UX/UI Design Case Study: Holland Casino Online Promotions
Client: Holland Casino (via Playtech/Digital Beat)
Role: Graphic Designer
For these landing pages, I designed the desktop and mobile experiences for three new Holland Casino sports betting promotions: Darts Combi Boost, Football Combi Boost, and The Free Bet Club. My goal was to create visually engaging, conversion-focused pages that clearly explain each promotion and drive user registration.

Clarity: Simplify complex promo rules with clear, step-by-step visuals.
-
Engagement: Use compelling hero images to immediately grab attention.
-
Consistency: Maintain Holland Casino’s brand guidelines across typography, colors, and iconography.
-
Conversion: Optimize CTAs for immediate action on both mobile and desktop.
