Rakuten Button Canada: Get Cash Back for Shopping by Rakuten

by Firefox user 13872386, 6 years agoThe WORST addon I have ever used. Either it's running a miner in the background, or the programmers simply suck at their jobs, whenever I have this specific addon enabled, my Firefox CPU usage jumps to 80+%. No other addon does this. The instant I disable this addon, the usage drops back to the usual 0-5% idle.
If you use eBates, make sure you keep this addon disabled when you aren't using it. I have notified customer support but they didn't care at all.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Broffrey, 3 years agoAvoid this kind of useless shop-savings extensions that in facts can spy what you are looking on the internet, it's just collecting informations on you to profile you and similar customers to finally target ads/products/services. That's desguished spyware in counterpart to provide you a pretended nice service for free.
And just about the service provided: this kind of extensions (lots of similar exist like this one) can modify the webpages on-the-fly and also can censure some parts or search results to guide you to buy to a specific shop... instead of a concurrent. And guess who is paying the extension editor to do that? Sellers?
Just look at what this extension is requiring at the Permissions part...
Mind again before adding browser extensions! - Rated 5 out of 5by AndyL964, 4 years agoSaved me more money than Honey ever did 👌
Conflicts with adblock, but Rakuten.ca is all that's needed; no need to disable for other sites or to turn off Firefox privacy tracking. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16218659, 4 years agoAs of September 2020 this is broken. It keeps asking me to log on but if I click to log-on it brings me to the Rakuten website where I am logged on I go back to the shopping site where I get asked again to log-on by Rakuten and so on and so on.....
When it worked before it was great. But currently it's useless. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15632325, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15391636, 5 years agoA great addition to Rakuten.ca. It lets me know what sites offer cashback and i can activate cash back with one click. I didn't even think they could make getting cash back any easier than before, but now its even easier.

- Rated 1 out of 5by frustrated, 5 years agoNext to useless with UBlock Origin installed. It barks that I have to add the following to UBlock Origin
: "Ebates Cash Back Shopping"
https://www.rakuten.ca/static/cashback-shopping-whitelist?
Which I do. UBlock origin even has Rakuten's Cash Back Shopping filter lists installed yet it continues to complain when I go to say ebay. About to ditch this add on altogether. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15001414, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14602012, 6 years agoI really like how Ebates reminds when a site has active coupons or cash back. It's a money saver.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13176505, 7 years agoI have recently been told by Ebates.ca customer service that "Some stores, like Amazon.ca, have chosen not to participate in the Button program" and therefore this is essentially a useless spyware add-on
