How is Kudos different from other cashback or offer apps?
Most apps either activate offers OR provide cashback. Kudos does both and integrates them into a complete credit card optimization system.
What makes Kudos different?
We're already at checkout when you need us most
Other apps require you to remember to check for offers before shopping. Kudos is right there at checkout, showing you active offers and recommending the best card automatically.
We know what you actually buy
Instead of showing you a list of 500 merchants you'll never shop at, Kudos matches activated offers to your real purchase history so you see offers that matter to you.
We factor offers into card recommendations in real-time
A 25% card-linked offer beats a 2% rewards rate every time. Kudos recalculates which card to use based on your active offers, not just baseline rewards rates.
We stack multiple reward sources
Kudos combines card-linked offers + Boost cashback + your card's rewards in a single calculation, showing you the total return on every purchase.
We track all your card benefits in one place
Beyond just offers, Kudos tracks airline credits, streaming credits, statement credits, and other benefits across all your cards, alerting you before they expire.
We provide AI insights on your overall wallet strategy
Kudos analyzes your spending patterns and tells you which cards you should add, which benefits you're not using, and where you're leaving money on the table.
