The Problem

High Friction, Disjointed Flows, Few Accounts

Fans juggled up to five accounts across NFL properties. Signup was slow, fragmented, and offered little value. It was a blocker for NFL+, loyalty programs, and CRM. We streamlined account creation and management, starting with mobile, then scaling to web and TV.

"I get lost with the number of accounts I need and half of them I'm not sure why I need them."

The solution

Streamlined Flow, Designed for Conversion

Simplified sign-up (fewer fields, cleaner layout), deferred optional steps, and made account actions more visible.

Impact

Faster, Easier, Adopted League-Wide

The redesign doubled logged-in visits, cut signup time by 23 seconds, and improved sign-up success by 8%. The unified account system was adopted by 70 NFL properties.

"Sign-up was super quick and intuitive."
