Biscuit built a gamified rewards app on Dynamo
A rewards program for pet owners, powered by the Dynamo API. Quests, XP challenges, and real rewards, shipped without heavy development costs.
Incentivize any customer behavior. Add gamified features like missions, leaderboards, and progress tracking to your app or platform through a headless loyalty API, without building or maintaining the engine yourself.
Product teams know engagement drives retention. The leak usually shows up in one of three places.
Purchases, referrals, completed onboarding: the behaviors your growth model depends on have nothing pulling users toward them.
Users sign up, explore, and drift. Without progress, goals, or competition, there is no reason to come back tomorrow.
If rewards are just numbers on a screen, they stop motivating. Engagement mechanics without real payouts become decoration.
The solution
Dynamo is a headless loyalty engine. Define event types with your own JSON schema, set reactors that respond the moment an action happens. No fixed templates. No rigid earn rules.
Purchases, referrals, deposits, lessons finished, invoices paid. One endpoint, your payload schema, validated on ingestion. Report from client or server with the right access level.
Reactors listen for events and act in real time. Award points, unlock a reward, grant a badge, or call a webhook into your own systems. Rules change in the console, not in code.
Build audiences from profile attributes, event history, points balance, or purchase behavior. Audiences refresh on their own and can trigger reactors when users join or leave.
Goal-based mechanics and competition, delivered through the same API as everything else.
Reward goals, like extra purchases in a limited timeframe. Users see progress toward the goal.
Time-bound or evergreen competitions that rank members on points earned. Introduce competition to increase engagement.
Recognize milestones with achievement rewards, granted automatically through reactors.
Point-based or behavior-based tier hierarchies that unlock benefits as users climb.
Display points as XP, credits, or cash value. Or run point-free programs entirely.
Reward referrals with rules you define and tracking built in.
Rewards that pay out
Most gamification tools stop at points on a screen. Dynamo connects every mechanic to a rewards marketplace with fulfillment built in. Your users earn things they can actually spend

→ Digital gift cards, fulfilled and delivered for you
→ Vouchers and discount codes, validated in real time via API
→ Cashback: prepaid Visa cards, PayPal credit, and virtual card top-ups that work with Apple Pay and Google Pay
→ Cash withdrawals at the ATM, with a PIN sent by SMS
→ Merchandise with stock tracking built in
Dynamo is backend infrastructure, documented like it. A REST API with a TypeScript SDK, the Tiles SDK for React and React Native, webhooks, schema-validated events, three access levels, and separate staging and production environments. Send your engineers to the docs or straight into the sandbox before you ever talk to us.
Dynamo's API-first design puts you in control, offering limitless possibilities to integrate loyalty features directly into your product. Here's a small sample of what Dynamo can do:
Engineers integrate once. Your team runs it daily.
After integration, non-technical teams create and edit reactors, launch rewards, manage users, monitor activity, and test logic in the console. New rules and rewards don't need a sprint.
Render everything yourself through the API, or ship faster with pre-built components.

Drop branded loyalty components into your React or React Native app. Wallets, progress, rewards, leaderboards.

A ready-made, fully branded site. Standalone, embedded in your website, or wrapped in your mobile app.

Use the API and SDKs directly and present Dynamo data exactly how you want. Complete control.

The real cost of building in-house isn't the build. It's owning it forever.
Your team can build an engagement engine. Then they scale it, adapt it, and maintain it as requirements keep changing. Dynamo gives you the flexibility of a custom build without the permanent ownership. Live in weeks, not the 6 to 12 months an in-house build takes.
Go live in weeks, not months. Your engineers integrate Dynamo themselves using our API and docs, and you choose how much support to add.
Book a demo to map your use case and pricing. In parallel, your engineers verify the platform in the sandbox with the developer docs, before anything is signed.
Self-serve integration on your side: wire up event reporting and test loyalty logic in a dedicated staging environment, backed by documentation and email support.
Go live on production infrastructure that has processed 100M+ events. Want ongoing hands-on help? Add Dedicated Program Management to your plan.
Dynamo gives enterprises and scale-ups the automation tools to build, deploy, and scale loyalty programs using our API and SDK.

Dynamo is one of three ways to run White Label Loyalty, all on the same platform. Prefer a turnkey program we build and run with you, whether you sell direct or through others? That's Activate. Need a custom build for requirements that don't fit a standard product? That's Enterprise. Here's how they compare.
Our loyalty API, built by your team. For product teams with engineers who want to build loyalty into their own app.
We build and run it with you. For manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors, and consumer brands that want a turnkey program without the build effort.
Fully custom, built around your requirements. For complex or large-scale programs that need a bespoke build and a fully managed delivery.
Real products, real results. Dynamo runs on the same platform behind loyalty programs at global brands, banks, and consumer apps. Here's what teams say about working with us.
