The approach

API-based architecture guarantees the agility and scalability of your business

Open Loyalty's business logic — earning rules, tiers, campaigns, member profiles, rewards — lives in the engine and is controlled entirely via REST API. No loyalty operation requires access to the admin UI; everything your integration needs is available programmatically.

The API is framework-agnostic and language-agnostic. Any backend capable of making HTTP requests can integrate with Open Loyalty.
Loyalty endpoints

Full documentation for every endpoint, maintained by developers

Every endpoint ships with request formats, response schemas, error codes, and worked examples. Postman collections are maintained alongside the API so your team can test any call before writing integration code.

Headless architecture

Deploy loyalty across any touchpoint without coupling to a fixed frontend

Open Loyalty's headless architecture separates loyalty logic from the presentation layer. Connect web, mobile, POS, or any other frontend independently — each reads and writes loyalty data via API while the engine handles consistency and business rules.

Use webhooks to push loyalty events to downstream systems in real time, or AWS S3 exports for scheduled batch transfers to your data warehouse or BI tools.
