Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have API Documentation?
Yes. If you would like to see our API Documentation, please reach out to connect with a member of our strategy team.
Can we use our own designs and user experience?
Yes. You fully control the front-end experience. The API powers the backend logic—entries, prize draws, instant win results—while your team maintains creative freedom over the look, feel, and user journey.
What kind of promotions can we run with the API?
Our engine supports a wide range of formats: sweepstakes, instant win games, loyalty point redemptions, engagement streaks, achievement unlocks, and more. If it can be gamified, we can power it.
How do you handle data security and compliance?
Security and compliance are core to our infrastructure. We’re SOC 2-compliant, apply robust fraud prevention measures, and offer legal and promotional compliance support as part of our service—especially important for regulated sweepstakes and prize promotions.
What types of data can we collect through the API?
You can collect first-party and zero-party data, including registrations, gameplay behavior, preference signals, and optional survey responses. All data is passed securely and can be fed into your CRM or analytics tools.
Do you offer strategic support, or is this self-serve?
We’re full-service, if you want us to be. From campaign strategy and legal compliance to tech integration and ongoing support, our team partners with you at every stage. You’re never just handed the keys and left to figure it out alone.
Can we start small and scale later?
Absolutely. Many clients start with export-based workflows or single-format promotions, then grow into multi-format, always-on gamification. We’ll align with your goals and help you scale when the time is right.
How long does it take to launch a campaign using the API?
Timelines depend on the level of integration. Quick-launch campaigns using file exports can go live in 2-4 weeks. Full API integrations typically take 6-8 weeks, depending on your internal development resources and campaign complexity. Our full-service team is ready move as quickly to help bring your promotion to market.
