Overview
Spot is a modern insurance platform built for experience-driven businesses across travel, outdoor activities, events, and more. Its solutions help businesses protect revenue, offer customers greater flexibility, and simplify the way insurance is integrated into the customer journey. With a technology-first approach, Spot is making insurance more accessible, flexible, and relevant to the businesses and experiences people value.
The Problems
Insurance is complicated. Spot didn’t want its website to be.
Insurance isn’t usually the first thing people get excited about. But Spot operates in a world that is anything but ordinary. Its customers include businesses in travel, outdoor activities, events, and other experience-led markets. They need to protect revenue, give customers more flexibility, and keep operations running smoothly. Spot offers multiple protection solutions, including Refund Guarantee, Travel Insurance, and Injury Insurance. That breadth is valuable, but it also creates a communication challenge.
We needed the website to answer a few important questions quickly:
- What does Spot actually do?
- Who is it built for?
- Which solution is right for my business?
- How does it work?
- How does it fit into an existing customer journey?
- What should I do next?
And we needed to do all of this without making visitors work their way through complicated insurance terminology. There was another important consideration: Spot isn’t a traditional insurance company. Its customers live in a world of travel, adventure, outdoor activities, events, and technology. The website needed to feel like it belonged in that world. A conventional insurance website simply wouldn’t tell that story well.
What We Focused On
01 – Clarity
Complex products need simple explanations. We focused on stronger content hierarchy, clearer messaging, and page structures that help visitors scan and understand the important information quickly.
02 – Better Product Storytelling
Each product needed to answer a simple question: ‘Why would my business need this?’ We connected the product story to the business or customer problem it solves, rather than leading with insurance terminology. Refund Guarantee is a good example. Customers want flexibility when plans change, while businesses don’t want to absorb the full cost of cancellations. Framing the product around that tension makes its value easier to understand.
03 – Clearer Journeys
Spot doesn’t have just one type of visitor. A business decision-maker, a customer, and a technical user may all arrive with very different questions.
We therefore treated the website as a collection of connected journeys:
- Business visitors: Discover → Understand → Evaluate → Get started
- Customers: Understand coverage → Get help → Manage coverage
- Technical users: Understand integration → Explore → Implement
The goal wasn’t to make visitors explore the whole website. It was to help them find their next step.
04 – A Brand That Feels Like Spot
Spot is about movement, travel, outdoor experiences, and activity. We wanted the digital experience to carry that energy while still creating the clarity and confidence people expect from an insurance brand.
Our Role
UX Strategy
We mapped the experience around user needs, business priorities, and the information visitors needed to make decisions.
UI Design
We developed the visual interface to give Spot a distinctive, polished, and consistent digital presence.
Product Storytelling
We structured the product content to make each offering easier to present and navigate.
Web Development
We brought the approved designs to life as a responsive and functional web experience.
Our Approach
We started with the people, not the products.
Instead of asking “How do we explain Spot’s insurance products?”, we asked “What does someone actually need to understand before they decide to work with Spot?”
Problem → Value → Solution → Action
That became the guiding principle behind the experience. Rather than leading with the product, we led with the business problem it solves — cancellations, revenue protection, customer expectations, operational complexity. Once visitors understood the problem, the solution made sense on its own.
Before thinking about individual screens, we looked at the people arriving on the website and what each of them needed to accomplish. That helped us make decisions about information hierarchy, page structure, product presentation, calls to action, and the overall flow. The result is an experience designed to move visitors from curiosity to understanding—and from understanding to action.
Our Process
Understand → Structure → Design → Refine
Turning Products Into Stories
A product page shouldn't feel like a policy document.
This became another important principle. Spot's solutions solve different problems, so each product needs its own story.
Refund Guarantee
Customers want flexibility when plans change. Businesses want to protect booking revenue. The product story connects those two needs.
Travel Insurance
Travel plans can change unexpectedly. The experience needs to make the value of additional protection easy to understand.
Injury Insurance
Active experiences can involve risk. The product story should help customers understand the protection available without overwhelming them with detail.

Results & Project Impact
From a complex insurance proposition to a clearer digital story.
Our work helped shape a digital experience where visitors can understand Spot’s proposition more easily, explore its solutions more naturally, and find a clear next step without unnecessary friction.
But the bigger outcome is about perception. Spot doesn’t want to be seen simply as another insurance provider. It is positioning itself as a technology-driven partner for businesses built around experiences.
The digital experience needed to communicate exactly that: modern, flexible, experience-led, and easy to understand.
