5️⃣Day 5: Compile all the information

You've made it! Time to complete the Stellar Community Fund submission.

Day 5 is about bringing everything together into a strong SCF submission. This is the first thing reviewers will see—make it count.

Start completing your SCF Kickstart Award Form

The form: https://airtable.com/appymB1sbp5uidiGe/pagoN7VHSE6jC5sGI/form

Start by choosing your project from the list.

Example: Planet Pay

Enter the title of your submission (Example: StellarRemit - Remittances for South America).

Choose the type of award (Only Kickstart Award is available — easy!)

Follow the format suggested in the form—The One-Sentence Pitch is a good candidate.

Add the link to your Pitch Video — remember to check if it's viewable publicly! A good test is to open the link in a different browser or private navigation window.

Link to your website (create a simple landing page if you don't have one yet)

If you can't open-source your code or you don't have code yet, add a link to a document (Google Doc, for instance) explaining why.

Explain if you're planning to leverage Soroban for this submission

The High-Level overview from your technical document should cover this question, but feel free to reword it to cover all the required information.

Add a public link to your Technical Architecture — remember to check if it's viewable publicly! A good test is to open the link in a different browser or private navigation window.

Describe your traction (by now, you should have talked to users about your idea). If your project exists in other chains, provide traction metrics.

Incorporate learnings from Day 4 and describe your go-to-market plan — Since the SCF Awards are not meant to sustain your project, please explain your business model and cost structure. How are you going to sustain yourself?

Time to describe your team — this part is extremely important because sometimes it tips the balance in your favor if your team has a strong background. Make sure you include your personal LinkedIn profile.

Add a thumbnail — this may be visible on the Stellar Community Fund website, so make sure it's a good one!
