LevelUp helps merchants own the shift to mobile by powering mobile-payment optimized loyalty programs, enabling their customers to order and pay for their purchase and accrue/redeem rewards with a single scan or tap. LevelUp (now owned by GrubHub) is currently active in over 14,000 merchant locations and used by 4 million users.

Process Automation Software

Previous to this project, LevelUp was running manual scripts to receive restaurant menu and merchant information from their providers. LevelUp was building a new back-end system to integrate with online ordering providers, but needed to stand up a Ruby on Rails app to handle the automation and scheduling of these jobs.

Back-End Integrations

Gnar was hired to build Ruby on Rails back-end integrations with LevelUp online ordering partners. The integrations involved importing restaurant menu data and enabling placement of food orders via LevelUp’s Order Ahead feature.
