Benji Connect Overview

​

What is Benji Connect?

Benji Connect enables you to connect your members to reward loyalty partners, allowing them to earn and redeem rewards through your platform. There are two ways to integrate Benji Connect into your application:

• Benji Hosted Connect — Connect users through Benji Hosted Connect (Benji-managed page; no embedded JavaScript required)
• Benji Connect SDK — Embed the same Connect experience as a modal in your app

Both approaches accomplish the same goal—connecting your members to reward partners—but differ in implementation, customization, and user experience. Both use a connect token and support Connect modes (link, transfer, redeem) depending on how you create the token.

​

Benji Hosted Connect

Benji Hosted Connect is a fully hosted solution where you redirect users to a Benji-managed page that handles the entire Connect flow (internally using the same patterns as the Benji Connect SDK). You integrate primarily via URLs, Pilot configuration, and APIs—not by embedding JavaScript. No frontend code changes are required. Best suited for:

• Quick integrations without building your own Connect UI
• Server-side or campaign-driven links
• Multi-platform use of a single Benji Hosted Connect URL pattern
• Dedicated Benji Hosted Connect experiences and custom domains configured in Pilot

​

Benji Connect SDK

The Benji Connect SDK is a JavaScript/TypeScript library you load from npm or script tag. It opens the Connect experience in a modal over your page and delivers callbacks to your code. With this solution you have full control over when and how the connection flow is triggered. Best suited for:

• Native app integrations
• Web applications requiring seamless user experience
• Scenarios where you want the connection flow embedded in your UI
• Tight control over when the modal opens and how you handle events
