Problem Statement

The project aimed to address significant user drop-off rates during the eKYC (electronic Know Your Customer) and eContract processes at KISVN. Despite a high success rate from the eKYC vendor (over 90%), the completion rate of sign-ups was low. This discrepancy suggested issues beyond the performance of the eKYC system itself. The key problems identified were:

1. Complex and Lengthy Sign-Up Forms: The multi-step, detailed forms were overwhelming users, causing frustration and abandonment of the process.
2. Technical Issues: System errors, slow loading times, and compatibility problems across various devices and browsers led to user drop-offs.
3. Insufficient User Guidance: Users lacked clear instructions and support, making it difficult to navigate and complete the sign-up and contract processes.
