Gift card fulfillment without the manual work
Most rewards programs start small: someone orders gift cards through a provider website, matches them to recipients in a spreadsheet, and sends them out one by one. That works until volume grows. Past a certain point the ordering backlog and the missing audit trail start limiting the program.
84EM builds custom fulfillment automation that replaces those steps: direct API integration with gift card providers, automatic card assignment and delivery, and complete transaction records. The same engineering covers loyalty points, store credit, and coupon distribution alongside the cards themselves.
Why a custom build instead of another platform subscription?
A platform subscription charges for every card it sends and limits the program to its feature set. A custom build is a one-time engineering cost: the code belongs to you at the end, with no per-card fees and nothing to migrate off later.
A platform’s pricing scales with the program: the more cards you send, the more you pay. The feature set is fixed too, so approval workflows, custom reporting, or a second provider all depend on the vendor’s roadmap.
A custom build puts the cost up front instead. 84EM writes the automation and hands over the code when the work is done; after that there’s no platform bill. If the program needs something new later, any developer can build it.
What does 84EM build for rewards programs?
Automated gift card ordering and delivery, loyalty and rewards programs, store credit and refund conversion, coupon and promotion distribution, and budget tracking with audit trails. All of it is built into the site you already run, and every transaction is logged for finance and compliance.
Automated gift card ordering and delivery
Full order lifecycle handled automatically: order creation, card assignment, fulfillment confirmation, and delivery by email or direct download. Multiple providers handled through one integration.
Loyalty and rewards programs
Custom points and rewards systems that award more than purchases: consultations, assessments, renewals, or whatever behavior the program is built to drive.
Store credit and refund conversion
Credit management systems that turn refund requests into retained revenue, with balances, expiration rules, and reporting built in.
Coupon and promotion distribution
Personalized coupon generation and distribution, with redemption tracking across locations and same-day campaign turnaround.
Budget tracking and audit trails
Every transaction logged with full context: who ordered, who received, what it cost, and when it was delivered. Reporting that holds up when finance or compliance asks.
