Kudos Wrapped
Kudos Wrapped has arrived, marking our first annual end-of-year post that highlights our favorite credit cards, hacks to maximize your rewards, Kudos features, and most importantly, how much our users have earned using Kudos in 2023!
Buckle up, because it’s been an amazing ride and it’ll only get more exciting in 2024.
We’ve helped 150,000 users earn over $100 million in credit card rewards this year!
That is the equivalent of buying an Airbus A320, 28 commercial air turbines, or the Vincent Van Gogh painting, "Portrait de L’Artiste Sans Barbe”! It’s what we’re most proud of and we’re excited to see how much our members maximize in 2024.
Top 5 Kudos Features Our Members Love
Autofill your card details
Is your wallet in the other room? Streamline your purchase by having Kudos autofill your card numbers – we’ll even remember your CVV for you! Just select which card you’d like to use at checkout and Kudos will handle the rest.
- Just head to your wallet and select a card
- Click “add card details”
- Fill in the card information
Boom, you're done. Next time you’re at checkout, sit back and relax because we’ll do all the work for you.
Says Kudos member Graham E. in their Product Hunt review: “I can’t always remember which cards are best to use at which sites. Kudos solves this problem for me, and I don’t have to go searching for the card every time I checkout because it remembers the CVV code.”
Customize point values
- Just head to your wallet and select the card you’d like to customize
- Choose the points-to-dollar conversion
Personalized Security
Your security and privacy come first. Choose how often you’d like to receive a one-time password before making a purchase to unlock your credit cards to only be accessed by you. All you have to do is go to your Account Settings and pick what setting works best for you. In their review on the Chrome Store, Danny K. highlighted that “[Kudos] helps me ensure I am getting maximum return on my purchase via my CC points, helps me catch some great deals I'd otherwise miss, and has solid security measures so I feel confident using it day-to-day.”
