Credit Card Checkout
For this project, I designed four credit card checkout pages for Houzz, a platform known for helping homeowners and professionals discover design ideas, shop for furniture and decor, and connect with contractors. Houzz’s original interface can feel dense and overwhelming, particularly for first-time homeowners, so I focused on creating checkout designs that are clean, approachable, and user-friendly. Each style balances functionality and aesthetics, simplifying the process to reduce friction while guiding users naturally through the payment steps. I also incorporated Houzz's signature green (#4DBC15) more prominently to reinforce brand recognition and create visual continuity. This project showcases my ability to adapt designs to address user pain points while maintaining alignment with the platform’s identity and overall goals.
Revamping Houzz's Checkout Experience
The goal was to enhance Houzz’s credit card checkout page to provide a smoother, more intuitive process for users. With a focus on usability, efficiency, and design consistency across devices, this project aimed brand identity. By optimizing the design for both desktop and mobile, I created a seamless and visually engaging checkout flow that ensures a smooth transaction process for users. The result? A more intuitive, cohesive, and user-friendly checkout experience that better aligns with Houzz’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
Optimizing Houzz’s Checkout Journey
As Houzz continues to grow its loyal customer base and attract new shoppers, optimizing the digital checkout experience becomes crucial. Through a detailed analysis, I identified three key areas for improvement:
-
Streamlined Checkout Process

Houzz’s audience values efficiency and ease. By simplifying the steps in the checkout flow and reducing friction points, I aimed to create a smoother transaction process that minimizes abandonment and boosts conversion rates.

-
Visual Appeal and Brand Consistency
-
Houzz is known for its design-forward aesthetic, and the checkout page should reflect that. By integrating the brand's visual identity and enhancing the layout, I worked to ensure that the checkout process not only functioned well but also felt like an extension of Houzz’s high-quality design.

-
Improved Trust and Transparency
-
Building trust is key for an e-commerce platform. By clearly displaying payment and security information and offering visual cues for progress, I worked to ensure users felt confident throughout the checkout process.
