Science-backed pet wellness —
certifications that were finally visible.

Wellie is an Indian pet wellness brand offering functional dog treats made with clean ingredients and backed by science, founded by Tarini. Their products — formulated for specific health benefits like joint support, digestion, and skin health — are designed for the growing number of conscious Indian dog parents who approach their pets' nutrition with the same care as their own.

We revamped Wellie's product detail pages with enhanced UI/UX and strategic trust-building elements tailored for the dog parent audience — implementing certification badges, enhanced product information, trust signals, and a social proof framework — significantly increasing conversion rates and reducing purchase hesitation.

Built for the dog parent researching ingredients before purchasing, the founder whose certifications weren't surfaced, and the growth lead watching high-intent traffic leave without buying.

Three people needed the product page to do more work — a dog parent hesitating over safety certifications, a brand manager whose clinical formulations deserved clinical presentation, and a founder watching conversion data reveal persistent purchase hesitation.

Dog parent · researching functional treats for her Labrador

Dog parents approaching pet nutrition with the same scrutiny they applied to their own diet needed to see certifications, ingredient sourcing, and formulation science before committing to a product. That evidence existed but was not surfaced clearly on the product page — and the resulting hesitation was enough to prevent the purchase.

Founder · Wellie

Wellie's formulations carried FDA, GMP, FEDIAF, ISO, and HACCP certifications, and the ingredients were clean and science-backed. But the product page was not communicating that standard. Conscious dog parents — Wellie's core customer — arrived at the PDP and could not find the evidence they needed to buy.

Growth & Product Lead · Wellie

Conversion data revealed a consistent pattern: high-intent traffic from dog parent communities was arriving at the PDP, spending limited time, and leaving without purchasing. The behavioral signal pointed to a page that was not answering the questions that intent-driven visitors needed resolved before they could buy.

📉 High-intent traffic converting at below-expected rates — PDP not resolving purchase hesitation

Wellie's FDA, GMP, and FEDIAF certifications were buried on a PDP that conscious dog parents couldn't trust.

Wellie's target customer — a conscious, informed dog parent like Shreya — approaches pet nutrition with the same scrutiny they apply to their own food. They want to see certifications, understand ingredient sourcing, read formulation science, and hear from other dog parents before committing to a product they'll give their dog daily. The existing PDP had the product information but not the trust architecture: certifications were buried, scientific backing wasn't presented accessibly, and social proof was minimal.

Tarini's challenge was that the gap between Wellie's actual quality — multiple certifications, clean science-backed formulations, rigorous quality standards — and what was visible on the product page was significant. Vivek's conversion data confirmed the cost: high-intent traffic from pet wellness communities was arriving, reading, not finding what it needed, and leaving. The page needed to be rebuilt around the dog parent's specific decision framework, not the generic e-commerce product page template.

A pet wellness brand with exceptional certifications and formulation standards — communicating them in a way that cautious dog parents couldn't easily find.

Complexity factors at the start
Certification visibility on PDPsBuried — not immediately prominent
Scientific formulation evidence accessibilityInsufficient — requires effort to find
Social proof and pet parent testimonialsMinimal — not prominently featured
Conversion rate for high-intent pet parent trafficBelow expected for traffic quality
Trust signal architecture for safety-conscious audienceAbsent — no structured credibility framework

PDP revamp with above-the-fold certification badges, ingredient transparency sections, and a dog parent-focused content hierarchy.

The PDP revamp was built to give Shreya the certifications she was looking for, give Tarini's formulation science the prominence it earned, and convert Vivek's high-intent traffic at the rate the product quality deserved.

🏆

Prominent Certification Badge Display

Implemented prominent, visually clear certification badges — FDA, GMP, FEDIAF, ISO, HACCP — displayed above the fold on all PDPs, immediately answering Shreya's first question before she has to scroll to find it.

Human-Centricity

Clean Ingredient and Science Information

Enhanced product information sections highlighting clean ingredients, science-backed formulations, and specific health benefit evidence — structured to be readable and actionable for the health-conscious dog parent audience.

Dog Parent-Focused Content Architecture

Redesigned PDP information layout around the specific questions conscious dog parents ask — safety first, then ingredients, then formulation science, then dosage, then testimonials — in the order that matches Shreya's decision framework.

Human-Centricity

Customer Testimonials and Video Proof

Integrated customer testimonials, product reviews, and video testimonials from satisfied dog parents throughout the PDPs — social proof from the community that matters most to new customers evaluating safety.

on both sides of the screen.

🐕

Trust Built in the First Scroll

Shreya arrives at a Wellie PDP and sees certification badges immediately — FDA, GMP, FEDIAF, ISO, HACCP — before she reads a single word about the product. The certifications answer her first concern. She reads the ingredient list with confidence rather than skepticism.

🌿

Science Visible and Accessible

Tarini's formulation science is communicated accessibly on the PDP — not buried in a FAQ tab or a technical sheet, but presented in the product story itself. The premium quality is visible to the dog parent who is looking for exactly this level of rigor.

📊

Intent That Converts

Vivek's high-intent traffic from pet wellness communities now lands on a PDP that answers the questions that traffic was asking. The behavioral signal changes — shorter sessions become more decisive, and the conversion rate rises to match the quality of the audience.

📈

Premium Positioning Expressed

Wellie's premium clean pet wellness positioning is fully expressed on every product page — the certifications, the science, the testimonials, and the transparency that separates Wellie from commodity pet treats. The PDP earns the premium that the product deserves.
