Market-wide purchase data makes the entire Buds ecosystem smarter.

Reward preferences, redemption timing, and promotion response rates. Understand what drives your customers.

You see pseudonymous IDs — never customer names or emails. All data is anonymized and aggregated. GDPR/DSGVO compliant with joint-controller addendum and DPA available on request.
Orders where the Buds widget was actively engaged — meaning your customer opened it, viewed a reward, or redeemed Buds during checkout. This is the metric we use to measure the program's impact on your sales.
Three tiers: Basic at €500/month, Growth at €1,500/month, and Enterprise at €5,000/month. All tiers include the checkout widget, analytics dashboard, and full reward catalog. No hidden fees.
No. Product donations are completely optional and don't affect your tier or benefits. If you have surplus inventory, it's a smart way to turn dead stock into customer engagement — but it's your call.
