What is Buddo?

Buddo is a persistent points economy that lives across a growing ecosystem of apps and services. When you create a Buddo account, you get a single balance that works everywhere — games, tools, services, and content platforms that have integrated with Buddo.

Unlike loyalty points tied to a single store, Buddo points are not trapped. They move with you. Earn from a game tonight, spend in a different app tomorrow. The same balance, always available, wherever you go in the ecosystem.

Underneath the experience is a real token — so your points have actual value and aren't simply accounting entries that can be zeroed out on a whim. When you accumulate Buddo, you're accumulating something that exists on a public network. That's the foundation of the whole thing.

How do you earn Buddo?

You don't need to do anything special to get started. The ecosystem is designed to reward participation — just showing up consistently is enough to build a meaningful balance over time.

• 💓

  Heartbeat Rewards

  Buddo rewards consistent presence. Simply being an active account earns you a regular heartbeat bonus — the ecosystem's way of thanking you for showing up.

• 👥

  Referrals

  Bring a friend into the ecosystem and earn points when they become active. The more people you introduce to Buddo, the more you earn alongside them.

• 🎮

  Games and Competitions

  Play slots, strategy games, card games, and competitions hosted on Buddo-integrated platforms. Win real rewards, not just in-game currency that evaporates.

• 📺

  Watch Ads

  Businesses in the ecosystem pay to reach Buddo users. You can choose to watch short ads in exchange for immediate point rewards. Your attention, your terms.

• ₿

  Bitcoin Learning

  The Buddo ecosystem includes structured content that pays you to learn about Bitcoin, financial sovereignty, and how money actually works. Knowledge that earns.

• 🎁

  Launch Bonuses

  Early accounts receive generous signup bonuses. The earlier you join, the more generously the initial distribution is weighted in your favor. Supply favors the early.

How do businesses plug in?

Any business — from a solo developer shipping a side project to a company running multiple services — can connect to the Buddo ecosystem as a Buddo Business account. This gives them access to a package of tools designed to acquire users, retain them, and build a sustainable digital operation.

Businesses don't get users handed to them. They compete for attention by building products people actually want to use and by offering rewards through the shared economy. The ecosystem creates a healthy incentive: the better your product, the more Buddo users choose you.

Businesses can also sell ad space on their own surfaces — if your app has screen real estate and users, you can monetize it by running Buddo network ads. You become both a consumer of the ad platform and a participant in it.

For forward-looking teams, the API is also designed for autonomous operation — AI agents can authenticate, award points, query balances, and respond to webhook events without human intervention. The infrastructure is already agentic-ready.

Why the whole thing reinforces itself

Buddo isn't just an app or a service — it's a self-reinforcing economy with four parts that feed each other. Understanding the loop explains why joining early matters, and why the ecosystem grows more valuable with every new participant.

This is why early participation matters. An economy compounds. The accounts that get in at the beginning accumulate points during the launch period when supply allocation is most generous, and they build balances before the ecosystem reaches the scale where every point is harder to earn.

Technical overview

If you're integrating your application with Buddo, here's what the technical surface looks like. The API is designed to be simple for common operations and comprehensive for advanced use cases. All endpoints use standard OAuth 2.0 and return JSON.

OAuth Flow

Buddo uses the standard Authorization Code flow. Your application redirects users to the Buddo authorization endpoint, the user approves, and you receive an authorization code to exchange for an access token. From that point, the token identifies the user and their balance context.

# Step 1 — redirect user to authorization endpoint
GET https://auth.buddo.app/oauth/authorize
  ?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID
  &redirect_uri=https://yourapp.com/callback
  &response_type=code
  &scope=profile balance

# Step 2 — exchange code for token
POST https://auth.buddo.app/oauth/token
  client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID
  client_secret=YOUR_SECRET
  grant_type=authorization_code
  code={received_code}

Core API Endpoints

POST /api/v1/points/award
Authorization: Bearer <access_token>
Content-Type: application/json

Webhook Events

Subscribe to webhook events to react to Buddo activity in real time. Register your endpoint in the developer console. Events are sent as HTTP POST requests with JSON payloads and HMAC-SHA256 signatures for verification.

• user.connected A user has authorized your application via OAuth
• points.awarded Points were successfully awarded to a user by your app
• points.deducted A user spent points within your application
• ad.impression_verified A verified ad view was recorded; points issued to the user
• referral.converted A referred user became active, triggering referral rewards
• user.balance_updated A user's balance changed from any source within the ecosystem

# Verify the request is genuinely from Buddo
import hmac, hashlib

signature = request.headers.get('X-Buddo-Signature')
expected  = hmac.new(
    WEBHOOK_SECRET.encode(),
    request.body,
    hashlib.sha256
).hexdigest()

if not hmac.compare_digest(signature, f"sha256={expected}"):
    return 401  # Reject unauthenticated payloads
