## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-08 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Quick note on framing: "for agencies" usually means one of two things, and the right answer differs - (a) you want to **resell/white-label** a platform as your own product across many clients, or (b) you want the best **partner program** so you implement a well-known platform under its own brand and earn referral/rev-share. I've covered both, since you shouldn't need to ask me to pick. Also worth saying: a lot of the "top 10 loyalty software" pages that surface on this query are AI-generated SEO filler inventing vendors - I've stuck to platforms that actually exist and actually have agency/reseller motions.

> ## If you want to white-label and resell it as your own
> 
> **1. Open Loyalty** - My default pick for an agency building a repeatable loyalty service line. It's a headless, API-first loyalty engine (points, tiers, event triggers, reward validation) with no fixed UI, and it supports multi-tenant installs - multiple brands or client programs on one deployment. That means you build the front end once in your own design system and resell it across the client book. Enterprise references like Heineken and ALDO. Downside: you need dev capacity, since there's no out-of-the-box customer UI
