UX WRITING CHALLENGE DAY 9 


Proactivity
UX Writing Challenge 



THE SCENARIO

The user is trying to rent a car using an application but the credit card on file has expired.





THE CHALLENGE

Write them an error message so that they can correct the problem.


Headline: 30 characters max
Body: 45 characters max




THE RESEARCH

On this occasion, I used Jane Ruffino’s  Microcopy Canvas as a tool to help me understand better the user’s situation. It was pretty clear that renting a car is not an enjoyable task.


THE SOLUTION

I designed my message to be concise and direct, irritating the user as less as possible and helping him to solve the problem asap in order to finish his task. I came up with slightly different approaches to design the message.






This was the final proposal I prototyped.
