OttoRewards is a US-based fintech app built around one powerful idea: let people earn maximum credit card rewards without ever worrying about missing a payment.
Available on both iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play), OttoRewards connects users' bank accounts to their rewards credit cards and automatically pays off charges - so users keep earning points, miles, and cashback without carrying a balance.
THE PROBLEM
Millions of Americans have rewards credit cards but
lose their benefits because:
→ They forget to pay on time
→ They carry balances and pay interest - wiping out rewards
→ They manually track every transaction - exhausting and error-prone
The goal was to eliminate all three problems with one app.
THE SOLUTION
We built OttoRewards from the ground up - a full-stack mobile application for iOS and Android with:
🔐 Secure bank & credit card linking via MethodFi API (no sensitive data stored on OttoRewards servers)
⚙️ Auto-Debit System:- Every transaction is tracked in real time and paid within a 15 day cycle - automatically, from the user's linked checking account.
🔄 Flexible Payment Control:- Users can switch between Auto-Pay and Manual Pay at any time from the home screen - full control, zero stress.
💳 Multi-Card Subscription Plans:- Users choose a plan based on how many rewards cards they want to autopay. Upgrades and downgrades are handled in-app through native in-app purchases.
📊 FICO Credit Score Monitoring:- Integrated MethodFi's credit monitoring API - users track their credit score in real time with zero negative impact.
✅ Micro-Deposit Bank Verification:- For security, bank accounts are verified through two micro-deposits - a standard fintech security protocol built seamlessly into the onboarding flow.
❌ Payment Cancellation System:- Users can cancel pending payments, switch off auto-debit with one day remaining in the cycle, or go fully manual - all within the app.
THE TECH CHALLENGE
Building a fintech app means dealing with:
Bank-grade security requirements
Third-party API integrations (MethodFi for payments + credit monitoring)
Real-time transaction syncing
Subscription management through App Store & Play Store native in-app purchase systems
US banking regulations and compliance
Every feature was built with security, reliability, and user trust at the center.
THE RESULT
OttoRewards is now live on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store - serving US users who want to earn maximum rewards from their credit cards without the mental overhead of managing payments manually.
