Abstract

Credit cards are becoming an important marketing tool that reveals brand identity beyond payment methods. The purpose of this study is to suggest an effective design strategy plan by analyzing credit card design case that provided a positive brand experience among the cases of implementing the brand identity of a domestic credit card. The design of a representative credit card brand in Korea was analyzed according to Schmidt's experience type. As a result of analysis, when designing a credit card, it maximizes the visual effect with colors suitable for each theme, presents a multi-faceted experience that stimulates the five senses of the consumer, and provides an active brand experience that can reminisce the benefits of a credit card. It was found to be effective in revealing the brand identity. This study is meaningful in that local credit card companies offer design directions that can positively imprint brands on consumers through credit card designs.

신용카드가 결제 수단을 넘어 브랜드 아이덴티티를 드러내는 중요한 마케팅 도구로 자리 잡고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 신용카드의 브랜드 아이덴티티를 구현한 사례 중에서 긍정적인 브랜드 경험을 제공한 신용카드 디자인 사례를 분석하여 효과적인 디자인 전략 방안을 제시하는 것이 목적이다. 국내 대표 신용카드 브랜드의 디자인을 번 슈미트의 경험유형에 따라 분석했다. 분석 결과 신용카드를 디자인할 때 각 테마에 맞는 색상으로 시각적인 효과를 극대화하고, 소비자의 오감을 자극하고 나아가 신용카드가 주는 혜택 등을 연상할 수 있는 인지 및 감성 경험을 제공하는 것이 브랜드 아이덴티티를 드러내는데 효과적이라고 나타났다. 본 연구는 국내 카드사가 신용카드 디자인을 통해 브랜드를 소비자들에게 긍정적으로 각인시킬 수 있는 디자인 방향을 제시하는 데 의의가 있다.
