Visa Cashback

Visa Cashback Ecosystem

Overview

Led end-to-end product design for the Visa Cashback ecosystem - a scalable web and mobile platform developed in collaboration with Visa and leading Nordic banking partners.

The ecosystem enabled 400K+ users across the Nordics to automatically earn cashback through linked payment cards, connecting users with 1,700+ merchants across multiple partner environments.

The work focused on simplifying complex fintech experiences while ensuring consistency, trust, and scalability across mobile apps, web platforms, and partner integrations.

The Challenge

The goal was to transform a complex cashback model into a seamless and trustworthy experience - while scaling across multiple partners, platforms, and user segments.

The challenge was not only to simplify a complex cashback model, but also to create a consistent and trustworthy experience across banking integrations, partner ecosystems, and multiple platforms in a regulated fintech environment.

Key challenges included:

  • High friction in onboarding and card linking

  • Low clarity around cashback value and benefits

  • Fragmented experience across web, mobile, and partner environments

My Role & Ownership

As Product Designer, I owned end-to-end design across key product areas from discovery and concept definition to high-fidelity design and delivery.

I collaborated cross-functionally with product managers, engineers, marketing teams, and stakeholders across partner organisations - helping shape scalable UX patterns, feature direction, and product consistency across the ecosystem.

My work included user flows, interaction design, prototyping, design system evolution, feature validation, and close collaboration during implementation to ensure high-quality delivery across web and mobile platforms.
