Quote My Trip
Transforming a Travel Marketplace Through Strategy, UX & Product Design
Project Overview
Quote My Trip is a next-generation travel marketplace that connects travellers with verified travel specialists through a competitive quotation system. Instead of searching multiple travel websites or contacting different agencies, travellers submit one trip request and receive personalised quotes from experienced travel specialists. They compare their options, stay in control of their personal information, and choose who they’d like to work with. Our role was to transform a complex business idea into an intuitive digital product that delivers a seamless experience for both travellers and travel professionals.

Our Approach
Rather than jumping straight into design, we began with product discovery. We reviewed the business model, mapped user journeys, researched competing platforms, analysed marketplace workflows and validated ideas through customer research. This allowed us to design a platform around real user behaviour instead of assumptions.
Research & Strategy
Our design decisions were backed by customer insights. The research revealed several key findings: Users valued expert travel advice over traditional booking sites. Trust and privacy were essential. Guided trip requests improved the experience. Visual quote comparisons were preferred. Users wanted full control over their contact details. These insights shaped the product strategy and user experience.
UX & Product Design
We redesigned the entire customer journey to make the platform easy to understand and effortless to use. Key improvements included: Homepage redesign. Guided trip request flow. Interactive quote comparison. Privacy-first communication. Traveller & specialist dashboards. Mobile-responsive design. Every screen was designed with one objective: reduce friction and increase confidence.
Results
The redesigned platform delivers a significantly clearer and more engaging user experience. The product now: Clearly communicates its unique value proposition. Builds trust from the first interaction. Simplifies the travel quotation process. Protects customer privacy. Provides an intuitive experience for both travellers and specialists.
