Account creation required — the main barrier to payment completion 1.0×

Interviews, cohort analysis and experimentation identified account creation as the primary barrier to payment completion. Making it optional doubled conversion.

Approach

Six and a half years across B2B2C payments, two-sided platforms and operational tooling. Payments depth from checkout down to infrastructure: a Magento→Zuora provider migration, an 80% cut in fraud, and self-service paywall and checkout flows.

The through-line is building the practice, not just the product — discovery, experimentation and a metrics foundation at companies that didn't have one yet, and six product managers coached along the way.

Selected work

Senior Product Manager, Supertab

Aug 2025 – Mar 2026

End-to-end discovery and strategy for a B2B2C paywall connecting publishers with their end users through a reusable, personalizable self-service checkout.

  • Made account creation optional after identifying it as the main barrier to payment completion — doubling conversion.
  • Built the company's metrics foundation: ran the data workshop, then owned the dashboards in PostHog, Metabase and Periscope.
  • Set up a newly formed cross-functional team and moved it from Scrum to Kanban; coached 2 PMs on experiment design and metrics.

Senior Product Manager, limehome

Feb 2022 – Jul 2025

Operational platforms for a digital hospitality operator — the systems the field and operations teams run the business on.

  • Inherited 4 fragmented products with no shared infrastructure; validated the concept with an Airtable prototype, then defined a 3-year strategy and drove it to production.
  • Owned a real-time bidirectional Apaleo PMS integration covering reservations, billing, room inventory and housekeeping across 100+ European cities.
  • Redesigned the operational products for cleaning teams and internal operations, doubling adoption and halving time lost to repeated actions.

Product Manager, InterNations

Aug 2019 – Sep 2021

A two-sided platform connecting members with volunteer Consuls, across web, iOS and Android.

  • Led the payment provider migration from Magento to Zuora — full payment, billing and subscription schema, planned with engineering and rolled out to support.
  • Cut fraud by over 80%: analyzed its effect on activity and retention, piloted and selected prevention tooling, led the rollout.
  • Improved registration, onboarding, upgrade and dunning flows: +20% finished registrations, +25% upgrades.
