Rehive | Fintech Hackathon | FLASH | 21 July 2018

    Rehive Pop up Hackathon 

    Are you a passionate developer, entrepreneur or designer? Team up with other like minded individuals at our hackathon on 21 July 2018 and build your ideas in 24hrs!

    "Hacking is building things that you always wanted to have but no one has built it yet. It's to come up with an amazing idea and work tirelessly on it. It is to fail, fail again and fail better. Try out new things and learn while doing that. It's to work together, collaborate and build things that are innovative. It is to be a better programmer." -Anonymous

    About us

    Rehive is a platform and toolkit for developing and launching fintech apps. Our mission is to accelerate fintech innovation by breaking down the technology barriers for launching new fintech businesses. We believe it should be as easy to setup a fintech business, as it is to setup an e-commerce store on Shopify. We are backed by leading investors including Tim Draper (investor in Tesla, Skype, Twitch), Jed McCaleb (co-founder of Ripple and Stellar), Jesse Powell (CEO of Kraken) and more.

    We believe we are the fastest and most affordable way for you to build and launch your fintech app. Test us and let us know if it's true!
