Bonuz is a Web3 identity and engagement infrastructure built atop blockchains, aiming to give on-chain applications a Web2-like user experience. Its core consists of two protocols: the bonuz ID Protocol provides portable, permissioned on-chain identity, letting users control visibility of social handles, wallet addresses, and attestations; the Engagement Protocol (DNFT) enables brands to issue programmable dynamic NFTs for loyalty, ticketing, vouchers, and access scenarios. Users onboard via email or social login into a self-custodial smart account (ERC-4337) without seed phrases, with gas sponsored on core actions. Brands create campaigns through a dashboard, distribute via QR/NFC codes, and monitor redemptions. Bonuz integrates identity, engagement, and account abstraction into a layered protocol stack for everyday users and enterprises.

About Bonuz

Bonuz is a social smart wallet project focused on making blockchain usable for everyday life. Its core business includes a lifestyle wallet app, a brand dashboard, and an SDK, all built around dynamic NFTs (DNFTs) for loyalty programs, tickets, memberships, and vouchers. The wallet supports social login (email or social media), self-custody, and multi-chain assets (Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and major L2s).

The main narrative is the "Human Layer": bridging the gap between crypto infrastructure and ordinary users. Bonuz provides portable on-chain identity (bonuz ID) and programmable engagement assets, allowing brands to issue verifiable passes and rewards that users truly own. It also offers gas sponsorship on core actions, making the experience feel like a Web2 app.

Market pain points it addresses: most people find crypto wallets confusing and lack a unified identity; loyalty programs are fragmented and siloed; and brands struggle to engage users directly without intermediaries. Bonuz solves these by offering a simple onboarding flow (under 45 seconds), a single identity across apps, and open, composable engagement tools.

In the past six months (Feb-Aug 2026), Bonuz has been live on mainnet (Base) since October 2024, with ongoing development of its wallet, dashboard, and SDK. It supports 22 languages and has been adopted in use cases like restaurants, gyms, universities, and events. No major negative events were reported in this period, though the project remains early-stage with limited public adoption data.
