Adyen is hosting a Hackathon in Amsterdam, on Saturday 9th of February 2019.  Join us for day full of fun, meeting new people and building creative solutions!
The challenge
In a team with diverse skills and backgrounds, you are going to build a functional website for a company of your choosing, using our <A HREF="https://docs.adyen.com/developers/checkout/integrations-overview" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="Checkout API" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Checkout API.</A> Your team should address the problems this company faces when having shoppers pay through their website, including issues such as handling risky/fraudulent transactions, redirecting to local payment methods, saving sensitive shopper information, and so on.
