Acknowledged as the premier awards program for the software and information industries for over 35 years, the SIIA CODiE Awards are produced by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), the principal trade association for the software, education, media and digital content industries. 2Checkout’s Avangate Monetization Platform was honored as one of 153 finalists across the 43 business technology categories, including two categories in response to COVID-19.
“The 2021 CODiE Award finalists continued to innovate, pivot and grow to develop truly remarkable products throughout an historically challenging year. These finalists maintain the vital legacy of the CODIEs in spotlighting the best and most impactful apps, services and products serving the business tech market. Congratulations to this year's finalists on this well-deserved recognition,” said Jeff Joseph, SIIA President.
2Checkout competed in the 2021 CODiE competition with its Avangate Monetization Platform, earning judges’ praises around the breath and depth of product features and functionalities specific to each category, as well as localization options, integration capabilities and solution flexibility that bring tremendous value to merchants selling product and services at a global level.
“We are thrilled to be once again a finalist in the SIIA CODiE awards,” said Oana Trif, Director of Product, Global eCommerce & Digital Business at Verifone. “Digital commerce has accelerated its growth due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are here to support our merchants to navigate these trying times with integrated solutions that allow them to adapt swiftly to market needs, improve customer experience and optimize internal operations at the same time.”
The SIIA CODiE Awards are the industry's only peer-recognized awards program. Business technology leaders including senior executives, analysts, media, consultants and investors evaluate assigned products during the first-round review. Their scores determine the SIIA CODiE Award finalists which accounts for 80% of the overall score. SIIA members then vote on the finalist products and the scores from both rounds are tabulated to select the winners. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Business Technology category winners will be announced during an online winner announcement celebration June 22, 2021.
