Spreedly Async work sample

Spreedly's main line of business is transacting with stored credit cards at other gateways and endpoints - which are all themselves some sort of remote service. As such, it is important that engineers at Spreedly understand the realities of dealing with remote services and distributed systems, in general. This work sample is designed to understand your comfort dealing with such systems.

$ curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
