Help with Integrating Purchase Events from Website + POS into Braze
Hi Braze Community 👋 I’m currently learning how to set up Braze for our brand, and I’d love some guidance around handling purchase events. We collect purchase data from both: Website/App (via SDK), and In-store POS systems (via API). Questions: Is it best practice to log all of these transactions as a single purchase event in Braze, using the same event name and consistent properties (e.g. product name, price, source)? If we combine these sources, will that impact how revenue is calculated or how we segment users based on purchases (e.g. online vs. in-store)? What’s the recommended way to do this? Should we include something like a purchase_channel property to distinguish the source (e.g. POS vs Online), and are there any best practices for sending purchase data from a backend API to Braze? I want to make sure this setup will support accurate revenue attribution and flexible segmentation for future journeys and reporting. Really appreciate any advice or examples you can share 🙏 Best regards, HernandoBraze x Transifex / translation management

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance! Cheers LéaAmazon Incentives API — a referral program with Amazon gift cards
Hey there, a short use case story — inspired by one of our customers, I tested the Amazon Incentive API to showcase the referral program integration with Braze and Voucherify. It's a solid piece of software. I particularly liked three features: ➡️ `/CreateGiftCard` is idempotent — the same request ID yields the same certificate, so there's no need to store them in the CRM. ➡️ You can prompt the API to return a specific error code using a request parameter. This is useful for bulletproofing the integration, especially when combined with predefined test cases. ➡️ The documentation might not have Stripe-like magic, but it's up-to-date and comprehensive. The only issue I encountered initially was with the Amazon authorization algorithm, but it turns out Postman offers a solution out of the box. 🔗 Read more hereMovable Ink & Braze
Hi all, can anyone please share their experiences using Movable Ink? Have you found there are things you can't do directly in Braze that you can with Movable Ink? Or are there workarounds for things like calendar reminders, countdown timers, social sharing, live polling, etc that you've found solutions to without using an integration like Movable Ink?
