losing

and trading volume inside journeys that

should be converting users.

Opportunity

True Current has already done the hard part, building a product and getting it to market. What's left is making the experience clear, engaging and built to convert, so every dollar spent on marketing turns into users who stay.

Think of it like a car and its fuel.

Marketing is the fuel, the product is the car. Put racing fuel in an unreliable old Ford and it won't get far.

The same is true of a Ferrari running on water.

Our job is to make sure you're driving the Ferrari, so when the fuel goes in, it takes you further and keeps more of it in the tank.

Product Audit

We reviewed True Current's landing page, product and key flows, from both a UX and visual standpoint.

We found 40 errors, 3 of them critical - places where you're likely losing revenue and user attention right now.

Each error costs you in at least one of four ways:

1

Perception:
Visual and UX inconsistencies that make the product feel less premium than it is.

They don't hit revenue directly, but they lower trust, and trust is what turns visitors into depositors.

2

Conversion:
A point where users who are ready to act drop off before they complete a desired action.

3

Retention:
Gaps that give users fewer reasons to come back, trade again or bring friends.

4

Direct Revenue:
Places where you're losing deposits and trading volume right now.

Experimentation

Before (True Current)

Rather than just list the issues, we wanted to show you what fixing them looks like.

We took the trader profile/portfolio page and redesigned it with 2 additions to the user experience:

1. Deeper personalisation, clearer insight into your trades, with key data highlighted in dedicated cards.

2. Addition of a PnL calendar, a visual snapshot of performance over time - great for sharing on socials.


After (v21 Studio)

Our Approach

One singular package that covers every design need you may ever need, here's how it works:

1

Team allocation - for this type of retainer you'll be allocated one Head of Operations/Project Manager, one Lead Designer, and one Supporting Designer, with the majority of the work being done by Natalie and David.

Natalie
Head of Operations
Worked with over 100+ clients, here to ensure briefs are tight and deadlines are being met & ensures feedback is being looped in.

David
Lead Product Designer
Worked with over 50+ fintech products specifically, including Lombard, Miracle & Sigma Trading.

Victor
Supporting Designer
Here to support with smaller tasks and ensure thorough QA of work being submitted - analysing data we gather from users.

2

How we collaborate - we get integrated straight into your team and use whatever communication software you like, whether that be Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, Teams etc.

Our team are more than capable and happy to join any sync-up meetings - no matter the time zone we can make it work!

3

How work is requested - feel free to @ our team in any chat or any meeting and request any design work needed.

Natalie will then make sure that brief is coherent and the team will begin work.

That way we communicate a clear deadline with yourself and when you can expect the next update.

Like always, everything is an open conversation. If something needs to be prioritised please do let us know!

4

Submissions & revisions - every day you will receive an update on how the work is moving.

If you have any revisions we typically aim to get them done same day if our time zones align.

5

What work is included - this retainer doesn't only cover product design but also any kind of static design, whether that be:

  • graphic design

  • social media posts

  • banners

  • events-based designs

  • product design

  • landing page design

Terms of all retainers:

  • Pause at any time. Any unused retainer capacity will remain available for 90 days.

  • Billing is upfront every 4 weeks, cancel anytime.

  • Video animation is quoted outside of scope.

Offer

$6,750

/per 4 weeks

The retainer is paid upfront at the start of each 4-week period.

This engagement is designed to improve the highest-impact product and user experience issues across True Current’s priority customer journeys.

Upon approval we will start off with the kickoff prioritisation meeting. Jot down all of the fixes and all of the key focuses that we should start with, all while making sure that the Figma is dev-ready for your development team.

Our recommendation is that we trial this for 1 month, we are very confident in the product that we provide, hence why we have all of these happy customers.

V21 is extremely responsive, communicative, and overall talented. It’s rare to find a design partner who cares so much about the work they’re delivering, and it shows.
