๐ค Problem
How might we optimise the MyTenNights donation flow to improve acquisition and increase recurring giving, without compromising checkout conversion during the most critical fundraising period of the year?
MyTenNights automates Zakat and Sadaqah donations across the last ten nights of Ramadan, helping donors maximise the chance of giving on Laylatul Qadr. The product sits within a broader suite of giving tools and the checkout flow includes several add-on products designed to grow recurring giving. The challenge was to improve opt-in rates across these add-ons while managing decision fatigue and protecting checkout conversion during peak traffic.
๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Users and target audience
The target audience is Muslim donors looking to maximise the spiritual and charitable impact of their giving during Ramadan. Users range from first-time donors to returning supporters with existing schedules. The audience is tech-savvy, motivated by faith, and responsive to spiritually resonant framing. This meant messaging and UX decisions had to be considered carefully, non-manipulative and aligned with Islamic values around giving.

๐ Outcome
My contributions as a product designer spanned the full campaign cycle, from CRO and flow optimisation through to growth and marketing assets. The experimentation programme delivered measurable uplifts across key conversion metrics, with several experiments rolled out to 100% of traffic. Growth and marketing work I produced in parallel supported acquisition heading into the peak period. Full results and experiment outcomes are available in the full case study.
