Teman Belanja is a web-based application developed by Procter & Gamble (P&G) to simplify wholesale purchases in Indonesia. The platform’s existing UI struggled to convey transaction details effectively, leading to user frustration and missed opportunities for engagement. My team and I took on the challenge of revamping the interface to improve usability and align it with the new branding.

Understanding the Brief

Understanding the Brief

In a series of calls with the client, I clarified the project's scope and requirements:

  • Use the old design as a benchmark while incorporating new branding elements like logos, colors, and styles.

  • Design multiple key pages, including Login and Checkout, while covering various UI states for a seamless user journey.

  • Ensure the UI supports the end-to-end process effectively.
