Tripled conversions by improved mobile flow

Geeker connects people with tech issues to vetted experts in real-time. The mobile signup wasn't optimized. Conversion rate was at 1.2%.I redesigned the mobile flow. Within 2 months, conversions tripled to 3.6%.

The challenge

01

Mobile wasn't working

1.2% conversion rate
Hardly anyone completed the mobile flow, FullStory funnel was analysed to get to behind the scenes .
02

Clunky flow

6 steps, high abandonment
The signup flow had six steps but wasn’t optimized. Session replays showed users dropping off throughout the process.
03

Designed for desktop

Not built for mobile behavior
The mobile experience was essentially a squashed desktop version. It wasn’t designed for tap interactions or small screens.
04

Asked for too much, too soon

Personal information requested early
Personal details were requested at the beginning of the flow. Drop-offs occurred before users completed signup.

Before...

Too much white space

Not design for mobile, it’s a squashed desktop version

Broken credibiltiy

Too many logos make it look fake

Before...

Overload of information

There is a lot of information to take in for a simple action of adding a credit card

Not designed for mobile

Spacing and text sized not utilized for well mobile

Large logo

Does not give the authenticity feel.

Unmatched design

Does not match Geeker’s band

Overwhelming options

There are a lot of options that one can choose from, this can be overwhealming

Disabled options

Options which are not clickable increase cognitive overload and confuse the user

To much real estates

Job summery with the  estimate takes up a too much  space

Not optimized for mobile

Title too large, and too close to the logo.

Strategy & execution

01
Design-led approach

I redesigned the mobile signup flow for tap-first interactions. The flow was restructured step by step to reduce density per screen and clarify progression. Decisions were informed by FullStory funnels and session replays.

02
Copywriter partnership

We ran focused brainstorming sessions around the mobile flow.I led the design direction. The copywriter handled microcopy once the flow was defined.

03
Development handoff

I delivered final designs to the development manager. I reviewed the implementation using video feedback to catch missed details—font sizes, spacing, and colors—that affect the overall experience.

Top Screens

Scannable options

Top software categories surfaced first instead of long lists

Designed for mobile

Tap-first flow, not a compressed desktop version

Less is more

Used to advocate for services which are not used often - users are lead to a  page with search  where they can expand the full range

One action per page

Each step focused on a single task

Transparent pricing

Pricing and timing shown before payment

Time efficient options

Photo  option could be quicker for users to explain the problem

Reduced tapping

One text box for all CC details that flows from one to the other to minmized the taps

Security

Extra reassurance to know that they are safe to enter their details

Self validation

Easy visualize card details to make sure the right information was entered

Asking on time

Phone number moved to the final step after payment when the user is committed

Setting expectations

The users know what to expect - giving them the confidence throughout the process that they are in the right place

Encourage desktop

Geeker works best on desktop for screen sharing.After signup, a pop-up explained how to continue on computer.Users could also stay on mobile.

Reassurance

Answering the  question before they asked. What should I do now?

Exceeding expectations

Count down is longer than normal wait time so that way the waited a very shot durations

Results & Impact

Tripled mobile conversions

1.2% → 3.6% Within two months, mobile conversions tripled.10–30 signups per month became 30–90.

Google sign-in Google sign-in was tested to reduce friction.Result: no improvement.

What happened next
