USE CASE #1

Driving $59.4K in incremental revenue by boosting early log-ins with animated CTAs

The challenge

Rebel Sport wanted to encourage customers to register or log in earlier in their shopping journey, rather than waiting until checkout. This would enable more personalized experiences and unlock additional revenue opportunities.

The solution

By replacing a static call-to-action with a simple moving GIF, Rebel Sport drew greater attention to the log-in/registration prompt. This subtle yet effective change was A/B tested across desktop and mobile to measure its impact on user engagement and conversion.
