Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)
Who they are: A fintech, rewards, or cashback platform that surfaces thousands of merchant offers to users and lives or dies on those offers being accurate.
Core pain points:
Merchant offers change or expire without notice, leaving stale deals live.
A single wrong offer erodes user trust and triggers support tickets.
Manually checking thousands of offers is impossible.
What success looks like: Every offer continuously validated, with changes and expiries flagged before users hit them.
The Client (anonymized)
The client runs a consumer platform that aggregates merchant offers and cashback. Identifying details are withheld; figures are illustrative.
The Challenge
Trust is a fintech's core asset, and nothing erodes it faster than a user tapping an offer that no longer ...
... exists. The client surfaced thousands of merchant deals, but offers changed constantly — new terms, new rates, silent expiries. Their team couldn't manually verify at that scale, so stale offers slipped through and generated complaints.
The Solution
Actowiz built an offer-validation pipeline:
Daily offer capture across merchant and brand pages — terms, rate, validity, and conditions.
Change & expiry detection — flags offers whose terms changed or lapsed since last check.
Accuracy validation — compares live offer details against what the platform is showing users.
Alerts — a prioritized list of offers needing update each day.
Sample Output
Illustrative sample data — not real offers.
