Constant Contact API Contest

Constant Contact API recently sponsored HackFit San Francisco, where 10 out of the 17 HackFit teams integrated with Constant Contact using our API platform. The team that won Best Use of the Constant Contact API, TotalTrainerApp, designed their product to integrate with Constant Contact as follows:

  • Contacts, Lists, Email Campaigns, Events, and Tracking API endpoints
  • the sign-up form SDK wrapper (create contact wrapper)

The kicker? They planned to use QWIQQ, a Constant Contact partner integration, to sell personal training services. Check out the overall results of the SF event.
