Acceptance Criteria

To be considered, your application must be a finished project and include a link to a Repl or Github repository.

Your project will be evaluated on the following criteria:

• The end user experience should be simple and approachable. The goal is to create easy-mode for tokengated loyalty and brand collaborations. Avoid using crypto jargon, abstract away unfamiliar web3 patterns, and focus on ease of use.
• Creative and innovative solution grounded in real-world e-commerce use cases. Think big—we’re looking for unique use cases of Gates API, Blockchain components, and CommerceKit, but make sure your solution brings value to merchants and buyers.
• Your solution serves a diverse set of merchants and buyers. Keep merchant size, industry, demographic, web3 literacy, and other dimensions of merchant and buyer diversity in mind. Your solution should also aim to be blockchain agnostic.
• Bonus points: if you include a video demo showing off your submission!

Replit x Shopify x thirdweb
