Example
What good looks like
Zurich enables customers to easily see what is covered by their car insurance and what is not.
Booking.com states what is included in the room and what is not using simple language and visuals.
AirFrance enables users to understand what is covered and included in the price and what is not using bold font and icons.
NatWest helps customers to compare mortgage rates by highlighting key information (monthly payment, fixed rates).
What bad looks like
Evernote doesn’t display many unique product features for each offering which in turn provides a dull experience for potential customers.
