CEO Vision: Rapyd is the world's leading cardless financial network. Our technology allows businesses to partner with us in two ways: By integrating our API into their existing infrastructure, or using the Rapyd network to provide their customers with the full spectrum of our services. These core features include cardless withdrawals, deposits and payments across a global network of ATMs, self-service kiosks and POS. Financial transactions can be made with the simple swipe of a smart or feature phone -- no bank account or card needed.

A PROBLEM AT AN INFINITE SCALE

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 a problem that must be solved.

THE MISSION

We’re calling all developers to use Rapyd’s Hosted Checkout Toolkit to rethink checkout. 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.

In addition to cash prizes, the winning teams will receive a trip to Lisbon to compete at Rapyd Demo Days. At Demo Days, your team (max 4 people) will pitch your idea for a chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime journey.

WHAT TO BUILD

An embed-able checkout experience using Rapyd’s Hosted Checkout Toolkit. Judges will be looking for projects that showcase non-traditional or new checkout experiences such as B2B digital payment experiences, gaming, digital ads, omnichannel, or product experiences that could use an embed-able checkout.
