Bakkt’s Loyalty Business offered a full spectrum of supplier content through configurable, white-label e-commerce storefronts that end users could acquire via redemption of loyalty points. The Company’s redemption catalog spanned a variety of rewards categories including travel, gift cards and merchandise, including a unique Apple product and services storefront. The travel solution offered a retail e-commerce booking platform with direct supplier integrations, as well as a U.S.-based call center for live-agent booking and servicing. Bakkt’s platform provided a unified shopping experience that was built to seamlessly extend its customers’ loyalty strategies and user experience for their loyalty programs. The platform’s functionality included a mobile-optimized user interface, numerous configurations to support diverse program needs, promotional campaign services, comprehensive fraud protection capabilities and the ability to split payments across both loyalty points and credit cards. On July 23, 2025, Bakkt agreed to sell the Loyalty Business, and closed the sale on October 1, 2025.
