Systemic Funnel Failure
The "Get in touch" page serves as a dead end for all CTAs. Accident Insurance inquiries redirect to a page with Pension Plan imagery, causing immediate user distrust.
Impact: Direct Revenue Loss

UX UI Conversion Analysis - BayernLíf

Lead Conversion Optimization
Date:
December 2025
Executive Summary
The BayernLíf website establishes a baseline of trust through its visual association with a large German insurance holding. However, the site suffers from systemic failures in its lead generation funnels.
💡 Key Insight:
The primary barrier to growth is not lack of traffic, but the active destruction of user intent by the website's structure and broken paths.
Current State Analysis
The website demonstrates strong brand presence through its Bayern Insurance Group affiliation, but this trust equity is systematically undermined by fundamental conversion barriers. Our analysis identified four critical failure points that actively prevent qualified leads from entering the sales pipeline.
Impact Assessment
These issues compound to create a situation where traffic acquisition costs are wasted due to preventable conversion failures. The most severe blocker—the German-language pension calculator—represents a 100% abandonment point for Icelandic users, while the mismatched contact pages create immediate trust erosion at the critical moment of inquiry.
Language Failure
The "Calculate Pension" tool redirects to a German-language interface within the Icelandic funnel - a 100% blocker for the core market.
Impact: Market Alienation

Information Architecture Confusion
Navigation uses "Life Insurance" while homepage displays "Pension Plans" for the same product. Homepage cards link to contact forms instead of product pages.
Impact: Strategic Confusion

Mobile Usability Friction
A sticky timeline element occupies valuable mobile screen space without conversion value. Long benefit lists overwhelm users without accordions or tabs.
Impact: Traffic Loss

Strategic Recommendations
Phase 1: Immediate Conversion Fixes
Timeline: Weeks 1-4 | Focus: Stop the bleeding
- Fix Homepage Product Cards: Rename "Pension Plans" to "Life Insurance" to match navigation. Route cards to product subpages, not contact forms. Change CTA from "Get in touch" to "Learn More".
- Implement Dedicated Landing Pages: Create unique contact pages for each product with contextual imagery and pre-filled product fields.
- Localize Calculator Tool: Immediately replace German interface with Icelandic translation or disable until fixed.
- Mobile Optimization: Replace sticky timeline with conversion-focused CTA. Implement accordions for benefit lists.
Phase 2: Product Information Enhancement
Timeline: Weeks 5-8 | Focus: Enable self-service research
- Restructure Product Pages: Add clear pricing indicators, comparison tables, and FAQ sections.
- Document Repository: Create dedicated "Key Documents" section separate from generic service page.
- Trust Signals: Add customer testimonials, claim statistics, and Bayern backing prominently.
Phase 3: Conversion Optimization
Timeline: Weeks 9-12 | Focus: Maximize qualified leads
- Implement Progressive Disclosure: Use multi-step forms with progress indicators to reduce abandonment.
- A/B Testing Framework: Test CTA copy, form fields, and page layouts systematically.
- Analytics Enhancement: Implement funnel tracking, heatmaps, and session recordings.
