These criteria determine who can receive a reward from the Glow Program
The Glow funding program rewards individual contributors only. Companies and institutions are not eligible.
Contributors must be over the age of 18.
Contributors must not be located in restricted regions (Syria, Iran, Cuba, North Korea, or the Crimea, Donetsk, or Luhansk regions of Ukraine).
Contributors must not be on any sanctions list or act on behalf of sanctioned individuals.
Contributors employed by Ripple or an affiliated organization (Interledger Foundation, XRPL Commons, XRP Ledger Foundation, etc.) may submit work developed independently of their employment, subject to disclosure. Affiliation is shown to Voters.
Contributors should not serve as Scouts or Judges in the Wave for which they are nominated.
Submissions can only apply to contributions made in the last six months.
The work must not have been previously funded through Glow or another program.
Only one reward per individual can be allocated per Wave, but contributors can be nominated multiple times.
Contributors must connect an XRPL wallet to receive funds.
Some shirt sizes may require KYC verification before disbursement.
Priority is given to projects that enhance the core infrastructure or protocol.
Eligible projects include any product, tool, documentation, or initiative that delivers meaningful, accessible value to the XRPL community. This includes fully open-source projects and freemium projects where a substantive, genuinely useful tier is available to the community at no cost. Ineligible: paywalled products, token-centric projects with no immediate utility, and anything that delivers minimal real value. Rewards are made to individual contributors, not to companies or institutions — though a contribution may originate from a project of any business model.
