing data in our databases and analyzed the market
Hands-on and Critiques
We tested with the product teams how the concept fit within each product's flow, followed by refinement feedback
Usability testing

👉 We refined the concept based on insights from the tests and checked if:
• Information was clear and relevant
• Scheduling was intuitive
• There was an impact with dark mode
• Users prefered to trade by quantity or value (closed-end funds and treasury direct)
• The choice between buy and sell was intuitive (stocks)
• The method for choosing price or order type has an impact (stocks)
Results

SUM score (test performed using Maze)
