What can the Rewards Sciences Make integration do for you?
The Rewards Sciences Make integration links your rewards program to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario: the automation itself, a chain of modules. Each module is one brick of that chain. Here, three of them watch Rewards Sciences for new events and two of them send data back to it.
Credit members for what they do in other tools. A purchase in your store, a form sent, a ticket closed: the trigger of that other app starts the scenario, and Track Activity by Email reports the action to Rewards Sciences using the customer's email address.
Tell your team about redemptions. Watch New Redemption picks up each reward a member claims, and the next module can post it wherever your team already works, so nobody has to open the dashboard to see who needs a gift shipped.
Welcome every new member. Watch New Sign Up starts the flow when someone joins, which is the right moment to add them to your mailing list or CRM. Watch New Conversion fits the same pattern for conversions.
Know the limits before you start. The official doc lists these modules without describing them, and it warns that its content is AI-generated and may contain mistakes, so check anything important with Rewards Sciences. The doc does not give their type, but their Watch names point to scheduled triggers, which means Make checks for news on a timer instead of being told right away. The Make pricing page explains what that timer costs you, and if you are still choosing a tool, read n8n vs Make.
How do you connect Rewards Sciences to Make?
- 01
Copy your API token
In the Rewards Sciences web app, open Developer Settings, then API Tokens, and copy the token shown on screen. You need an active Rewards Sciences account for this; the token is what lets Make act on your behalf.
- 02
Start the connection in Make
Add any Rewards Sciences module to your scenario and click Create a connection. A connection is your Rewards Sciences account linked to Make once, then reused by every module of the app. The Connection name field is optional.
- 03
Paste the token and save
Paste the token you copied, or follow the instructions Make shows on screen, then confirm. The connection now appears in the list, and the other four modules will offer it without asking again.
Build your first scenario with Rewards Sciences
GoalWhen a customer places an order in your online store, Make reports that purchase to Rewards Sciences with Track Activity by Email.
- 01
Create the scenario
On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the big +. That empty circle is where the first module, the one that starts everything, will sit.
- 02
Pick the starting app
Search for your store app and choose its trigger for new orders, then create its connection. Each order it finds becomes a bundle: one item passed from a module to the next one.
- 03
Add Track Activity by Email
Click the + on the right of the first module, search for Rewards Sciences and pick Track Activity by Email. Connect your account, then map the customer email coming from the order.
- 04
Test with Run once
Click Run once and place a test order. Make runs the scenario one time and shows the bundles each module received, so you can check the right email reached Rewards Sciences.
- 05
Schedule it and switch it on
Open the clock on the first module: a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default. Keep that or change it within your plan, then switch the scenario on and let it work.
Which Rewards Sciences events can start a scenario?
3 modules start a scenario when something happens in Rewards Sciences. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Rewards Sciences as soon as it happens.
Watch New Conversion
triggerIn the docs onlyThis trigger starts your scenario from the conversions recorded in Rewards Sciences, so a new conversion can feed a report, a CRM or a thank-you message without anyone copying it by hand. The doc lists it without a description, so its name is the only guide to what it returns.
Watch New Redemption
triggerIn the docs onlyRewards your members claim become the start of a scenario with this trigger, which is handy when a redemption means work for someone: a gift to ship, a code to send, a stock count to update. The official doc gives no field list for it.
Watch New Sign Up
triggerIn the docs onlyEvery person who joins your rewards program can open a scenario through this trigger, the natural moment to greet them, tag them in your CRM or add them to a mailing list. As with the other two triggers, the doc lists the module but does not describe it.
What can Make do in Rewards Sciences?
Rewards Sciences gives you 2 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.
Make an API Call
ActionIn the docs onlyWhen the four other modules do not cover what you need, this one lets you call any endpoint of the Rewards Sciences API from your scenario, with the connection you already set up.
Track Activity by Email
ActionIn the docs onlyGoing by its name, this action reports an activity to Rewards Sciences for a person identified by their email address, which is how events happening in your other tools can count in your program. It is the most useful brick for a first scenario.
