The 4 Best Kudos Features You've Never Heard of
In building Kudos, we identified a bunch of ways to simplify the online shopping experience to help you maximize credit card rewards and benefits. With the core functionality of our browser extension and mobile app, we recommend the best credit card to use at checkout to earn the most rewards, highlighting benefits you may not know you had with your card. We even match your credit card rewards at over 15,000 partners.
Here are four Kudos features that will elevate your earnings even more!
- Autofill your credit cards
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. Finished!
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.”
- Change the frequency of your security settings
Your security and privacy come first. Choose the frequency on 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 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.”
- Customize your card points value
Member Sai P. noticed a missing feature in Kudos and wrote this Chrome Store review:
<figure id="" class="w-richtext-figure-type-image w-richtext-align-fullwidth" style="max-width:1631px" data-rt-type="image" data-rt-align="fullwidth" data-rt-max-width="1631px"><div id=""><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/618a364b9817c1a1f466ca8b/66ce4ca4689ce1d1ff7fd15f 6567648d197453a99bbe3a71 Chrome%2520Store%2520review.png" alt="" width="auto" height="auto" loading="auto" id=""/></div></figure>
Thanks to Sai’s awesome suggestion, you can tailor how much you value your points and miles. Rewards are set to a default value of $0.01 each, but you can adjust this amount whenever you like. Simply click on the card you want to update, go to Points to Dollar Conversion, make your choice, and we'll apply this value at checkout.
- Just head to your wallet and select the card you’d like to customize
- Choose the points to dollar conversion

- You snooze (and don’t lose)
You can fully customize your Kudos experience, choosing when you want Kudos to show up on specific sites (don’t worry - we don’t take it personally).
<figure id="" class="w-richtext-figure-type-image w-richtext-align-fullwidth" style="max-width:600px" data-rt-type="image" data-rt-align="fullwidth" data-rt-max-width="600px"><a href="https://www.joinkudos.com/my-wallet?utm medium=social&utm source=blog&utm campaign=the+4+best+kudos+features+you've+never+heard+of" target=" blank" id="" data-index="11"><div id=""><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/618a364b9817c1a1f466ca8b/66ce4ca4689ce1d1ff7fd153 656764d414181ab5a402eb4c Snooze.gif" alt="" width="auto" height="auto" loading="auto" id=""/></div></a></figure>
You can snooze Kudos:
- Until checkout
- Until you shop here again
- Hide Kudos on the website
Accidentally butterfinger the snooze button on your favorite site? You can change these settings at any time!
