- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18745555, 20 days agoOwned by Paypal, scam content creators by changing the affiliate link so Honey/Paypal gets the commission instead of the content creator. Absolutely unethical and should not be supported under any conditions.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18745513, 20 days agoThey stole commissions from creators by modifying the affiliate links of the creators that were sponsored, thus pocketing the money for themselves, even if they did nothing to earn it. This would happen when you applied a coupon, used honey gold offers or simply clicked "Got it" when they told you they didn't find anything. Basically, any click resulted in them stealing the commission. That's not all. They also screwed over the customers. Honey tells you the coupons they found are the best possible offer they found by scouring the internet, but that's not true. Stores that partnered with Honey had the ability to tell them which coupons they wanted them to use. For example, say there is a 20% off coupon you can find by searching manually, but the store doesn't want you to find that. So they tell Honey to not use that one, and only show you a 5% discount. So at checkout, you get the popup that a coupon was found, and you apply it. By doing this, you don't go searching for a better one by yourself, because Honey supposedly already gave you the best one. Thus, you leave feeling like you got the best deal, when there were much better coupons out there. All credit for this information goes to the youtuber MegaLag, who found this information during an investigation. Check out his video for more information

Remember, there is no such thing as free money. If they are not selling a product, then YOU are the product - Rated 1 out of 5by Ninja Yoshi, 20 days agoDo not use this. The entire business operation is a fraud. Whenever you buy products through affiliate links and click on Honey to "apply coupons", it will sneakily steal the affiliate link and change it to their own affiliate link, essentially gaining the money from the comission for themselves. Their fraudulent application will appear even if there is no coupons, and if you click to make it disappear, it still changes the affiliate link. It will do anything in it's power to make you click on them, so they can steal the affiliate link. Additionally, they do not always have the best coupons available. If the store wishes so, Honey will not share a better discount code in their "database", despite Honey claiming that they have the "best coupon codes". They intentionally make you not want to search for these codes themselves, so you can get their click. I hope this fraudulent company disappears.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Autosuffisant, 20 days agoTrès déçu de cette extension, après m'être renseigné sur son fonctionnement, j'ai découvert que celle-ci modifie les cookies du navigateur en écrasant les liens de parrainages afin de s'en attribuer les revenus au détriment des critiques, influenceurs et bloggeurs.
Certains sites comptent même sur son usage pour éviter l'usage de codes promos en collaborant avec Honey pour ne pas afficher certains codes promo !
Honteux, je ne l'utiliserai plus jamais. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18745495, 20 days agoSo disappointing, hope all the people who were apart of this get what they deserve
- Rated 1 out of 5by Carlton Polychronopoulos, 20 days agoFraudulent company that steals affiliate revenue from those who deserve it. What's more it doesn't even share the best coupons available.
