Transforming SHARE into One of the UAE's Leading Rewards Programs

Loyalty, Payments & Gifting

As Head of Design for SHARE at Majid Al Futtaim, I led the design transformation of a loyalty program into a connected experience for rewards, payments, and gifting — supporting membership growth from 2 million to over 8 million.

I set the design direction across an expanding partner ecosystem, evolving membership tiers and SHARE VIP, introducing SHARE Pay, and reimagining the digital wallet and gift card experience. The ambition was to make SHARE more valuable in everyday life, with simpler ways to pay, redeem rewards, and share benefits.

That vision extended to the smallest interactions. I created SHARE VIP's motion language, using subtle parallax, card reveals, and barcode interactions to make membership status feel tangible and rewarding.

The broader transformation supported 4× membership growth, 545,000 digital gift cards sold in 2024, and a 35% reduction in checkout drop-offs — connecting design leadership and craft with measurable business outcomes.
