Previous roadmap - Q1 2024

Hyperswitch roadmap (Jan to Mar' 24)

🗺️ Our Roadmap typically pans out over a 3-month period and we establish topics we work on upfront.

Before the beginning of every quarter we come together to develop the next roadmap based on our core values, previous roadmap, findings over the previous quarter, what we heard from the community as feature requests.

👂And as always, we listen to your feedback and adapt our plans if needed.

Core Values

Our core values have pretty much remained the same since the early days and here they are:

• Make payments more accessible and affordable to every digital business

• Staying simple and super-lightweight, and at the same time reliable and scalable payment switch

• Being community-first in ideation, planning and execution of features
