Build the future of FinTech on Account Aggregator

We are tracked, predicted, and sold to an industry worth more than US$150 Billion. Without even knowing it, we consent for our data to be used and exploited. The Account Aggregator launch set in motion a global-first architecture for consented data sharing!

India is pioneering a very important movement — you own your data, not your bank, and not your investment app. Trust us when we say — the AA framework is going to create an orbital change in fin-tech. It’s time to get on the bandwagon now and get a headstart.

There really is no better time for developers and start-ups to understand the intricacies of this system. So come join us — as we invite you all to explore the potential and possibilities the AA framework has to offer. Build, break and bug all you want. Has a start-up idea been tickling your brain? See it come to life at our hackathon!

This hackathon is of developers, by developers, and for developers.

Setu × Devfolio is pleased to announce a two-week-long hackathon filled with exciting workshops, panel discussions, mentorship, giveaways, big cash prizes, community engagement, and even the opportunity to work at Setu!

What are you waiting for? Go ahead and sign up! We suggest bringing along a friend or two, ‘cause what is a hackathon without the spirit of collaboration!

What can you build?

Build your dream fin-tech app on the Account Aggregator framework. Make use of the 20+ different financial data types and bring your ideas to life.

For more inspiration, use this ideas as starting points:

• Hyper personalization of fin-tech: Data enables personalization, and the depth of AA data can do a lot more. What does the Netflix recommendation engine for fin-tech look like?

• Self-driving money: Imagine a world where money could direct itself to the most relevant store: a lender who needs it or an asset instrument with the right risk profile? What does a robo-advisor on AA look like?

• Data usage insights: Where is my data used? How often does an app fetch it? How can users get more control over their own data?

• Better financial habits: Behavioural data can be used to drive better habits. How much should one save given my expense patterns?

• Account Aggregator for Bharat: How would apps inform “digital strugglers” about consents? What would their UX look like?
