USE CASE #1

Overcoming high drop-off rates in onboarding

The challenge

by.U encountered significant challenges with its SIM card onboarding process. Although there was strong initial interest from users, a high drop-off rate occurred at multiple stages of the onboarding journey. This resulted in a substantial gap between the number of users who began the process and those who completed it, adversely affecting by.U’s acquisition rates and overall customer growth. The lack of effective communication at critical moments during the onboarding process further contributed to user frustration and abandonment.

The solution

by.U leveraged App Survey within Architect to personalize messaging, resulting in significantly higher engagement rates compared to users who did not receive the App Survey. By using the feedback collected, by.U continuously refined the onboarding journey. They implemented six distinct journeys specifically tailored to the onboarding process, each designed to address and mitigate drop-offs at every stage, ensuring a smoother and more engaging user experience.

At by.U, connecting with our users and listening to their feedback is core to our approach. By leveraging surveys through Insider, we gain valuable insights from our young customers, enabling us to respond quickly and continuously refine our strategies to boost retention. We know that young people can easily lose interest and trust, so adapting and evolving based on their needs is essential. This focus has allowed us to enhance our onboarding process and significantly drive conversions.”
