In finance, the fastest path to a conversion is usually not the shortest one. Every shortcut you take is a question the user answers with suspicion instead.

Show the cost before you ask for the commitment

Fees, risks and limits up front. Every time we have tested this, completion went up — the people who leave were going to churn at the first statement anyway.

Plain language beats precise language

“You keep 97% of what you earn” outperforms a technically perfect fee table. Put the table underneath for the people who want it.

Let people undo things

A visible cancel, a clear refund path and a payment that can be edited for sixty seconds do more for trust than any badge or seal.

Identity checks at the moment of need

Nobody wants to photograph a passport before they have seen the product. Move verification to the first transfer and funded accounts double.
