One-click checkout startup Fast raised $102M, then shut down

Original: Стартап Fast підняв 102 мільйони доларів і закрився за три роки. Fast запустили 2019 року Домм Голланд і Елісон Барр Алл

Fast, the one-click checkout startup founded in 2019 by Domm Holland and Allison Barr Allen as a rival to Shopify's Shop Pay, has collapsed after three years despite raising a total of $102 million, including a $20 million Series B in 2021. Commenters are using the shutdown as a cautionary tale about startups burning through large amounts of venture capital without reaching sustainable growth.

Why now: The abrupt collapse of a well-funded startup is prompting debate about venture capital excesses and fragile business models.
