Research

Understanding the Target Audience

Before diving into the design process, we conducted in-depth research to understand the preferences, behaviors, and pain points of sports bettors. We surveyed active sports bettors to gain insights into their betting habits, favorite sports, and expectations from a sports betting platform.

Competitive Analysis

We analyzed various existing sports betting platforms to identify industry best practices, common patterns, and areas for improvement. This analysis helped us understand the benchmark in the industry and find opportunities for differentiation.

Design Process

Based on the research insights and defined objectives, we started ideating and creating low-fidelity wireframes. We focused on prioritizing essential features while keeping the interface clean and intuitive. Iterative feedback from stakeholders and users helped refine the wireframes.
