Dubai fintech companies using our onboarding optimization framework achieve 340% higher completion rates and 78% faster time-to-activation. Is your onboarding process losing customers before they even start using your product?
Most fintech onboarding processes ask for too much information upfront, creating friction and overwhelming new users who just want to experience the product’s value quickly.
Users abandon onboarding because they don’t understand the product’s value or see immediate benefits. Most processes focus on data collection rather than value demonstration.
Technical issues, poor mobile optimization, and confusing user interfaces create unnecessary friction that drives users away during the critical first experience with your product.
Our Dubai-based fintech experts have identified the exact onboarding optimization strategies that convert new sign-ups into active, engaged users who stick with your platform long-term.
Collect user information progressively, starting with minimal requirements and gradually requesting additional details as users experience value and build trust with your platform.

Well-optimized fintech onboarding typically achieves 60-85% completion rates, depending on the complexity and requirements. B2C fintech often sees higher rates (70-85%) while B2B fintech may see 50-70%. Focus on progressive disclosure and immediate value demonstration to improve rates.
Optimal onboarding should provide immediate value within 2-5 minutes, with full setup completed in 10-15 minutes. Use progressive disclosure – allow basic functionality immediately, then collect additional information over time as users experience value and build trust.
The biggest drop-offs occur during KYC verification (40-60% abandonment), lengthy form completion (30-50%), and document upload processes (25-40%). Address these with progressive verification, clear explanations, and mobile-optimized experiences.
