About Giftbit MCP Server
Connect your Giftbit account to any AI agent to automate the delivery and tracking of digital rewards through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Giftbit is a powerful rewards platform that lets you send digital gift cards to customers, employees, or research participants. This MCP server enables you to order new rewards, retrieve available brands, and track gift redemption statuses directly through natural conversation.
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Giftbit tools. Connect 12 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
Key Features
- Reward Campaigns — Programmatically create new campaigns to send digital rewards via Giftbit's customizable email delivery system.
- Direct & Embedded Links — Generate raw reward URLs (direct links) or embeddable links to distribute rewards through your own app or SMS.
- Brand Discovery — List all available reward brands, filter by region, and check allowed price ranges and metadata.
- Redemption Tracking — Retrieve detailed status updates for individual gifts to see if recipients have opened or claimed their rewards.
- Campaign Oversight — List past campaigns and fetch their completion and delivery statuses.
