Journey map the American Express Web provisioning journey to foster a shared vision of what a best in class Card member experience can be.

What is Web Provisioning?

New or existing card members may not want to wait for a new card to begin spending or continue spending without interuption. Web provisioning allows the credit card customer to link their new or existing card account directly to a mobile wallet like Samsung or Apple Pay. Our goal is to integrate this feature into the customers online card replacement experience. This will allow the Card Member to link their new or existing card (with card number) into a mobile wallet of their choice, so that they keep continuous use of their card (via mobile wallet) while the new physical card is mailed to them. Web provisioning reduces the length of spend interruption and saves cost on rush shipping.

What outcome are we trying to drive?

Spend: Prevent spend interruption until new card arrives.

Cost saves: due to rush shipping fewer replacement cards, as token provisioning decreases the time that a CM is without ability to spend on the network.

Agenda

Customer journey mapping session was divided into two 1 hour sessions held on Wednesday 9.27.17 and Thursday 10.5.17.

• Introduction (15 min) - Introduce participants, review agenda, discuss outcome of mapping session, explain journey maps, present the Mobile provisioning problem statement.
• Brainstorm Use Cases (10 min) - Team to use stickies to brainstorm use cases/triggers/life events that would require the need for web provisioning. Use cases will serve as entry points into our journey map (e.g. I lost my card while traveling or I damaged my card and do not want to have a disruption in service). Individuals to place stickies on a wall for review.
• Affinity Mapping (10 mins) - Individuals read out thier use cases that are then grouped into common themes.
• Individual Journey Map Sketching (15 min) - Individual stakeholders sketch out a journey map describing the web provisioning happy path based on their use cases.
• Individuals Present Journey Map (15 mins) - Individual stakeholders present their journey map to team. Team votes for one theme to map out.
• White board journey map (35 mins) - Map out the end to end journey of selected theme to identify channel(s) (e.g. email, ocr), define touchpoints, talk through customer highs and lows within the jounrey, and identify pain points and discover opportunities at each step within the journey map.

What's a journey map?

Introduction

A customer journey map is a visualization of the process that a person goes through in order to accomplish a goal. It’s used for understanding and addressing customer needs and pain points. In its most basic form, journey mapping starts by compiling a series of user goals and actions into a timeline skeleton. Next, the skeleton is fleshed out with user thoughts and emotions in in order to create a narrative. Finally, that narrative is condensed into a visualization used to communicate insights that will inform design processes.
