‍What is Kudos Boost?

Updated today

Kudos Boost is our free rewards program that gives you cash back on top of your credit card rewards at over 15,000 participating stores, including Sephora, ebay, StubHub, Expedia, and more. We share 100% of our merchant commissions with you - no extra effort required.

How it works:

When you shop with Kudos on desktop or mobile, you'll automatically earn your card's regular rewards plus our full merchant commission. Just activate Kudos Boost before checkout.

Example: If your credit card gives you 3% back and we earn a 12% commission from the store, you'll get 15% total back on your purchase (3% from your card + 12% from us).

No rewards card? No problem - we'll still give you our full commission!

How we keep Kudos free:

We generate revenue through:

  1. Credit Card Partnerships: When you discover and apply for cards using our personalized tools (like Dream Wallet or Card Explorer), card issuers pay us a commission. We use this to support our mission while keeping Kudos free.

  2. Merchant Commissions: When you shop through Kudos, stores pay us a commission. We give 100% of it back to you through Boost.

Maximize your savings:

  • Watch for Flash Boost sales and Deal of the Day with elevated cash back rates

  • Stay updated on our blog for the latest offers

  • Make sure you have the latest version of the Kudos iOS app (4.7.4+) or browser extension (4.120+)
