Rest Member Onboarding
Customer Journey and CRM Experience
Joining a super fund is one of the most important financial decisions people make, yet for many Australians it's also one of the least understood.
Rest reimagined member onboarding as an experience rather than a series of transactional emails. By combining customer journey thinking, modular CRM design and a more human tone of voice, we transformed onboarding into a connected experience that helped members understand, manage and engage with their super from day one.

For many members, superannuation feels complicated, impersonal and easy to ignore.
The challenge wasn't simply delivering information—it was helping people feel confident enough to take action. Every communication was designed to reduce complexity, encourage small, achievable steps and build trust over time, making super feel less intimidating and more relevant to everyday life.
-
No two members join in the same way.
The onboarding journey was designed as a flexible CRM system that adapted to different member scenarios, including age, funding status and app adoption. Modular templates, reusable content blocks and consistent design principles created a scalable experience that could evolve while maintaining a cohesive brand across every touchpoint.

Great CRM isn't just beautifully designed—it's designed to work every day.
The system balanced flexibility with consistency, giving internal teams a practical framework for building future communications while ensuring every email felt recognisably Rest. Clear hierarchy, thoughtful UX, approachable art direction and reusable modules helped transform a complex onboarding programme into an intuitive experience for both members and marketers.
