Honey: Automatic Coupons & Rewards

if i could give this 0 stars, i would, the app scams youtubers affiliate links none other then to make an easy dollar, this extension makes the discover card look like luxury for christ sake

This used to be my favorite browser extension, but not any more. Ever since PayPal took over it's become useless and more of a pain than a help. Honey used to offer useful coupons and discounts, not any more. Honey used to droplist items you put into your Amazon lists then notify you when the price drops below a pre-set amount that the user decides, no more. Honey is useless and with PayPal vacuuming up data it's really more malware than anything else.

I used Honey for years thinking it helped me save money, but recently learned its business model prioritizes their profit, not the best deals for users. I decided to delete my account after redeeming a few thousand pending points, but despite weeks of emails and chat attempts, I got no response. At this point, it feels like a scam.

scam

Would give zero - DOES NOT display accurate pricing... I had item from Amazon in cart watching price after, a botched delivery resulted in item being sent back, and item prices was significantly higher on "HONEY" than what I paid for it for the same time period... Kept checking price and noting, waiting on "Prime Day" and price was also lower day before "Prime Day" and lower than Honey reported... So I will be uninstalling and disconcontinue the use of Honey - for posting false prices making user think they are getting the "Best Deal"... Will be checking out Capital One shopping extension...

Whoever discovered the idea for this symbol yet life-changing extension application has to be the laziest genius of all time whoever you are, you are amazing. Saying lazy genius is not an insult. It's a proven statistic of that people who are lazy and successful or not just lazy. They just know how to get things done better quicker making them smarter than most people. So shout out to whoever made this you're also saving people a lot of money thank you.

really wish paypal didnt ruin this app in the way they did. it actually used to be useful for finding discounts

Was great until Paypal took over, now it just harvests your data for nothing in return...

useless

Honey extension stopped working earlier this year - in spite of my clicking it and verifying points were being earned (on my eBay purchases paid through PayPal!), I got ZERO points. I contacted them, they responded, asked for a ton of information they should have already had, then gave me points to make up for the ones I never got... but didn't fix the issue. Contacted them again and they responded, asked for same information... and have done nothing. I am still not receiving points. I was also advised by my tech guy' to remove it, as it is well-known for 'trackers'... so if it doesn't work, there is no point in keeping it.

this app is awesome !! never hurts to see if you can save some money, and you can even keep an eye on an item to see if pricing goes down, it will also tell you price in the last 6 months AMAZING

This app has saved me $1000's of dollar since I started using it! It is easy and so helpful.

Useful for price-drop tracking only. The points system is just broken. Despite having this connected to my PayPal account and using it for months, and allowing it at whatever e-commerce site it wants to be allowed at, I have "0 points". Use the Capital One Shopping (formerly WikiBuy) extension instead for that; it really will earn points you can turn into gift cards. Honey is also essentially useless for the coupon-code trying feature. In nearly a year of using this annoying thing, my total coupon code savings is "$0.81", so basically it's always trying to apply expired or otherwise bogus codes. Several times I've had websites lock me out for attempting too many codes, because of what this extension does. The Capital One competing extension also does coupon codes.

Markiplier was right. Complete scam

SCAM. This is a scam on multiple levels. Monitors and collects personal data as well

Sad downfall

So disappointing. I used Honey all the time but now they have canceled their service and are trying to force customers into sharing their Paypal details. I will be removing this from Chrome.

Wow! Thanks for saving me $13.00 on my order.

a scam

Stop SCAMING people

I'd give you guys a negative rating if it was possible you sneaky scammin sobs.

Scam. Disgusting

sneaky scam, check and search on youtube for more info

you guys do good. thanks much!

It was great for a long time. It seems to be having some technical issues now. I don't know if it's the Chrome connection? It worked great on Firefox.

sneaky scam

yuck

Honey is a SCAM! Look it up on youtube!

best love honey

Honey is AWFUL!! I've rarely gotten a coupon that worked. And when I did, it probably always made sure I got a bad one. This scummy extension is also stealing commissions from creators by hijacking last click attribution. If you're reading this, don't install. Switched to Peel for price comparison and Caramel for coupons. Both are privacy-first and use creator affiliate links.

ive never seen it actually find a valid coupon for me

I've been using Honey for years. I have saved so much money thanks to this browser extension. I've gone to make purchases that I never would've even considered there might be a coupon code for, but the Honey ext reminds me with a prompt and to my delight and surprise, it has found major discounts for me that I'd never have found otherwise. I came here to give it a 5-star rating, but after reading the other reviews and then doing some research about how Honey has stolen the commissions earned by hard-working content creators, affiliates, "influencers", I'm not feeling quite so good about it. At least Google forced them to stop completely ripping off the incomes earned by individuals, but I still don't think they're totally playing fair and I genuinely hope the Class Action Lawsuit results in all those people getting what they earned 10-fold. It it cripples PayPal and Honey gets shut down, I won't be mad at all. I'll celebrate actually. Until then, when I can tell I'm not letting them get credit that's due elsewhere, I'll take the discounts.

They have started advertising on Google search listings. You must create an account to change settings. Bad development practices. They just want your data. They replace affiliate links with their own to generate revenue. Used to be cool, they got greedy and now are scumbags. Switched to Caramel. They are open source and more privacy forward. They also use creator affiliate links rather than their own.

What an insane scam this is. Just go google The Honey Scam of 2024.

does not work when finding coupons

Heads up! Your Gold expires in 30 days! F off, this is nothing but a greedy business practice.

barely/rarely works

Used to work, last few times I've tried it its made my cart substantially more expensive 🙃 thanks a lot. BYE

Great when it works-- but it works seldom. The pop-up to test for coupon codes rarely works on many sites, and the only way you can redeem rewards is through PayPal.

I used to think Honey was a harmless way to save a few bucks at checkout, but after learning what’s really going on behind the scenes, I immediately uninstalled it. Honey has been exposed for quietly replacing creators’ affiliate links with its own, effectively hijacking commissions meant for influencers and content creators who actually recommended the product. It feels incredibly dishonest — the creators do all the work, and Honey intercepts the payout. Worse, the so-called “best deals” it shows are often controlled or prioritized by merchants, meaning you’re not always getting the best coupon or discount available. It’s more about pushing what benefits them, not you. This isn’t just some small bug — it’s a pattern of behavior that prioritizes corporate profit over transparency and user trust. The fact that Google had to update its extension policies because of Honey says a lot. Bottom line: It’s not just a bad extension — it’s an unethical one. Do your favorite creators a favor and uninstall it.

saves me money that is a good thing

This is a fraudulent scam that was covered months ago by youtuber MegaLag, don't install this extension and check out his video if you don't believe me

I love Honey!

Honey pop up is invasive. I can't pull up my cart on most purchases because the Honey pop up interferes

Steals commission from affiliates.

horrible

Honey takes referral money and only give you a few reduction in exchange, knowing how much referral are I know the cashback you get is really not fair.

Really good if you want to save money on any of your products while online shopping.

App and website no longer showing coupon codes, so I can't enter them where they are actually needed. Wasted an hour of my life trying to get the codes! and if you remove from traditional checkout page to try to see them all and not just the one it wants to add to your fake cart, the prompt no longer works or gives the option to manually or automatically add codes again.

Great little app. Hopefully they will bring it to mobiles too.
