Ciloo

Ciloo is a Rotterdam-headquartered global platform for branded products and promotional merchandise. Enterprises run a branded Ciloo store — business cards, apparel, stationery, signage, corporate gifts and sales collateral — and every order placed in it is produced on demand by a vetted production partner near the recipient, which Ciloo positions as cutting cost, waste and shipping distance while keeping brand control central. The platform is used by manufacturing, medical-device, professional- services and franchise organisations, and integrates with digital asset management (Frontify, Bynder, Canto, Aprimo, Papirfly, Brandfolder, Marvia), procurement and ERP (SAP Ariba, S/4HANA, Proactis, Proqura, Exact), SSO, and WooCommerce. Ciloo documents two APIs on its own knowledge centre at api.cilooprint.com: a per-brand-store Cart API secured with OAuth 1.0a, and a bidirectional Printer API integration that pushes orders to production partners and receives production and shipping status callbacks in return.

Ciloo publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network: Cart API, Authentication API, and Customers API. Tagged areas include Company, Printing, Branded Merchandise, Promotional Products, and Print on Demand.

The Ciloo catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Ciloo’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, authentication, and 20 more developer resources.

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/ciloo: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
