ROLE   Visual Design Lead    |    CLIENT   PayPal   |    PROJECTS   PayPal Credit in the Consumer App

PayPal’s mobile app got a massive overhaul, and for the first time in history, rebuilt its app from scratch. PayPal wanted a simplified experience for users who wanted easier ways to make peer-to-peer payments, pay in stores, order food, manage their account settings, and more. My role as Visual Design Lead was to work closely with the UX Design Lead, and PayPal mobile team to help redesign PayPal Credit into the consumer app. The biggest pain point for PayPal Credit in the previous Consumer app was that users could not make a payment within the app itself. Instead, they were taken to the PayPal website to make a payment. It was a long and cumbersome experience just to make a simple Credit payment. There were several designers working on different mobile experiences simultaneously, so it was important to all collaborate in person to make sure we were all using the same interaction, visual, and iconography patterns.
