Cardless Loyalty
Nando's have had NFC enabled mobile wallet cards for a few years now. Unfortunately the PEDs in restaurant were extremely faulty and failed to find the NFC Nando's Card regularly.
I lead the end-to-end design for the QR code integrated mobile wallet, and the new Stripe integrated payment terminal.

RESEARCH FINDINGS AND
USER PAIN POINTS
What are they saying about PX?
I interviewed 14 different people from 7 varying teams who use Paytronix for their daily roles and what troubles they have using it.
Although there are a fair few pain points, a lot of these can and should be solved as they intertwine with one another, and are very much a two birds situation.

INSIGHT 03
IMPROVE EFFICIENCY
"There are loads of tasks where it's a lot longer than it needs to be."
*
INSIGHT 04
INCREASE FINDABILITY
"We sometimes have to scroll through multiple years of transactions for customers."
*
INSIGHT 05
INCREASE ENGAGEMENT
"Make it fun... Please. Help us Obi-Wan, you're our only hope."
THE SOLUTION
Streamlined, optimised, engaging
From the beginning of the design process, I worked really hard in trying to make the user's daily routine a little bit simpler with the help of the Loyalty Admin Tool. Nearly 70 people are going to be using this every day, and from the results of the multiple rounds of testing, I have thankfully achieved this.
As few steps as possible. Trim the fat. Make it fun.

REFLECTIONS
What's NEXT?
This was the first end-to-end project at Nando's that I got to lead on. I collaborated with my PM and engineers heavily, and the results speak for themselves. I learned a lot, and am very grateful for the support I received.
However, the job isn't over yet as we have some post-migration features and user requests to include in the next round of updates:
User requests:
01 Automatic spacing when copying a Nando's Card number
02 Introducing impartial customer search
03 Updating 'reasons' for adjustment
Post-MVP features:
01 Filters, filters, filters
02 Transaction dropdown
03 Pagination
