Linkable Networks (Collinson Group)

Linkable Networks, Inc. is a Boston-based card-linked-offers (CLO) and SKU-linked-offers platform that lets consumers attach digital offers directly to the credit and debit cards already in their wallet. When a linked card is used for a qualifying purchase on the Visa, MasterCard, American Express or PayPal rails, the Linkable platform receives the transaction, optionally confirms item-level detail through the on-premises Linkable SKU Matcher, and delivers the savings back to the cardholder as a statement credit, eGift, points or miles - with no POS integration, no additional hardware or software, no punch cards and no employee training. The company sells to brands and retailers (product/SKU-level promotions funded with trade and co-op dollars), to loyalty program operators (single-purchase, multi-visit and aggregate-spend reward mechanics layered on an existing program), and to publishers and app developers, who integrate the consumer-facing MyLinkables REST API to display offers, link them to a cardholder, register consumers, manage linked payment accounts and track redemption. Linkable Networks is associated with the Collinson Group, the privately-owned global travel, loyalty and insurance operator behind Priority Pass, and was surfaced through the Bain Capital Ventures portfolio.

Linkable Networks (Collinson Group) is listed with 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Fintech, Card-Linked Offers, Loyalty, and Payments.

Linkable Networks (Collinson Group)’s developer surface includes documentation, support, engineering blog, authentication, and 15 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

Machine-Readable Contract +18 pts — api_specs includes an OpenAPI document
MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
Agentic Access Contract +10 pts — agentic_access artifact present (x-agentic-access), graded by author
Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
Stable Error Semantics +8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0

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 the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/linkable-networks-collinson-group/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/linkable-networks-collinson-group to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.
