Our contribution to Gift & Go

What We Did

We were approached by Initial Rewards, a 15-year-old loyalty business that specialises in end-to-end rewards fulfilment, to rebuild their failing platform.  Through a Product Discovery journey, we helped our client to reimagine their business model and identify an opportunity for a new rewards solution that optimises online retailers to reduce the risks and liabilities inherent with managing fulfilment.

As a result of this journey, Gift&Go was born and became the first platform globally to successfully use Amazon’s public APIs to create dynamic product catalogues.

In building the Gift&Go platform, we delivered the following key features:

  • Custom store builder.
  • Theme builder to create customisable gift sites.
  • Campaign builder to create your own campaigns.
  • Integrations with third party provider APIs, including 13 Amazon Business global catalogues and Best Buy.
  • A robust API layer enabling 3rd parties to integrate with the platform to include a global gaming company deploying on over half a million outlets.

We helped Initial Rewards to transform from a non-scalable rewards agency, managing high volumes of product and the associated cost risks, into a fully scalable robust platform seeing a five-fold+ growth in revenues  over 4 years.

We continue to serve as a Tech Partner to G&G, providing all tech leadership as well as hands-on development & deployment.
