Sign up flow redesign

Website re-platform

Big picture

Shell Energy acquired consumer energy retailer Powershop, prompting a full site re-platform to align tech stacks. This unlocked investment to optimise the experience.

What's the problem?

Problem space

Powershop's primary sales channel — an energy plan sign-up flow — was suffering from significant drop-off.

The legacy sign-up flow's user experience had declined over time through technical blockers and strict compliance requirements.

The form itself also struggled to manage different user types, offloading returning and existing customers onto customer service.
