How IMB Bank discovered hidden engagement opportunities and amplified conversions using VWO

Adam heavily relies on VWO Insights to identify under-performing areas on the website. He uses all of the heatmaps, funnel analysis, form analysis, and session recordings for this. Based on the data collected, he and his team come up with testing ideas to optimize these low performing web pages and thereby drive up conversion rates:

• Personal Loan Conversion Rate increased by 36%
• Home Loan Conversion Rate increased by 87%

Personal Loan Application Form – 1st Page Optimized

Funnel analysis showed that approximately 37% of users were dropping off the first page of their personal loan application form. Since this page had the highest drop-off rate, Adam and his team decided to focus on this page.

They introduced several elements to further optimize the page:

• Added USPs
• Mentioned awards
• Included the time taken to complete the steps
• Improved the overall design of the form to make it easier to navigate
• Included clear instructions at each step to boost user clarity

Campaign 2: Personal loan application form – Exit popup

Funnel analysis showed that approximately 84% of users were starting the form but dropping off before completing it.

This clearly indicated that the intent was high – since users were starting the form filling process. This meant that IMB Bank had to come up with a solution to stop people from dropping off.

Test

Using mouse-tracking, Adam and his team fired a popup box when the user’s mouse would be about to leave the screen, prompting them to save or continue the form.

This popup was created to get as many users to complete the form by stopping them from leaving. However, they noticed that this didn’t seem to have an impact on users completing the form, but we saw a large increase in the percentage of users saving the form.

They thus realized that some of the information needed to complete the form wasn’t available for some users at the time they were filling out the form, which is why the ‘save’ option turned out to be highly impactful. Users could save the form, get all the necessary information and resume the form at their own convenience.

Furthermore, with the aim of reminding lost users to complete their form, Adam and his team tested adding a ribbon on the main page of the website. This ribbon had a button that enabled people to resume filling the form. They also plan to develop re-targeting marketing campaigns to prompt users who have saved the form to come back and complete the form to improve conversions.
