Overview
Clanity Rewards is a loyalty program that lets local businesses give out a shared rewards token and lets customers earn that same token across many shops, instead of stacking up a different points balance everywhere they go. The token, called $CLAN, lives on Cardano. Customers are meant to earn it for purchases, referrals, and community activity, then spend or trade it through the planned Clanity Rewards apps1.
Clanity Inc. is registered in Seychelles and bootstrapped, with a public team and named advisors. The build is supported by MLabs, a Haskell and blockchain consultancy. Today most of the experience is forward-looking. The token and an early engagement app exist, but the wallet, the swap, the shop-facing payment tool, and the data marketplace are still in the roadmap12.
Key Features
- One shared rewards token across many shops. $CLAN is designed to work like a single points balance any participating business can give out and any customer can keep using, rather than a wallet full of unrelated loyalty cards2.
- Fixed supply, no surprise printing. $CLAN is a Cardano native asset capped at one billion units, with allocations split across team and advisors, development and marketing, partnerships, a foundation, and reserves for staking and liquidity. Insider portions unlock gradually after a six-month lock12.
- NFT holder bonus tier. Clanity Rewards sold a limited run of NFT cards and coins, one hundred of each. Holders who also stake between 15,000 and 25,000 $CLAN earn a 15 percent annual reward rate on those staked tokens, capped at two hundred wallets in total1.
- Planned payment tool for shops, called PayCLAN. The roadmap includes a payment gateway that would let customers spend $CLAN directly with participating businesses, alongside a swap that converts $CLAN to other Cardano tokens1.
- Community engagement layer, called CLANbuzz. A planned app meant to track and reward community contributions to local businesses, sitting alongside the rewards wallet rather than inside it1.
What to Expect
The Clanity Rewards site is currently a one-page presentation: a tagline, the planned products, a roadmap, the token allocation, the team, and a list of partners and press mentions. A newsletter signup sits near the top, and two NFT designs are listed for purchase through external order forms.
For everyday customers, there is not much to use yet. There is no app to log into, no shop to spend $CLAN at, and no exchange listing. Curious supporters can read the white paper, follow the blog, or drop into Discord, Telegram, or Reddit for updates.
For business owners, the offer is forward-looking. The pitch is a rewards program their customers could earn into, with the shop-facing payments-and-accounting tools planned for later phases. The team is named, the white paper is public, and a development partner is listed. 13.
