Stanbic-X is a secure crypto transaction platform designed to help users send, swap, and receive crypto tokens with minimal friction. The primary focus of this project was improving conversion rates—from landing page visits to successful onboarding and completed transactions.
The design strategy prioritized clarity, trust signals, and reduced cognitive load to ensure users could move confidently from interest to action.
