Booksy wallet: a 3-day vibe-coded redesign
Booksy Business's wallet buried its most-used actions behind bad information architecture and gave support agents no way to explain payout problems to frustrated providers. This case study covers a solo, three-day vibe-coded prototype built to validate a full redesign before committing engineering resources to it.

Executive summary
Booksy Business's wallet had eight distinct UX problems identified through audit, from buried financial stats to a fast payout flow with no destination choice, and a support queue where the highest-severity ticket category (Payout Blocked/Held, 97.6% severity rate) was an architecture and visibility problem the interface did nothing to soften. Rather than route this through a standard design-to-dev cycle, the redesign was vibe-coded solo in Cursor: a fully interactive prototype, complete with haptics, micro-sound, and motion feedback, built in three days to validate the direction before committing engineering time to it.
This is a concept-stage project. No usability testing or production data exists yet; every claim below is either a design decision already shipped in the prototype or a business hypothesis flagged as such.
