With digitalization transforming expectations from customers, we want to create a site/portal where the customers could find insurance products and services related to and based on moments of life.
The overall objective is to help the young adult, urban, millennials choose the right products & services for a given moment in their life. For example, these "moments in life" could be:
- Starting a new job
- Launching a business e.g., self-employed
- Moving into a new home
- Getting married
- Having children
- Going on vacations
- Buying a car
This responsive site will primarily focus on comparing products, but we also include additional advice and recommended services. The idea is for millennials to find, in one place, the essentials they need to know, choose, and do when moving to a new home, for example. It should be only the essentials, to ensure a sleek experience. It should also be about them as individuals with their specific wishes and needs (or "people like them"), not an average person.
The scope of the comparison service portal would be:
- Insurance products: Car Insurance, Home Insurance, Health Insurance, Travel Insurance, and Life Insurance
- Non-Insurance Products & Services to compare: tablets, smartphones, telcos, energy and banking/loans
KEY TO WIN:
- The user experience must be designed specifically for millennials, and be significantly more appealing to them than any existing comparison service.
- We don't want to copycat what others have already done, we want to differentiate strongly.
- The comparison service should primarily be based on a mobile phone app. A website should also be designed, offering as a similar, "app-like" experience.
- The transition between the app and the website should be as seamless as possible.
- Users can be asked to share personal information required to improve their experience and tailor the results of the comparison services.
- Sharing their information should be as simple and pleasant as possible, however, should not be based on voice input.
- On the other hand, the comparison service must use the best combination of visuals and texts.
- The service should "speak millennial", and avoid any unnecessary technical jargon.
Challenge Goals
- Create the best UI/UX for the Service Comparator Portal that provides the most convenient comparison service for a millennial user, helping them compare and obtain insurance coverages, products and services for their home, mobility (car, motor, bike, etc) and WellCare (life, health, etc.).
- Help millennials make smart choices on what they need and don't need (e.g., unnecessary, or double coverage) using this portal/site
User Flow
- Customers enter the landing page
- Customers have the option to register if they are new or log in if they are a returning user
- Can look for products/comparison based on products or moments of life.
- When the user selects a moment of life we need to show different services and products related to it (see the example for "Move to a new home" moment)
- Can access an FAQ page for additional information
Design Consideration
- Needs to focus on what Adult Millennial generation needs only, resist the temptation to broaden the user base
- Responsive website (can work on desktops & mobile devices)
- Build a mobile-first user experience
- Speak millennial: communicate their way, avoid insurance jargon
- Easy to understand flow from page to page, users can go back and exit throughout.
- Intuitive for the user; should never be left asking "what do I do next?"
- Simple, clean, modern
- Easy viewing for pages that may be over overcrowded with information (eg. when hovering over an item will enlarge for easy viewing or similar)
Design Usability
- Simple; not too many steps involved in any part
- Easy to understand the navigation from section to section
- Not too many clicks from initial page to final confirmation of purchase
- Fast and efficient user experience

- The services that will be shown should be based on the "Moment of Life".
- Specific for this challenge, we want to focus on "moving to a new home" moment. Your design should, however, be conducive to adding other "moments in life" at a later stage (see the moment of life from background overview section above)
- The 'moving to a new home' moment will need to account for "untraditional" situations while remaining extremely simple and convenient. These situations include for example:

06) Product Comparison Screen
- The comparison service should cover electricity/gas, internet, loan to finance the buy/rent, insurance (compulsory general liability, optional insurance of contents)

- For each product/service users want to compare, they will receive three options:
-- The cheapest offer
-- What 'people like the user' have chosen
-- The most premium offer
- The presentation of the options should be very simple, very visual. The tradeoffs between the options should also very clear. For example, in the case of insurance policies, users should clearly see what is covered / not covered.
- Other users ratings of the providers should also be accessible, as well as their comments.
- Users should be able to purchase the product/service extremely easily once they have made their choice.
