Integration Track
The Integration Track supports applications leveraging existing building blocks on Stellar to enable everyday financial services, creating a plug-and-play experience for builders submitting to the SCF.
Rather than reinventing the wheel, this track focuses on composability — integrating wallets, assets, on- and off-ramps, and DeFi protocols to create a more connected, user-ready ecosystem.
✅ Who This Track Is For
Teams that have applications with existing traction integrating with:
Stellar wallets
Anchors or on/off-ramps
DEXs and DeFi protocols
Builders who want to combine ecosystem pieces, not build new ones.
🚫 Who This Track Is Not For
Teams building net-new applications or wallets without existing traction
→ Better fit for Instawards
Teams building net new protocols not focused on integrations → Better fit for the Open Track
Developers creating tools or libraries intended for other devs → Check out the RFP Track
Track Requirements
You must integrate with at least one building block from the official SCF Integration List
Explain clearly:
What you’re integrating
How it improves your product and why it’s important to your success
Your existing user traction and how the Stellar integration would create value in the Stellar ecosystem
Most of your budget should go towards your integration costs.
Budget Recommendations
Small
one simple integration (wallet, SDP,, MGI)
$25K–$50K
Medium
moderate scope: one larger integration (DeFi protocol) or two small ones
$50K–$100K
Large
complex integrations: Wallet + DeFi protocol + on-ramp, anchor + DEX, or cross-chain bridge deployment.
$100K–$150K
Feel free to use the above table as a guide for creating your budget. Your budget items should mainly be related to your integration costs, but some costs for “connective tissue” are permitted.
Use the Budget Guidelines to format your ask
Split into 3 tranches using SCF’s milestone model
Do not include audit or marketing costs
Process & Timeline
Submit the SCF Interest form and indicate your interest in the Integration Track.
Important: If you were referred by a member of the SCF community, make sure to include their unique referral code on this form.
Eligible teams will be invited to submit to an upcoming Build round. Submit your Build form before the deadline and choose the Integration Track.
Submissions are reviewed by 2 reviewers from that quarter’s Category Delegate Panel.
If reviewers agree Yes or No, the project moves forward. If reviewers disagree, a third reviewer is added to break the tie.
Some teams may receive requested minor changes to their submission before funding.
After making any requested changes, awarded submissions receive their first tranche of funding.
