Snag vs Alternatives

Overview

Snag is a white-label onchain loyalty platform. Unlike most alternatives, Snag provides fully branded, embeddable loyalty experiences that live on your domain — not on a third-party quest platform.

Key differentiators

White-label first

Snag is designed as infrastructure, not a destination. Your loyalty program runs on your domain, with your branding. Users never leave your ecosystem. Most alternatives (Galxe, Zealy, Layer3) host quests on their own platforms, splitting user attention.

Full-stack onchain infrastructure

Snag includes Stratus — a cloud-native onchain platform with serverless functions, relayers, subscriptions, and onchain tokens. This means you can build custom logic, gasless transactions, and automated workflows without external infrastructure.

API-first architecture

Everything in Snag is accessible via REST API and TypeScript SDK. You can programmatically create rules, manage users, issue rewards, and query data. This enables deep integration with existing systems.

Built-in marketplace

Snag includes a rewards shop with contract deployment, minting, auctions, and claim pages. Most alternatives require separate tools for token distribution.
