摘要： Methods and systems for managing loyalty programs using a decentralized blockchain are provided. Transactions between users and a merchant are monitored via an application programming interface (API) of a service provider. Based on the monitoring, it may be determined that at least one of the users has satisfied reward criteria for a loyalty program associated with the merchant. The loyalty program includes a plurality of tokens to be distributed to users who satisfy the reward criteria configured by the merchant via a merchant interface. At least one token from among the plurality of tokens may be selected for the user, based on at least one smart contract associated with the merchant. The smart contract is stored on the blockchain in association with a unique identifier for the merchant. A transaction is broadcasted to the decentralized blockchain for transferring the at least one token to a digital wallet of the user.
