Catalog API Features

A Single Global Rewards API Built for Scale, Security, and Simplicity

Catalog API is a flexible foundation for businesses that need to send gift cards, prepaid cards, virtual rewards, and merchandise globally, at scale. It's built for both program managers and developers, with enterprise-grade security, an admin experience that's easy to learn, and an API that's easy to integrate.

Whether you're powering employee recognition, customer loyalty, sales incentives, research incentives, or promotional campaigns, Catalog API gives you the tools to deliver the right reward, anywhere in the world.

Reward-Agnostic by Design

One API. Endless Reward Possibilities.

Catalog API is truly rewards agnostic, allowing you to deliver the incentives your audience prefers, without limitations or vendor lock-in.

Supported reward types include:

  • Digital & Physical Gift Cards
  • Digital & Physical Prepaid Cards
  • Versatile Merchandise
  • Travel & Experiences
  • Company-Supplied Options

With access to millions of reward options from 80+ global suppliers, you can mix, match, and customize catalogs by region, program, or audience, using a single API integration.

Your Products, in Your Catalog

Company-Supplied Rewards, Beside Ours

Branded merchandise, your own inventory, or experiences you want to offer can sit in your catalog next to items from our suppliers. Your recipients see one catalog, not a separate flow for company swag.

How company-supplied rewards work:

  • Your products alongside ours in your catalog
  • Spreadsheet upload or using supplier API
  • Included in both live and downloadable catalogs
  • You fulfill your own items

There are two ways to run it. Send us a spreadsheet and we load your products for you, then email you each fulfillment as it comes in, which suits a catalog that doesn't change often. Or integrate the supplier API and manage products and orders directly. Either way you fulfill your own items, and anything the catalog doesn't carry can be sourced for you. To get set up, or for the supplier API specification, email suppliers@catalogapi.com .

Developer-Friendly API Integration

Fast, Secure, and Scalable

Developers love Catalog API for its clean architecture, secure endpoints, and scalable design. From a pilot to millions of reward transactions a year, our API grows with you. Signed webhooks push order status changes to you as they happen, with a delivery log and a sandbox simulator, so you don't have to poll us to find out what shipped.

Flexible Billing & Financial Simplicity

Pay on Redemption. One Invoice. Global Programs Made Easy.

Managing finances across borders doesn't need to be complicated.

Catalog API offers:

  • Pay-on-redemption billing to optimize cash flow
  • No pre-purchased inventory: fund a balance, draw down as rewards redeem
  • Catalog currency set per program: local, USD, or your choice
  • Billed in your own currency, whatever your catalogs are priced in
  • Full visibility into orders and redemptions
  • Transparent pricing

Two currencies are in play and they work independently. A catalog carries its own currency, so a Canadian program can price in CAD while your invoice stays in the currency you operate in. Conversion is built into standard catalog pricing, so your finance team has nothing to calculate or reconcile. Custom catalogs can assess conversion at account funding instead if that suits your accounting better, and customers operating internationally can be billed in more than one currency where they're set up for it.

Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance

Trusted by Global Organizations

Security is embedded into every layer of Catalog API. Our platform meets the highest standards to protect your data, your brand, and your recipients.

Security and compliance standards include:

  • SOC 2 Type II certified
  • GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA compliant
  • Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework adherence
  • Secure data encryption and access controls
