How UI/UX Design Impacts Conversion Rates and Customer Trust

In 2025, having a website isn’t enough your business needs a user experience (UX) that converts visitors into loyal customers. Whether you run an e-commerce store, a corporate site, or a startup landing page, the way users interact with your website determines how much they trust your brand and whether they take action.

Let’s explore how UI/UX design impacts conversion rates and customer trust, and how the PSG Grant helps Singapore businesses upgrade their websites with professional design and usability improvements.

What Is UI/UX Design?

UI (User Interface) focuses on how your website looks colors, buttons, typography, and layout.
UX (User Experience) focuses on how it feels how easy it is for users to navigate, find information, and complete their goals.

When combined, UI/UX design ensures your website not only looks good but also performs efficiently and converts better.
