THE challenge

Developing a unified, sustainable design strategy to serve the entire TELUS ecosystem with a modular approach.

Brand cohesive design
Designing a system that can be used by TELUS sub-brands, as well as the TELUS health products and the overarching brand ecosystem. 
Cross-platform Integations
The design needs to integrate varied systems and platforms from multiple mobile providers, each with its technical limitations.
Diverse User types
The design has to cater to three key user types—existing, new, and community users—each with unique flows, access levels, feature use, and cross-platform interactions, requiring tailored, yet cohesive, experiences.
multiple Use caseS
We had to accommodate many use cases, from transitioning existing users to reactivating SIM cards and facilitating in-store sign-ups, including edge cases and all state conditions.

DESIGN PROCESS

Approach

Landscape Analysis
We conducted extensive, cross-vertical research to identify best practices in digital ID experiences, focusing on enhancing visibility, building trust, and improving comprehension.
Human-centric design
We empathised with three user types to understand their needs, motivations, and limitations at various touchpoints. This informed the design of intuitive and secure flows, enabling a seamless transition to digital ID creation for all user types.
Modular Design System
We adopted a white-label modular design approach to accommodate the Digital ID flows across the TELUS brand ecosystem. This strategy ensured consistency in flow and design patterns while allowing brand-specific customisation and communication flexibility.

04

Methodology

User Journeys Workshop
In a 3-hour online workshop, we engaged cross-functional teams and stakeholders from Telus and Public Mobile to map the user journey for three distinct personas collaboratively. The insights gained from this session were instrumental in refining and streamlining our design process, ensuring a user-centred approach.
USe case Mapping
We mapped every user interaction with digital ID creation and access, focusing on user goals, actions, and contexts. With the goal of creating a user-centric framework ensuring the product meets user needs and limitations effectively.
Prototyping
We employed low-fidelity prototyping to outline the optimal user journey, prioritising usability, simplicity, and clarity. Utilising Maze for testing, we engaged a broad audience to ensure alignment with our key performance indicators and stakeholder expectations.
