Pikt App Setup: Add Your Cards at trypikt.com in About 30 Seconds
Published by Pikt. Published . Updated .
Pikt runs on the web at trypikt.com, with a Chrome extension for checkout. Sign up, add the cards you carry by name (about 30 seconds, no bank login needed), and run a Card Check. There's no Pikt app in the App Store or Google Play yet.
Why the answer varies
The likely winner depends on the cards a person carries, the merchant category, active bonus categories and offers, reward values, earnings caps, known fees, and issuer terms. Card acceptance can also remove an otherwise higher-earning option. A public guide is a general comparison until a user provides their own wallet.
Pikt personalizes each estimate to the cards you already carry, the purchase details, and any reward values you set. It learns from confirmed card choices over time, while verified rewards math remains the basis for the result and the explanation. Use Card Check for a recommendation based on the cards you carry.
Step 1: sign up at trypikt.com
Create a free Pikt account at www.trypikt.com.
Step 2: add your cards by name
Choose the cards you carry from the list. Pikt only stores which cards you chose, never numbers or passwords.
Step 3: run your first Card Check
Enter a store and an amount. Pikt shows which card in your wallet is likely to earn the most, with the estimated dollar difference and a short reason.
Step 4: add the Chrome extension
The extension shows the same estimate beside the payment form when you shop online in Chrome on desktop.
Optional: connect a bank
A read-only bank connection through Plaid or Quiltt lets Pikt show your past purchases in Transactions. It can't move money, and you can disconnect anytime. You don't need it to get recommendations.
