01 / WHAT IT BUILT

What the company did

Fast supplied one-click login and checkout tools to online retailers.

02 / Fast FAILURE REASONS

Failure reasons

Cash spending ran far ahead of revenue growth in 2021, making additional financing difficult as the company entered 2022. A newly announced merchant deal did not resolve that funding position, and management chose to close the checkout service.
