PicPay's public backend technical hiring challenge, a specification for building a simplified payments platform with user and merchant wallets, transfers, and unique CPF/email registration rules. It is not a working product but a challenge brief that candidates implement in any framework or language.

Use cases

• practice building a payments transfer API
• prepare for a backend technical interview
• find a take-home coding challenge to sharpen backend skills
• build a simplified wallet system with users and merchants
• compare community solutions to the PicPay backend challenge
• learn how to structure a small REST API with business rules

When to choose

• you want a realistic, well-scoped backend exercise for practice or portfolio
• you are preparing to interview with PicPay or a similar fintech
• you want a reference spec for teaching REST API design and transactional business rules

When to avoid

• you need production-ready payment processing software
• you expect runnable code rather than a challenge specification
• you need a maintained library with a license and releases for integration
