Project context

Project context

At Goldcar, I led the design of several key initiatives focused on digitizing and streamlining the car rental journey. My work spanned projects like the Digital Catalog (a tablet-based tool to support upselling), Sign on Device (digitizing rental contracts directly on tablets), and Key’n Go—a bold move toward a fully deskless rental experience.


This case study focuses on Sign on device and Key’n Go, two major efforts that replaced paper-heavy, agent-dependent workflows with seamless digital interactions. Together, these projects helped shift Goldcar toward a more autonomous, fast, and user-friendly rental model—enhancing the experience for both customers and frontline staff.

Some methodologies used

Some methodologies used

Selected methods that informed design decisions from end-to-end, balancing user insights with iterative validation.

📍 In-field research

Observed branch workflows and customer behavior to understand pain points and validate digital flows in context.

🧩 Journey & service mapping

Mapped end-to-end rental scenarios across digital and physical touchpoints to align on opportunities and review journeys.

🧪 Prototype testing

Ran usability tests with interactive prototypes to evaluate ease of use, spot friction points, and refine both tablet flows and the self-service Key’n Go experience based on real user feedback.

🧪 A/B Testing

I used A/B testing to validate key interaction flows and identify where users were dropping off and check different flows behavior. This helped me fine-tune the experience and improve overall engagement.
