Koodo Mobile is a Canadian mobile flanker brand[1][2] started by Telus in 2008 and mostly oriented toward younger customers.[3] Koodo differs from its parent Telus by not requiring a fixed term contract.[4] Koodo currently provides postpaid, prepaid, and wireless home phone services. Being a subsidiary of Telus,[5] Koodo has been able to offer extensive coverage and a strong presence in mobile retailers. This allowed Koodo to gain a presence nationwide.
The brand name is a variation of the Ancient Greek word "κῦδος" (the ascendant to the English word "kudos"), meaning "praise, renown, glory" and more recently "acclaim for something well done".
