ambassador

platform

where authentic posts earn real rewards.

Questions

Who?

Who

Mike, Andy, and the original MunchPak Gif dream team.

A gamified ambassador platform where brands post activities and creators earn points for real rewards.

When

Started as an idea in 2019, began building in 2023, and officially launched in 2025.

Headquarters in Phoenix, AZ with a remote‑first product team.

Where
Why

We saw too many platforms treating creators like transactions instead of partners, so we built a system that rewards genuine collaboration.

By combining an intuitive Brand Portal, a Creator Hub, and an Ambassador App where activities earn points that can be redeemed for rewards.

How

Our Story

2013

Snack Box Beginnings

Mike Beletz and Andy Hawel launch MunchPak, a subscription box filled with hard‑to‑find snacks from around the world, shipping out of Phoenix.

Instead of buying ads, they send boxes to YouTubers and Instagrammers and encourage real customers to post unboxings.

Word spreads fast, and what starts with a handful of boxes grows into millions shipped worldwide.

2019

The Idea Spark

While running MunchPak, Mike noticed the company was constantly receiving DMs from devoted fans requesting free samples to review or just wanting to get involved somehow in what they were doing. Most brands would dismiss these requests, but he saw an untapped business opportunity.

He sketches out a simple idea: brands set activities, fans earn points, points unlock rewards.

2022

Exit and New Chapter

Mike and Andy successfully exit from MunchPak and enjoy some downtime, but the ambassador platform concept stays top of mind.

2023

Dream Team Reunites

The original crew dives in and gets to work, turning those simple sketches into a fully functional platform.

2024

Quiet Beta

Version 1 goes live.
A few early brands jump in.
They love the game mechanics but ask for an easier way to discover and invite new creators.

2024 - 2025

Feedback-Fueled Upgrade

The team pauses onboarding new brands and digs into feedback. Big changes roll out:


  • • Creator Hub so brands can browse, filter, and invite creators.

  • • Brand Hub so creators can browse, discover, and apply to brand programs on the iOS or Android App.

  • • Cleaner, faster Brand Portal UI.

  • • Dozens of small tweaks and speed boosts.

2025
