Dart SDK
Learn how to install, configure, and use our Dart SDK.
The WinWinKit Dart SDK is a Dio-based wrapper around the REST API for Flutter and Dart apps. It exposes a single WinWinKit entry point and a per-user scoped UserClient so calls automatically carry the correct appUserId.
Installation
Requirements
- Dart 2.15+ / Flutter 2.8+
- Dio 5.0.0+ (pub.dev)
Package
The SDK is published to pub.dev as winwinkit. Add it to your project:
Flutter
flutter pub add winwinkit Dart
dart pub add winwinkit You can now import 'package:winwinkit/api.dart' (or package:winwinkit/winwinkit.dart for the umbrella export) from any source file.
Configuration
Instantiate WinWinKit once with your API key. Use an API Key from the WinWinKit dashboard (Settings → Integrations → API Keys).
import 'package:winwinkit/api.dart';
final sdk = WinWinKit(apiKey: 'your-api-key'); Hold on to this instance — typically as an injected singleton or a top-level final — and reuse it across the app.
Pass your own Dio to share an HTTP client (interceptors, logging, retry,
test adapters) across SDKs:
Identify the user
The SDK exposes a per-user scoped client. Get one with sdk.user(appUserId) and call methods on it.
final userClient = sdk.user('your-app-user-id'); Use a UUID-like value for the app user id — never an email, phone number, username, or any other personally identifying information. The id ends up in URLs, logs, and analytics, so treat it as a public identifier.
If your app has no sign-in flow, generate a random UUID on first launch and
persist it with flutter_secure_storage (preferred) or shared_preferences
as a simpler fallback.
When the user logs out, drop the UserClient reference and obtain a new one for the next user.
Create a user
Register the user in WinWinKit with createOrUpdate(...) before calling claimCode or any other user-related action.
final user = await userClient.createOrUpdate(); All arguments are optional. To set writable fields at creation time, see User properties.
Claim a code
Call claimCode(code) when a user enters a code in your app — typically from a “Got a referral code?” screen, a referral link landing flow, or a deep link handler.
Pass the code exactly as the user entered it — WinWinKit validates it and throws if it’s unknown, expired, ineligible, or already claimed. On success the response includes the updated User and any rewards granted at claim time.
try {
final result = await userClient.claimCode('XYZ123');
final user = result.user;
final rewardsGranted = result.rewardsGranted;
// Apply granted rewards in your app.
} on DioException catch (e) {
// Handle DioException — see Error handling below.
} Grant user rewards
The User object is the source of truth for what the user is entitled to in WinWinKit — claimed codes, active rewards, and stats. Fetch it whenever you want a fresh snapshot to unlock the matching perks in your app.
final user = await userClient.get();
// Inspect user.rewards.active and grant features accordingly. What you do with each reward depends on its type:
- Basic — flip a feature flag or unlock content in your app.
- Credit — apply the balance; call
withdrawCreditswhen the user spends it. - App Store Offer Code / Google Play Promo Code — present the code to the user or trigger the platform redemption flow.
- RevenueCat Entitlement — read the entitlement state from RevenueCat and unlock the corresponding feature.
- RevenueCat Offering — display the matching paywall offering.
The SDK is stateless — it doesn’t cache the user. Store the result yourself (e.g. in a ValueNotifier, Riverpod provider, or any store) so your UI can react when it changes.
User object
The User object exposes properties you can update from the SDK and properties WinWinKit manages for you.
Updatable
Update writable fields with createOrUpdate(...). All arguments are optional — pass only what you want to change.
final user = await userClient.createOrUpdate(
isPremium: true,
isTrial: false,
firstSeenAt: DateTime.now(),
metadata: {'plan': 'annual', 'platform': 'flutter'},
); Is Premium
Marks the user as a paying customer. Drives conversion tracking, affiliate commissions, and reward activation.
Is updated automatically when revenue tracking is configured — directly from App Store, or Google Play, and from RevenueCat, Stripe. Configure them in Settings → Integrations.
Is Trial
Marks the user as currently on a free trial. Conversions are not counted while a user is in trial.
Is updated automatically when revenue tracking is configured — directly from App Store, or Google Play, and from RevenueCat, Stripe. Configure them in Settings → Integrations.
First Seen At
The “first seen at” date controls claim code eligibility (default window: 7 days). If you don’t set it, WinWinKit uses the user’s creation date.
Metadata
Attach arbitrary key-value pairs to a user.
Provided by WinWinKit
These properties are managed by WinWinKit. Read them from the User returned by userClient.get() or userClient.createOrUpdate(...).
Referral Code
The user’s own referral code, generated when they are created in WinWinKit.
"referral_code": "ABC123" Referral Code Link
A hosted Code Link URL to the user’s referral code.
"referral_code_link": "https://example.wwk.link/ABC123" Claim Code Eligibility
Whether the user can claim a code right now, and until when.
{
"eligible": true,
"eligible_until": "2026-05-05T12:00:00Z"
} See Claim Code Eligibility for the rules.
Referred By
The code that referred this user, if any. type is one of affiliate, promo, or referral.
{
"code": "XYZ123",
"type": "referral"
} Stats
Counters for users who claimed this user’s referral code: total claims, conversions to premium, and subsequent churns.
{
"claims": 12,
"conversions": 5,
"churns": 1
} Rewards
The user’s active and expired rewards, grouped by reward type.
{
"active": {
"basic": [...],
"credit": [...],
"offer_code": [...],
"googleplay_promo_code": [...],
"revenuecat_entitlement": [...],
"revenuecat_offering": [...]
},
"expired": {
"basic": [...],
"credit": [...],
"offer_code": [...],
"googleplay_promo_code": [...],
"revenuecat_entitlement": [...],
"revenuecat_offering": [...]
}
} Referral Program
The referral program the user is part of, if any.
Methods
Withdraw credits
Spend down a credit reward balance. The amount is debited from the user’s available credit for the given key. operationId is optional and lets you make the call idempotent — passing the same id twice debits only once.
final result = await userClient.withdrawCredits(
key: 'extra-levels',
amount: 5,
operationId: 'checkout-7d3a',
); Register App Store transaction
Register an App Store transaction with WinWinKit. Only needed when using direct App Store revenue tracking (without RevenueCat integration) — call this after a purchase completes so WinWinKit can attribute the conversion without delays.
await userClient.registerAppStoreTransaction(
originalTransactionId: '1000000123456789',
); Register Google Play transaction
Register a Google Play purchase with WinWinKit. Only needed when using direct Google Play revenue tracking (without RevenueCat integration) — call this after a purchase completes so WinWinKit can attribute the conversion without delays.
await userClient.registerGooglePlayTransaction(
purchaseToken: 'abc...token',
); Refresh
To refresh the user’s state, call get() again.
final user = await userClient.get(); Error handling
The SDK delegates to Dio for transport, so HTTP errors and network failures throw DioException. Catch it and inspect response.statusCode and response.data to branch on API errors versus connectivity problems.
try {
final result = await userClient.claimCode('XYZ123');
// Handle success.
} on DioException catch (e) {
if (e.response != null) {
// Server responded with a non-2xx — e.response.statusCode and
// e.response.data hold the parsed ErrorsResponse body.
} else {
// Network I/O, timeout, cancellation, or other transport failure.
}
} The parsed body for non-2xx responses follows the standard ErrorsResponse shape — a list of ErrorObject entries.
See Errors for the full list of error codes the API can return.
