VP Go Onboarding Redesign


After transitioning the Global Corporate Challenge software onto the Virgin Pulse platform, the company identified that the join rates were not as high as they should be.

To increase the number of participants, we ran usability sessions on the feature’s new onboarding experience, identified key problem areas, and redesigned the user flow and UI.

Design updates

The original onboarding flow consisted of multiple bite-size steps across more than 10 onboarding screens. Due to its length, users consistently thought the flow was over before completing it.

Additionally, some confusing UI elements made various elements of the experience hard for users to understand. By simplifying the flow in its entirety, as well as some of these confusing UI elements, we dramatically improved join rates for the VP Go experience.

Main landing page updates

  • Removed event countdown since this didn’t spark excitement with users

  • Moved challenge rules to a second carousel slide, better aligning with existing design patterns on the platform

  • Removed image background from text to improve accessibility

  • Simplified language and hierarchy

Join a team page updates

  • Simplified formatting to align with rest of experience

  • Changed team browsing experience from a carousel to a list, as most users during testing didn’t realize they could scroll through the carousel to find more teams

  • Added relevant details to at-a-glance team view including: headers signifying team invites or open teams, number of spots available on a team

Confirmation screen upates

  • Updated language so user was aware they were officially on a team and a part of the challenge

  • Aligned design with rest of onboarding experience
