THE MISSION
70% of online carts are abandoned and businesses are leaving $260 billion dollars a year on the table because of bad checkout experiences.
This is an astronomical opportunity for developers who can build a better checkout.
We're challenging developers to use Rapyd's Hosted Checkout Toolkit to rethink checkout and we're giving away really big prizes to make it happen.
From embedding checkout into ads and invoices to adding checkout to new applications and creating better experiences – assemble your team (max 4) and see if you have the right stuff.
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
Cash prizes are just the beginning. Winners also get to present their ideas at Rapyd Demo Days for a chance to win an even bigger prize!
Rapyd Hack the Galaxy is a series of hackathons and challenges that give fintech developers the competitive pitch to showcase your work/code (it is your code and IP btw) to win a really amazing prize. – plus dozens of other prizes throughout the year.
Get your team. Get to coding. And get ready to Hack the Galaxy!
P.S. Registration site will go live 21 April but you can always explore our developer community to learn more about the challenge.
