1. PROJECT CONTEXT / Donating and Shopping ISSUE: Donating

ISSUE: Shopping In order to give our project a strong and believable local context, we observed the very Singaporean phenomenon of shopping. One only has to look at the abundance of shopping malls in Singapore to infer that we absolutely love shopping.

We then noticed an interesting phenonmenon - the donation box at the cashier table.

We engaged the project by looking at act of donating for a charitable cause. Donation is a complex and tedious social phenomenon. Most importantly, donation requires a certain level of commitment from the donor. We realised that there are two extremes when it comes to the amount of commitment required when making a donation and mapped it out accordingly:

VS

Donation boxes are commonly placed next to the cash register. Shoppers with spare change may opt to drop their coins or notes into the donation box. We went shopping ourselves and photographed donation boxes in the retail space. Most boxes were empty and the shoppers we interviewed did not care about it. This is due to the following problems which we identified:

HEAVY COMMITMENT Large, one-off donations.

Regular, repeatable donations (monthly or yearly).

SMALL COMMITMENT Short donation drives (e.g. Flag) Donation boxes.

Small irregular donations.

CHARACTERISTICS Long engagement period.

Stable and strong relationship.

Long-term exchange of value.

Follow up action.

Large financial liability.

Large emotional liability.

Strong degree of trust.

CHARACTERISTICS Short engagement period.

Temporary and weak relationship.

Immediate exchange of value.

No follow ups.

Small financial liability.

Small emotional liability.

Lower degree of trust.

Jonas Wenke A0093403M / Kwek Wen Shu A0073457Y / Seth Chiam A0087919J

PROBLEMS Only accepts coins.

Tiny and insignificant design.

Security measures that look too aggressive (chains).

No feedback and information on where the money goes.

The donation box system is ineffective. In the current shopping experience, donating is not a part of the picture. To shoppers, donating at the cashier counter is treated as an afterthought.

We feel that is no point having the donation box at the cashier table if they are not an effective avenue for donations.

1. PROJECT CONTEXT / Donating and Shopping USER GROUP Based on our analysis of commitment levels in donating, we figured it would be possible to categorise donors into two general categories. Most existing donation services only cater to these two groups of individuals:

“COMMITED DONOR”

“CASUAL” DONOR

?

Goodwilled individuals with the passion to help.

Individuals who are lukewarm about donating.

Mature and/or well off with the means to commit to a large donation.

Young and/or without the means to commit to large donations.

TARGET USER

It be observed from the above infographic that there is a type of individual whose needs are not currently fulfilled. They are individuals with the passion to help but without the means to commit to large donations.

USER DEMOGRAPHICS

USER CHARACTERISTICS

Men and Women Aged between 21-30 years old Monthly income of $400-$3000

Our target user is the good willed individual who is passionate about helping the unfortunate.

They are financially stable and live a comfortable life. They love shopping and spending on themselves and their loved ones. Unfortunately, they are not particularly well-versed in banking products and services.

They believe in the idea of donating cash to support the needy but lack the financial or emotional capacity to make substantial commitments.

The target user is youthful and energetic. They are individualistic and prefer to invest in products/services that reflect their personality. However, they are mature enough to understand the importance of security and professionalism in banking products and services.

1. PROJECT CONTEXT / Donating and Shopping STAKEHOLDERS

PLACE

Banks

Retailers

Shoppers

Charitable Organisations

Retail shops

We feel that there should be systems in place for charity organisations and retailers to collaborate. Banks could be involved as well to pull shoppers in and entice them to donate after they shop for items at a retailer.

We think this would allow for an interesting service proposition as there are currently no products or services in the market that effectively ties up banks, retailers, shoppers and charities. The collaboration will be mutually beneficial for all stakeholders.

Website (bank/ charity/ retail) The primary places of engagement would be the retail shops, in which the purchase of items and donation will occur. The website would be a key service “location” as well as the target audience is expected to be fairly tech savvy. Our service project should fit seamlessly into these places.

2. INSIGHTS AND OPPORTUNITIES SECONDARY RESEARCH Movements such as Occupy Wall Street have put major banks in a bad light.

Upward trend of people giving more in spite of the recession.

Major banks, along with big MNCs, are seen as part of the corrupt 1% manipulating democratic process, and the role of Wall Street in creating economic collapse . Therefore, transparency is imperative to make the system trustworthy for users.

Since 2004, there has been a global upward trend in donations and philanthorphy. The total annual amount donated has increased from £9.4 billion in 2004, to £11 billion in 2010/11. There has been an increase in the amount of donations from individuals. In fact, it is growing at a faster rate than corporate giving.

HOW MIGHT WE...

Let users to be constantly in touch with the money that is accumulated through their involvement and interaction with the system?

Show the users that the bank and retailers are working together with them for the benefit of those in need?

Give the user power to channel their money to whichever charity or project they so desire?

Even in Singapore, local donors are becoming more generous and are giving more. Along with non-residents who are supporting local charities.

(Source: NCVO/CAF)

HOW MIGHT WE...

Create more avenues for willing donors to donate? (http://data.ncvo-vol.org.uk/) (http://www.salt.org.sg/1406/a-landscape-study-on-donations-insingapore/)

(http://occupywallst.org/about/)

Movements such as Occupy Wall Street have impacted philanthropy as a whole.

Rick Cohen, writing for Non-Profit Quarterly writes, “Institutional philanthropy itself will face pressure that might be seen as OWS blowback The protesters representing the “99 percent” may aim part of their critique at foundations as instruments created and largely controlled by the “1 percent.” We are creating a system to rebuild public confidence in charities and philanthropic institutions.

HOW MIGHT WE...

Let charities display their financial expenditure for their ongoing projects?

Let users know where their money really goes?

And how their money directly affects the donees?

Women donate (and shop) more than men.

Women are 61% more likely to donate, while men are 56% more likely to donate. . A study has shown that women in America spend 399 hours a year making over 301 shopping trips and that men are now shopping more than before .

HOW MIGHT WE...

Integrate donations seamlessly into the shopping experience to ride on the increasing number of shoppers around the world?

Passionate about helping the unfortunate.

LEGEND: Interactions

Touchpoints

INSIGHTS The shopping experience is highly enjoyable. The user is in a state of increasing anticipation. In this engagement, the user is more concerned about his/her own well-being and not that of those who cannot afford the luxury they currently have.

INSIGHTS of a user’s personality and status. Users are proud of their cards.

INSIGHTS Users feel disengaged when the system does not meet their current abilities. Service should be more encompassing and consistent throughout all touchpoints.

a person’s character.

User Opinion INSIGHTS The card swiping process is perceived to be enjoyable.

However, the cashier is the one doing the action. Users want to do it themselves.

Emotional Experience

Insights

Opportunity

Key Touchpoints

INSIGHTS Users feel self-conscious when handling real cash in front of others.

OPPORTUNITY If the user enjoys shopping, we should leave it as it is.

BUT how might we increase the awareness of the donation without a negative effect on the shopping experience?

INSIGHTS Donation boxes give the impression that charities only expect small change. Reduced value of giving.

INSIGHTS Visibility of donation channels should be higher. It should look trustworthy.

INSIGHTS Users need to know where their money is going and a form of acknowledgement and appreciation. The donation process should be more meaningful and integrated in the shopping experience. .

OPPORTUNITY Users are conscious about what happens at a cashier. This presents a opportunity for them to display their character and personality.

There is a degree of fun in the action of paying with cards, how might we translate that into the act of donating?

Jonas Wenke A0093403M / Kwek Wen Shu A0073457Y / Seth Chiam A0087919J

In the shopping experience, donation is treated as an afterthought. How might we make it a meaningful and acceptable part of the experience?

4. SERVICE PROPOSITION TARGET USER WITH UNMET NEEDS

SHOPPING + DONATING = ?

DONATION BOXES SUCK

The user group has the ďŹ nancial means and the desire to improve their lives through spending money on themselves.

However, they are aware of their fortunate lifestyles and want to help those in need.

Shopping and donating are similiar in that they both elicit a positive emotional responsive.

Donation boxes are poorly designed.

There is a lack of feedback, transparency and joy in its usage. They do not give the user any meaningful experiences.

A problem arises when they ďŹ nd out that they do not have the means to commit to meaningful monetary donations.

But existing systems (donation boxes) make donation seem like an afterthought; an additional step that is not attractive.

Users cannot feel the link between them and the charity.

A credit card service that gives passionate donors the ability to donate within their means while shopping. The payment and donating process is seamless, fun and empowers the user. The service will also link user, charity, retailer and bank seamlessly and in a transparent, trustworthy manner.

7. SERVICE TOUCHPOINTS / Givers Brand and Credit Card Logotype

Card Design

GIVERS LOGO The Givers logo is created with the design language of clarity, simplicity and elegance. This is to portray professionalism and trust, important elements for a bank product. The unique arrow on the ‘G’ relates to the unique dial function of the Givers Dialpad (to be elaborated later).

Cyan = 100 Magenta =100 Yellow = 30 Key = 21

Futura Futura Futura GIVERS CREDIT CARD The card accurately reflects the brand language. The design is iconic, eye catching and identifiable from a distance. There are a number of different colours and designs the users may pick from for variety.

7. SERVICE TOUCHPOINTS / Givers Dialpad Industrial Design

GIVERS DIALPAD The Givers Dialpad is a new way for customers to pay and donate. It combines the functionality of the typical credit card signature pad with a dial for user input (purpose to be elaborated). The purple and white of the Givers brand is once again carried over into the design of product for the cashier table. The design is young, friendly, gentle and easy to understand.

We decided to use the screen on the signature pad as a display panel as well. We observed that most signature pads and credit card readers were overly complicated and scared the user.

Hence, we simplified the interface and made it extremely straightforward.

The dial adds user control to the payment/donation process. The act of turning the dial is fun, playful and refreshing. It makes the process of donating engaging and ultimately more fulfilling.

For the purpose of privacy, the screen is designed such that viewing angles are restricted.

When used from a standing position (such as at cashier tables) the screen is clear and bright.

Everytime the user uses the Dialpad to donate, it learns his/her donating behaviours. For example, if the user frequently donates very little he/she seldom needs to turn the dial much, reducing the satisfaction of using Dialpad. The device will remember the user’s average donating amount and adjust so that in future purchases the user needs to turn the dial more to reach he/she average donation amount.

7. SERVICE TOUCHPOINTS / Website Main Page & Application Procedure

The website is designed to be approachable and structurally simple. We tried to eschew anything that might be deemed superfluous in favour of a more streamlined design. There are no technical jargon or ‘bank-speak’ so the target user does not feel disengaged or confused. However, we also took note of the fact that we are designing for a bank and there is a need for the website to look reliable and safe. We hope we achieved a good balance in the design of the Givers website.

7. SERVICE TOUCHPOINTS / Website Adopting a Charity

1. Givers Project page to view all available projects.

2. View charity user is interested in. Charity’s profile page has information on the organisation.

3. Support the charity be donating X% (user determined) of monthly Givers Credit to them.

ADOPTING A CHARITY ON TOP OF DONATING TO INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS We expect that not every user might want to micromanage his/her Givers Credit every now and then. Alternatively, users might feel passionate about a particular organisation and wish to support them in a more meaningful and direct manner.

The charity adoption function allows users to set a specific % of their monthly Givers Credit total aside. This money will be directly donated to a user-defined adopted charity. There is no need to manage this once the function is implemented by the user. It is, however, removeable and/or editable by the user any time he/she wishes.

6. Splash screen to thank user.

8. Experience Prototyping / Givers Dialpad First Iteration “Huh? turn to pay?”

KEY OBSERVATION #1 Most of our users found the action of turning to pay rather confusing. The dial allows for the user to adjust the donation amount but shouldn’t be used in the same action as the payment. Payment is fixed so a push of the dial should suffice for confirmation.

“I’m afraid that the card might snap”

This was the first model we used for Experience Prototyping. Using a paper and card model, we simulated the experience of using our Givers Donation Machine at the cashier counter of a shop.

KEY OBSERVATION #2 Even if we make a card that is rigid and durable, users find the notion of twisting their card to turn the dial rather disturbing. They fear that the action will damage the card.

“How generous am i? woahhh” “Quite Fun” KEY OBSERVATION #3 Turning the dial with the card was quite unnatural for the users, but all of them were fond of turning the dial to donate. So, it became a matter of designing the best way possible to keep this interaction while making it as intuitive as possible.

“What if I don’t wanna confirm?!”

KEY OBSERVATION #4 At the confirmation screen the prompt “push to confirm” is given, but no option was given for “cancel”. A minor adjustment of adding that option would make the user interface complete.

8. Experience Prototyping / Givers Dialpad Second Iteration “...all those call in to donate TV donations, I’m just too lazy to do it” “this is when i’m already paying for something”” KEY OBSERVATION #1 Integrating the donation into their daily purchases does away with the hassle of call donations or the awkward flag day type donations. Users are therefore more likely to make donations because of this convenience.

“Once i turn it, I probably won’t turn it back to 0” KEY OBSERVATION #2 At the heart of the system is the act of donating.

Once the user turns the dial clockwise, it is unlikely that he would turn it all the way back to $0. This keeps the donations regular in the system.

Our second version of the Givers Dialpad model included improvements made from feedback and observations from the version 1 model.

“What if I’m left-handed?”

KEY OBSERVATION #3 Turning the dial with the card was quite unnatural for the users, but all of them were fond of turning the dial to donate. So, it became a matter of designing the best way possible to keep this interaction while making it as intuitive as possible.

8. Experience Prototyping / Givers Website Website Mockup “Can I decide that from now on, all my credits go to this charity?”

KEY OBSERVATION #1 Some users wondered if they could let the their Givers Credits go directly to the charity of their choice without them logging on to their account.

Till then, all users had to log on to distribute their accumulated credits to different charity projects.

However, an option to allow direct transfer of Givers Credits to the Charity should be offered.

“I would trust them if they tell me exactly how they’re going to use the money” KEY OBSERVATION #2 Users feel more compelled to donate if they saw what the donations would be spent on. There needed to be a clear way in the Giver system for charities to display just how the funds will be used.

Experience Prototyping was done for the Online Givers Account as well. Using Microsoft Powerpoint, the group did a simulation of the key pages on the Givers Online Account. These included the personal profile page, gallery for current ongoing charity projects and a review page for the charity projects the user has selected.

“How will I know when the project is complete?”

KEY OBSERVATION #3 Users want feedback from the system when the project they are contributing to has been completed.
