Judging Process

Judging Criteria

The spirit of the FinTech Breakthrough Awards is to highlight the BREAK THROUGH products, solutions and companies within the crowded FinTech market.

We intentionally keep the submission process simple, focused on nominees addressing the question – “How does your company or product break through the crowded FinTech market?”

The evaluation criteria for the FinTech Breakthrough Awards program are focused around the concept of innovation. We have developed the evaluation criteria and a corresponding set of assessment tools and scales that we believe allow for a fair, honest and equitable assessment of each entry.

All entries will be judged on the FinTech Breakthrough criteria:

Performance

Ease of Use

Functionality

Value

Impact
