ADCB - TouchPoints – overview
IntroductionADCB

Designed as a key pillar of ADCB’s digital strategy, the app delivers a seamless rewards experience with personalized journeys, tiered benefits, and exclusive offers. A bespoke design system ensures brand alignment while giving TouchPoints its own vibrant identity.

The Problem StatementThe starting point

ADCB’s TouchPoints program lacked a dedicated mobile presence, limiting accessibility and engagement in an increasingly competitive loyalty landscape.

With no standalone app and limited differentiation, the program struggled to attract and retain users, especially non-ADCB customers. To stay relevant, TouchPoints needed a modern, user-friendly platform that enabled seamless redemption, gifting, exchanges, and raffle participation, while elevating the brand’s digital positioning.

The MissionThe mandate

To design a dedicated, mobile-first platform for ADCB’s TouchPoints program that would overcome limitations in accessibility, engagement, and reach. By creating a seamless and user-centric experience for both ADCB and non-ADCB customers, we aimed to simplify key actions of loyalty redemption. Alongside this, we developed a distinctive and scalable design system to strengthen brand differentiation, enhance digital presence, and position TouchPoints as a leading loyalty solution in a competitive market.

Approach to SolutionHow it was done

01 – Understand the Problem

Mapped the credit value chain to uncover where siloed teams, manual processes, and system fragmentation blocked growth and frustrated customers.

02 – Shift to solution-led selling

Redesigned journeys to focus on customer needs enabling agents to offer multiple relevant products in one conversation.

03 – Enable multi-product applications

Created a single flow where customers could apply for several credit products in one session, reducing friction and increasing product uptake.

04 – Integrate systems around the journey

Connected KYC, credit checks, CRM and government APIs to deliver real-time eligibility, compliance, and a seamless user experience.

05 – Design for self-serve and assisted sales

Built a flexible, omnichannel platform for use by agents or customers–reducing acquisition costs and improving access.
