​We round up with short presentations so everyone can celebrate wins and swap bright ideas. Come for the code, stay later for the snacks and conversation, and leave with something you can actually show off.

​

​Judging criteria

​•	Agentic Business Value: How well the solution uses autonomous/agentic workflows to create real commercial value — improving conversions, reducing manual effort, enabling new shopping experiences, or unlocking measurable revenue impact.
•	Technical Agentic Capability: The sophistication of the autonomous agents (planning, reasoning, tool use, multi-agent coordination), integration with commerce systems (catalogs, payments, logistics), and overall scalability and reliability of the architecture.
•	Pitch & Demonstration Quality: How clearly the team explains the problem, showcases the agentic solution in action, and communicates the potential for real-world deployment — including a compelling demo of agentic behaviour.
•       Coach-ability and Collaboration : our 6 judges will go around, troubleshoot and be very available to “unstuck” the teams. We want to reward those that make the most of it, as well as teams demonstrating strong in-team collaboration.

​

​Judges Raj, Liam, Sandro from Stripe, YC engineer Arthur, hackathon winner Szymon, and our very own Jerome Leclanche will be on hand to help you prototype bold payment experiences that act on behalf of users.

​Host Cedric Sounard will make sure all goes smoothly in an intense and educational event. Expect a lively crowd, upbeat tunes, and a chance to push the boundaries of what payments can do when agents and automation meet real-world flows.
