Scam, please watch MegaLag's video on youtube.

If you have it installed, any affiliate link you click on, be it from your favorite blog, content creator, influencer etc. to buy a product you like, the commission that would otherwise go to that content creator, will be hijacked by Honey and it will go into the pocket of PayPal (the owners of this extension), instead of the creator who recommended you the product. This is done at the checkout when Honey scans for coupons, and regardless if it finds one for you or not, the hijacking still happens.

Honey also works with online stores to give you a lower value discounts than you would find for yourself after a brief search online. The store saves money because Honey provides people with low discount coupon codes, and not the higher discount ones they may easily find online, and Honey gets a cut.

Honey doesnt give you the best discount code available, in fact its part of their business model not to give you the best deal.

If you ever hear of an extension called "Pie" - its made by the same people as Honey, its just an adblocker + Honey combined - basically a middle man that takes a cut from both both parties while providing nothing of value (you can get an adblocker for free elsewhere).

In short, avoid this scam as it damages both content creators and you as a consumer. Better value coupon codes can be found manually with little effort.

Fraudsters. Shamefully greedy. Disgusting.

Scam!!!!

Scam!

scam, fraud

After having Honey installed for years, I'm very disappointed to realize it's an enormous scam.

"Click on the Honey button during checkout and Honey will automatically apply the best coupon codes to your shopping cart at over 10,000 stores."

A lie :(

- Honey works with stores to offer users lower coupons than what they would be able to find on the internet, to generate more profit for companies.
- Honey 'steals' influencer affiliate links by overwriting it with its own if you click on "the Honey button", even if it hasn't found you a discount, effectively stealing their profits.

Time to go back to searching the internet for good coupon codes, I'm not trusting Honey anymore.

I have never, not once received a coupon from running this addon, and after watching YouTuber MegaLag's video on the extension, I'm pretty sure I now know why.
