💡 Who Is It For?

This is made for:

  • Reward-based app creators
  • Game and quiz platforms
  • Task completion platforms (survey, watch & earn, etc.)
  • Developers needing INR-based point conversions
  • Anyone building gamification around gift cards

🚀 Why We Built This

This API is part of our platform at FreeGiftZone.com, where users earn points by watching ads, completing surveys, playing games, and redeeming them for gift cards. We needed a way to convert these points into ₹INR in real-time for the app and web interface.

So we built this API and made it public — for anyone to use without auth or payment.

🙌 Let’s Collaborate

If you're building something similar or want to use this API in your own platform, feel free to integrate it. You can even fork the repo or request a feature.

Leave your thoughts, feedback, or use-cases in the comments — we'd love to see what you’re building with it.
