“(discount-heavy feed — visual similarity to the pre-rebrand platform)”
Wish earned its trust deficit through years of expectation-vs-reality mismatches. The current page still leads with the same ultra-low prices and deal-stack UI that defined that era. Burned visitors see no visual signal that anything has changed and leave within seconds.
“Lead the hero with the change: "Wish, rebuilt. Verified merchants only. Quality-checked before it ships. Not the Wish you remember." Make the rebrand impossible to miss.”
When trust is the binding constraint, the page must explicitly address the objection rather than hoping new features speak for themselves. Acknowledging the past earns more credibility than ignoring it.
