An automatic Loyalty Reward Distribution API has been developed by Komodo Platform to allow simple yet efficient decentralised reward distribution through the MNZ blockchain. This API crawls through the blockchain and creates a list with all MNZ public keys and their current holdings. The loyalty reward distribution API takes a predefined amount in Komodo Coin and distributes it accordingly (based on the percentage of tokens held) to public key holders. The amount distributed is calculated taking into account the year, the price of Komodo and the number of new users signed up in the given month. Monaize is often compared to N26, Revolut and other smaller players like Tide.co (UK) and Qonto (France). These players function more like a bank. Whereas Monaize functions as an open technology platform into which different financial service providers plug-in, in order to serve business users.
