Description

SportStakr is a mobile app designed for sports enthusiasts to plan travel around live sporting events. The app removes the hassle of juggling multiple platforms by introducing an innovative stack-based filtering system.

Instead of overwhelming users with filters, SportStakr guides them progressively β€” location, date, league, and team β€” to generate curated, personalized event results with direct booking via Ticketmaster.

The end product was a polished Figma prototype that streamlined event discovery into 4 steps, reduced decision fatigue, and showcased an end-to-end booking journey.

  • Developed guided stack-based filtering to simplify discovery.
  • Prototyped complete event booking flow in Figma.
  • Integrated Ticketmaster checkout with trust-building progress indicators.
  • Validated design through usability testing and iteration.
  • Delivered a case study highlighting expertise in user-centered design.

Problem Statement

Sports fans face challenges planning trips around live events: Multiple sources for schedules and tickets. Difficulty aligning events with travel plans. Overwhelming filtering options without guidance. SportStakr’s goal was to create a guidexd journey where users could build a customized stack of preferences (location, date, league, team) and instantly receive relevant event results with integrated ticket booking.

Solution

I designed SportStakr as a step-by-step event discovery and booking platform. Instead of throwing dozens of filters at the user upfront, the app guides them through progressive stacking of preferences β€” one decision at a time.The end result is a curated, personalized list of events, with a direct path to booking via Ticketmaster integration.

I'm planning a trip to New York next month and need to catch my Giants play. SportStakr's stack system helped me find their home game against the Eagles on the exact weekend I'll be there.

✈️ The Spontaneous Traveler

I had a last-minute business trip to LA and used the 'I'm flexible' date option. Discovered an amazing Lakers vs Warriors game that perfectly fit my schedule!

🏟️ The Group Planner

Planning a bachelor party in Miami, and we all love different sports. The league selection helped us find both Heat basketball and Marlins baseball games during our stay.

🎫 The First-Time Buyer

I was nervous about buying tickets online, but SportStakr's guided checkout with Ticketmaster made me feel confident. The progress indicator showed exactly where I was in the process.

πŸ”„ The Repeat User

I love how SportStakr remembers my preferences. When I searched for my next trip, it suggested similar events based on my previous bookings and searches.

As someone visiting from Europe, I had no idea about American sports schedules. The location-based discovery helped me find exciting games near my hotel without any prior knowledge.
