MUNDI
Established in 2020, Mundi is a financial services platform based in New York and México DF. It provides access to capital, currency exchange, risk mitigation for international trade, and factoring for small and medium-sized enterprises. Requests for advances on the platform can be made either through a SAT list or manually, leading to a higher application volume and increased workload for the customer service team.

Let's star the journey with some information
User pain points & goals
Through a deep dive into the product (exploration), user behavior (Mouseflow), and existing assumptions, our team identified key friction points in user flows and UI inconsistencies. Early stakeholder consultations helped us chart the course of action.
Defining success
To achieve our goals, we established clear objectives and measurable success metrics. These include reducing conversion time, lowering daily customer service requests, and increasing the adoption rate of the new Self-Service Account Management (SAT) flow.
Outcome
Our focus was directed towards developing a hybrid flow merging the existing manual and SAT processes. The aim is to streamline the request procedure for users, making it more straightforward and self-sufficient, while simultaneously alleviating operational burdens on the customer service team.

Wireframing
On the same day, 72 customers made multiple requests. In at least 90% of these cases, one of the requests was for only 1 invoice.
(25) customers requested advances both manually and using pre-filled invoices on the same day because.
To explore the frequency further, 43% of the days this client base requested advances, they encountered this issue. In total, this amounts to an additional 78 requests.
These are some initial sketches.

How are we going to know we achieve our goals?
The design
The proposed solution, approved by the product team, represents the culmination of our efforts, marking the endgame of the flow after addressing technical debt.
At UX, we prioritize user experience while also considering resource and time constraints for rebuilding a flow from scratch. We acknowledge the significant development effort and time investment required for such an endeavor, which entails meticulous planning, design iterations, and implementation.
Our approach aims to strike a balance between addressing technical challenges and project constraints. We collaborate closely with the development team to determine the most efficient and effective approach, ensuring the final product is user-friendly and sustainable in terms of development resources.
By taking this comprehensive approach, we strive to achieve a harmonious balance between user experience, resources, and time, ultimately delivering a solution that meets both business objectives and user needs.
In this proposal, the search feature will be pivotal. Users can search for invoices either from the SAT (Tax Administration Service) database or manually upload them if not found.
UX has raised concerns regarding this part. Firstly, users may find it disconcerting not to see the familiar SAT listing. Secondly, the search feature's actionability may lack intuitiveness. Thirdly, resolving the technical debt affecting SAT invoice display is crucial for the overall user experience.
