    uniE621 TD Bank - Online Banking Enrollment Redesign
    TD Bank Online Banking Enrollment Redesign — Jake Redmond Context & Problem TD Bank’s online enrollment was severely underperforming—only 4–9% success rates in self-guided and assisted flows. Friction drove customers to call centers or branches, costing the bank potential adoption by ~700,000 users. My Role & Process As Manager of User Experience Design for responsive web, I led UX and UI redesign—brainstorming, mapping flows, wireframing, prototyping, and testing in partnership with product, legal, architecture, and research teams. Design Sprint & Insights A sprint with cross-functional teams revealed customer frustrations: “It goes sour when trying to enroll for online access.” “Spent hours on hold… still not enrolled.” Users wanted instant access—even before receiving debit cards. Solution Strategy We redesigned the flow into four clear steps: Account Lookup – Tested SSN vs. Last Name + SSN. Findings: most would enter SSN but wanted clarity, confirmation, and transparency on data use. Copy was rewritten to be empathetic and explanatory. Consolidated Terms & Conditions – Moved scattered agreements into one screen, reducing cognitive load. Security Verification – Isolated OTP flow for customization without affecting other areas. Username & Password Setup – Let users choose credentials; avoided auto-filled email usernames due to formatting issues. Design System Integration I pushed for implementing a progress bar from the design system into the responsive codebase, securing a sprint’s resources to deliver it. Outcome & Impact The simplified, step-by-step flow reduced friction, clarified instructions, and improved perceived security. Core improvements: Manageable steps Reduced input burden Unified T&Cs Streamlined OTP verification By aligning stakeholders and applying human-centered design, we positioned TD to exceed industry enrollment benchmarks and convert hundreds of thousands more customers to online banking.
