// => https://gif.qq/x9R7MDirect supplier connections, webhook-first events, and a sandbox you can hit in 30 seconds. No middleman markup. No quarterly procurement cycle.
Single integration. GIFQ handles supplier connections, FX, country routing, and inventory. Your team ships features instead of chasing supplier contracts.
Subscribe to delivery, redemption, and refund events. Build the UX you want — claim flows, dashboards, retries — on top of clean event streams.
Pay in USDT, USDC, or BTC alongside fiat. Direct on-chain settlement. The only multi-supplier API with crypto baked in, not bolted on.
The patterns product teams ship most often on top of GIFQ. Each one runs on the same REST API and webhook event types — integrate once, reuse everywhere.
Embed a points-to-rewards layer in your loyalty product. Members redeem against 5,000+ brands; you keep the wallet logic.
Pay sellers their share in branded gift cards or fiat. One API call per payout, webhook on delivery.
Convert ETH, BTC, USDC, or USDT into spendable gift cards in one round-trip. The exit ramp Web3 wallets actually use.
Pay panelists the moment they finish a study. UserInterviews / Prolific–style integrations stand up in hours, not weeks.
Issue cashback and rebates as branded gift cards instead of bank transfers. Faster delivery, higher activation, lower cost-per-payout.
White-label our recognition feed inside your people-ops product. Birthdays, anniversaries, and stipends — all wired up via REST.
A clean REST API, signed webhooks, and SDKs in four languages. No procurement cycles, no supplier negotiations, no inventory headaches.
Sign up, hit the sandbox immediately. Production keys are scoped per environment with rotate-on-demand and IP allowlisting.
POST to /v1/rewards or /v1/payouts. Get back a status, an id, and a claim URL in under 30 seconds. Idempotency keys included.
Subscribe to delivery, redemption, refund, and refund.failed events. Retries are exponential, signed with HMAC, and replayable from the dashboard.
Flip the env flag from sandbox to production. Same payload, same response shape. Talk to a senior engineer when you need volume contracts.
Drop GIFQ into your existing observability, deploy, and event tooling. No proprietary SDKs required — just clean REST, signed webhooks, and an OpenAPI spec.
“Sandbox was running in 30 minutes. Production live by Friday. The webhook-first design meant we shipped without polling — clean, predictable, exactly what an engineering team wants from a payouts API.”
Tango Card, Tremendous, and Giftbit all rebrand a single upstream supplier. GIFQ aggregates across suppliers, routes per country, and settles in fiat or crypto — with no platform markup.
Per-environment keys, scope-restricted by endpoint, rotate-on-demand. Full audit log of every key creation, use, and revocation.
Recipient PII handled per regional regulations. EU data residency on request. DPA available. Sub-processors listed publicly.
Currently mid-audit (Q3 2026 target). NDA-able evidence and SOC 2 Type I report available on request from security@gifq.com.
Lock production keys to specific IP ranges. Per-key quotas surfaced in headers. HMAC-signed webhooks with replay protection.
Production keys default to 1,000 requests per minute and 60,000 per day, with burst headroom for batch sends. Higher limits on request. Every response carries X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset headers. Sandbox runs at 100/min so you can stress-test retry logic without touching prod quotas.
Yes. Free for the lifetime of your account, no credit card required. Same endpoints, same payload shape, same response schema as production — just isolated brand inventory and dummy claim URLs. Flip a single environment variable to switch contexts.
Failed deliveries surface as a reward.failed webhook with the failure reason and a one-call retry path. POST /v1/refunds regenerates the claim URL or refunds the originating wallet. Idempotency keys make retries safe. Unclaimed rewards auto-expire to your configured window and refund automatically.
Node.js, Python, Ruby, and Go — all generated from the same OpenAPI spec and shipped in lock-step with every API release. Java and PHP SDKs are on the Q3 2026 roadmap. For anything else, the OpenAPI spec generates a clean client in your language of choice.
Public at https://docs.gifq.com/openapi.yaml and rendered as interactive docs at https://docs.gifq.com. Postman collection and Bruno collection both auto-generated and downloadable from the docs site.
Tremendous, Tango Card, Giftbit, and Runa all rebrand the same upstream supplier — they don’t aggregate. That means a single point of failure on inventory, no supplier-level routing, and a margin layered on top of every reward. GIFQ runs direct connections to multiple suppliers, routes per country, settles in fiat or crypto, and charges no platform markup. The delta is largest on cross-border payouts and high-volume sends.
Yes. GIFQ settles rewards and payouts in USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, and 40+ other tokens directly on-chain — no off-ramp partner, no double FX dip. For platforms where the recipient or the buyer holds crypto, this is the only API that doesn’t force a fiat conversion round-trip. It’s why Web3 wallets, exchanges, and crypto-native marketplaces use GIFQ as their gift card layer.
reward.delivered, reward.redeemed, reward.refunded, reward.failed, reward.expired, payout.delivered, payout.refunded, swap.completed, refund.failed, and account.* lifecycle events. All HMAC-signed. All retried with exponential backoff. All replayable from the dashboard or via POST /v1/webhooks/replays/{event_id}.
Free sandbox in 30 seconds. Production-ready in days. Direct supplier rates, native crypto rails, and webhooks for everything.
