Description

GitGig is a GitHub-integrated bounty platform that lets sponsors add USDC rewards to GitHub issues by commenting with a bounty amount. Its website describes a workflow where a bot creates a funding page, sponsors fund with USDC on Base, and contributors can receive payout when their pull request is merged.

This is relevant to the Gitcoin Funding Directory because it is a task-level funding mechanism for open-source work. It connects GitHub issues, pull requests, and onchain payment rails in a lightweight flow that can support bug fixes, documentation work, integrations, and other scoped contributions.
