Admin tools for a marketplace
Internal tools that let a three-person support team handle disputes and payouts in one place.
The problem
A two-sided marketplace ran support from five browser tabs and a spreadsheet. Resolving a dispute took an hour of copying between systems.
What needed to be done
Build a single admin view for disputes, refunds and payouts that a small team could trust.
How the right problem was found
I shadowed the support team for two days and timed each step. I designed one case view with a timeline, clear status and safe actions that confirm before money moves, and tested with the team on real cases.
The outcome, measured
The team resolved disputes much faster and stopped using the spreadsheet.
