In the words of Mr. William Shatner himself, “Having been to space myself, I can't express how incredible an opportunity this is for software developers all over the world. It's an experience I wouldn't trade for anything. I'm excited to partner with Rapyd to spread the word to the developers worldwide to join the Rapyd Developer Community and complete the puzzles for a chance to win a trip to the edge of space.”
Hack the Galaxy was a challenge to developers all over the world to solve a series of virtual puzzles to win tickets to ride to the edge of space in a private capsule launching in 2026 (or a series of other prizes), with the end goal of increasing the number of member in the Rapyd Developer Community. Through an integrated global campaign featuring William Shatner, and a series of puzzles created by a world-renowned puzzle master, we were able to increase our community membership by over 50,000 members in less than half the time expected. Brilliant!
