One tap. Your best card, chosen in 50 ms.
Tapd works with the credit cards you already carry. Each time you pay, it picks the one that earns the most on that purchase, so every card's rewards actually get used.
Private beta planned for 2027.
Most people carry several rewards cards and have a couple of seconds at the register to choose one. Nobody runs the numbers, so the rewards go to whichever card is on top.
How it works
Add the cards you already have once. After that you just tap, and Tapd does the math.
Add your cards
The cards you already have, from the banks you already use. No new credit line.
Tap to pay
Pay at any contactless terminal. Nothing changes at the register.
Tapd picks the card
It weighs reward rates, bonus caps, foreign fees and offers, and pays with the card that earns the most.
See what you earned
Every purchase shows which card paid and why.
Try it
Pick a purchase. Tapd scores four sample cards and pays with the best one.
| Card | Earns here | You earn |
|---|
Sample cards with made-up terms. Points valued at 1.5¢ (Dining) and 1.25¢ (Travel).
The offers you'd have to remember
Every card runs its own rotating categories, credits and limited-time offers, each with a different deadline. Tap the ones you'd actually keep track of.
Sample offers on the same four made-up cards, for one quarter. Values assume typical household spending.
Built to be trusted with your wallet
Tapd sits between you and your money, so we hold ourselves to a few commitments from day one.
Tapd isn't a bank and doesn't issue you credit. You keep your existing cards, accounts and rewards programs.
We use purchase details only to pick the best card for you. We don't sell personal data or use it for advertising.

Anything else, email hello@tapdtechnologies.com. We usually reply within a business day.
Do I need to get new cards?
No. Tapd works with the credit cards you already have. There's no new credit line and nothing to apply for.
Is Tapd a bank?
No. Tapd Technologies is a software company. We don't issue cards, lend money or hold your funds. Your purchases are made with your own cards, under your card issuers' terms.
Do I still earn my cards' normal rewards?
Yes. That's the point. Tapd picks which of your cards pays, and that card earns its rewards the way it always would.
What happens to my data?
We collect only what we need to pick the best card for each purchase, and we never sell personal data. Our security page sets out our principles, and the app will come with its own privacy policy before the beta opens.
When can I use it?
A private beta is planned for 2027, with a wider launch after that. Join the waitlist to be considered for early access.
I work at a bank, card network or payments company.
We'd like to hear from you. Get in touch and the founders will reply directly.
Are you raising?
