## Key Integration Paths

Thanx supports multiple integration paths to fit your product and customers.

Our platform is designed to be flexible – whether you’re integrating at the POS, kiosk, in a custom app, or via a pay-at-table experience.

### POS Integrations

Integrate Thanx loyalty directly into your Point-of-Sale system for in-store transactions.

Using our **Loyalty API**, a POS can:

* Look up a guest’s loyalty account.
* Retrieve available rewards.
* Apply discounts.
* Record loyalty accrual in real time.

This creates a seamless cashier experience where rewards are integrated into checkout.

Refer to the [POS / Kiosk Integration Guide](/overview/guides/pos-kiosk) for details.

### Kiosk Integrations

Extend loyalty to self-service kiosks.

The kiosk software allows guests to:

* Identify themselves (e.g., by phone number or QR code).
* View and redeem rewards.
* Apply rewards before payment.

This ensures a frictionless loyalty experience even in self-service environments.

Kiosks follow the same integration path for POS, refer to the [POS / Kiosk Integration Guide](/overview/guides/pos-kiosk) for details.

### Consumer UX (Mobile & Web) Integrations

Build loyalty features into your **custom mobile or web app**.

You can:

* Display loyalty balances and rewards.
* Enroll users in programs.
* Handle redemptions and reward events in real-time.

Thanx provides OAuth tokens, sandbox environments, and webhooks for real-time updates.

This path allows you to deliver a fully branded loyalty experience while Thanx operates behind the scenes.

Refer to the [Consumer UX Integration Guide](/overview/guides/consumer-ux) for more information.

### Pay-at-Table Integrations

Enable guests to pay directly from their mobile device by scanning a QR code at their table.

Using our Pay-at-Table APIs, you can:

* Allow guests to sign up or sign in to their loyalty account.
* Display order details and apply available rewards.
* Complete payment and automatically accrue loyalty points.

This integration connects on-premise ordering and payment systems with the Thanx loyalty platform, creating a seamless, contactless dining experience.

Refer to the [Pay-at-Table Integration Guide](/overview/guides/pay-at-table) for more information

### Subscriber Ingestion

Sync newsletter signups, CRM contacts, or email marketing lists into Thanx loyalty marketing via the Partner API.

Using our **Partner API**, you can:

* Opt email addresses into a merchant’s loyalty marketing.
* Enrich subscriber profiles with names, birth dates, and zip codes.
* Perform bulk imports or real-time syncs as users sign up.

Thanx handles targeted outreach to encourage full loyalty program enrollment.

Refer to the [Subscriber Ingestion Guide](/overview/guides/subscriber-ingestion) for details.

## Integration Process & Certification

Here’s an overview of the typical process and how we’ll support you at each stage:

### 1. Discovery & Scoping

* The Partnerships team defines the integration **scope and requirements** with you.
* Partnerships team and Developer Support identify your goals, data needs, and technical constraints.
* Once aligned, you’ll receive a clear plan for development, timelines, and handoffs.

### 2. Development & Sandbox Testing

* Thanx provides **sandbox credentials** and access for testing.
* The Developer Support team walks you through relevant endpoints and examples.
* You test against sandbox accounts to validate flows (e.g., reward lookups, redemptions, accruals).
* Check-ins and Q\&A sessions are available throughout this phase.

### 3. Certification (Quality Check)

* After sandbox testing, Thanx conducts a **certification review** before go-live.
* You demo your integration via video call, walking through key use cases.
* You should also provide a link or test environment where we can independently test your experience.
* We verify authentication, redemption logic, error handling, and data consistency.
* You must submit a **product guide** (screenshots of each step plus a screen recording demonstrating how the integration works) covering all use cases submitted for certification, shared with the Thanx team via email.
* Once complete, Thanx provides **production API keys**.

### 4. Launch & Ongoing Support

* The Partnerships team coordinates the **launch** and any co-marketing opportunities.
* Dev Support remains available for post-launch help and optimization.
* Once certified, you can onboard additional merchants using the same integration without going over all the initial certification steps. We provide smoother checks to help you launch new customers.
