Razorpay Magic is a seamless payment solution designed to streamline online shopping by offering a one-click checkout experience. It uses pre-saved user data, such as addresses and payment methods, to simplify the process and enhance convenience for shoppers. This feature reduces cart abandonment, increases conversions, and empowers businesses to provide a smooth, efficient checkout experience.

Razorpay collaborated with NetBramha Studios to redesign Magic’s checkout system, aiming to enhance both its functionality and user experience. With a strong reputation for user-centric design and process-driven solutions, NetBramha was tasked with addressing usability challenges, ensuring mobile optimization, and delivering a visually intuitive interface. This partnership was essential to transform Razorpay Magic into an industry-leading product that supports both merchants and customers, offering a frictionless and efficient checkout journey.

Challenges

The redesign of Razorpay Magic faced several key challenges, including the need to establish a unique branding identity within a tight timeline. The project had a compressed schedule for planning, knowledge transfer, and execution, requiring swift alignment across teams. Additionally, the design process was complicated by the absence of client feedback, which made it difficult to refine and iterate on design concepts. These constraints necessitated a highly efficient and focused approach to ensure the product met both business and user expectations while maintaining the quality of the final outcome.

NetBramha Studios approached the Razorpay Magic redesign by focusing on creating a seamless and intuitive checkout experience. The solution involved pre-filling user information such as addresses, payment methods, and coupons, enabling a faster, frictionless transaction process. The team employed design thinking to prioritize user goals and pain points, developing clear personas, user flows, and wireframes to guide the process. The final design was optimized for mobile, ensuring a smooth experience across devices. Additionally, Razorpay Magic’s integration capabilities, including native website/app support and third-party plug-ins, were enhanced, allowing users to complete purchases with ease and confidence across various platforms.
