Antavo & Shopify Integration: Loyalty Built Into the Buying Experience

June 23, 2026

Loyalty is one of the highest-impact levers a Shopify brand can pull for retention, but only when customers can actually engage with it, and only when the loyalty program can hold up to the complexity of a real business.

This year, Antavo’s Shopify integration has taken a significant step forward. With the two platforms’ combined power, loyalty is now built into the buying experience, across every market a brand operates in, with customer data flowing in both directions between Antavo and Shopify. Here’s what that looks like:

Turn existing customers into loyalty members

Thanks to the new Shopify integration, customers can join your loyalty program whenever they’re ready and get credit for purchases they’ve already made. New members see value from day one, and brands capture loyalty signups at the moment customers are most engaged.

For brands launching a new program, this is the difference between starting from zero and starting with a base of customers who already feel rewarded.

Loyalty as part of every purchase 

From now on, customers can now redeem points directly during Shopify checkout to reduce their subtotal. No coupon codes, no extra steps. Loyalty becomes part of the buying moment, not a separate process bolted on around it. When customers can see and spend their points at checkout, they buy more, and they come back sooner.

Loyalty that looks like your brand

Points, tiers, rewards, and challenges surface across your store through widgets that adopt your storefront’s styling automatically. More layout flexibility, more content control, and a loyalty experience that looks like it belongs in your store. The widgets your team configures are the widgets your customers see, without engineering work and without compromise on brand.

Loyalty data your whole stack can use

Customer loyalty data now flows in both directions between Antavo and Shopify. Tier status, points balances, and engagement signals are available where your team already works in Shopify, in the apps connected to it, in the workflows that drive your customer experience.

Loyalty stops being a siloed program and becomes part of the customer data your business runs on. For brands with sophisticated stacks, this is the change that lets loyalty actually inform what marketing, service, and product do next.

One program across every market

Selling in multiple currencies, or running multiple Shopify stores? Antavo handles it all from a single workspace. Different earn and burn rules per currency, separate configurations per store, new stores synced automatically.

A customer in London and a customer in Berlin both get a loyalty experience that feels local. You get a unified view of every customer across the business. For brands operating internationally on Shopify, this is one of the few places loyalty stops being a regional patchwork.

Built for brands that take loyalty seriously

Antavo powers loyalty on Shopify for brands like SKIMS, Represent, and LeMieux; brands where customer retention isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s a core growth driver.

Whether you’re launching your first program, replacing one that isn’t delivering, or scaling one that’s outgrowing its current platform, Antavo gives you the infrastructure to match where your brand is heading and the flexibility to grow beyond it.

Frequently asked questions about Antavo

What can brands build with Antavo?

Brands use Antavo to run the whole loyalty and incentives program on one platform: points, tiers, challenges, streaks, referrals, clubs, and rewards beyond discounts; promotions and incentives for members and non-members alike, from bonus points and promo codes to bundles and cart-level offers; and agentic AI built in. Everything runs online, in store, on mobile, and in wallet, and marketers launch it themselves.

Who uses Antavo?

Antavo works with mid-market and upper-mid-market brands across fashion, retail, beauty, travel, hospitality, restaurants, and sports in North America and Europe: multi-market, omnichannel brands with a strong identity and customers worth keeping, including Paul Smith, KFC, SKIMS, Rip Curl, Benefit Cosmetics, and Hyatt's Inclusive Collection.

How long has Antavo been around?

Antavo was founded in 2012 and has been building loyalty programs for more than a decade, with teams across Europe and North America serving brands worldwide.

Why do brands switch to Antavo?

Most loyalty programs get stuck: reduced to a discount engine, generic to customers, or too rigid to evolve. Antavo removes those compromises. Brands get a program that feels unmistakably their own, loyalty and incentives on one platform, and the depth to handle tiers, expirations, refunds, and many markets at scale. Their own marketers run it: a tier change in an afternoon, live when they press the button.

How does Antavo use AI?

Antavo's agentic AI is built in, not bolted on. Two named agents do the work: the AI Loyalty Expert, which turns your ideas into a build-ready program, and the AI Analyst, which turns your data into clear answers and reports. Both work inside Antavo or connect to Claude and ChatGPT, and every answer is grounded in your own program and data.

What does Antavo integrate with?

Antavo is API-first with real-time webhooks and deep pre-built integrations, from Shopify, Klaviyo, Braze, and Bloomreach to the CRMs, CDPs, ESPs, and POS systems you already use. Antavo plugs into the stack you already run rather than replacing it.
