Description from store
Where normal ad-blockers fail, this extension is designed to tackle the stubborn adverts and sponsored items on eBay and Amazon. No more "sponsored" products in your search results AND the vast majority of adverts aggressively removed on both sites.
Even really good advert blockers such as AdBlock and Adblock Plus struggle and fail at getting rid of these. eBay specifically obfuscates the fact that specific search results are sponsored in their own code. This extension gets rid of those for you.
★ NO more sponsored items
★ All the major eBay & Amazon sites are checked with this extension.
★ See the real results on the marketplaces, not what someone else has paid to put there
★ Far less adverts on both eBay & Amazon
Over the years, especially on eBay (but Amazon too) the amount of adverts has just become silly. Combine this with the number of "sponsored" results where someone has paid to "bump" their product up the list, half the time you can't see or find the items you're supposed to be looking at.
★ How do I get rid of sponsored ads on Amazon?
Simple, press the "Add to Chrome" button above and refresh the page. Job done.
★ How do I get rid of pesky adverts on eBay?
Simple, press the "Add to Chrome" button above and refresh the page. Job done.
♥ Your Help to make this extension better!
If you spot an advert on either eBay or Amazon, let the developer know by sending them the link and screenshot so we can get that blocked too.
★ Why does this extension need access to the browser "tabs"?
Because we need to know whether the tab you have open is eBay or Amazon, that’s all. Plus this extension is restricted to just eBay & Amazon domains.
★ Why does this extension need access to the browser "storage"?
The extension counts the number of times an advert or sponsored element is blocked. It counts these numbers only and shows them to you the options page (we never see this, or anything else for that matter).
While testing this extension thousands upon thousands of adverts & sponsored items were removed. We're sure your count will exceed this in absolutely no time.

Latest reviews
- (2022-01-26) Peter Parker: Great idea but didn't work for me (ebay.co.uk)
- (2021-12-26) Joe G: This is the only extension I could find that could actually remove the sponsored search results. I couldn't even get rid of them with ublock. Only issue is that it blocks Keepa which I use to track pricing. I really hope that can be fixed.
- (2021-11-21) Janice Alost: This extension was working UNTIL eBay started putting their sponsored and similar item postings within the item listing/item description. Now, because of that change on their website, this app is useless because it doesn't block those at all.
- (2021-10-31) Uddipan Dasgupta: It works on Amazon website very well
- (2021-10-06) James Utting: This simply did NOT work on the Australian ebay.com.au website. This was a huge failure as all ebay Sponsored items were still listed in abundance. Please update this extension to work effectively on the Australian ebay website.
- (2021-05-29) Scot Davis: Although it does effectively remove the sponsored ads from Amazon search results, it ALSO interferes with and prevents/blocks the KEEPA price history & tracking extension from showing up on product detail pages. While getting rid of those annoying sponsored ads is important in search results, being able to track & see a products price history when prices on Amazon rise and fall regularly like the stock market, is MORE important. Unless you are able to fix this issue, I will have to remove it. Sorry.
- (2021-05-06) Mark: Hides everything on eBay.com, not just sponsored items. What a POS. Deleted.
- (2021-04-11) Lyss: Hides ALL offers on ebay, not only ads.
- (2021-03-08) Pornchai Hemachayart: No items show on Ebay, has to remove it.
- (2021-02-28) Tony Graham: Thanks for offering this extension. It works well on Amazon with one exception. When you use the 'Buy Now' button, a child window opens and it seems the extension is blocking the contents of these windows. An opportunity for refinement.
- (2021-01-03) Matthew Barnes: Brilliant extension - big thanks to the developer! Works very effectively on Amazon UK (Smile) for me.
- (2020-12-09) Florian: It's great but I had to uninstall it because it breaks the Keepa Amazon Tracker extension. If the developer fixes that problem I'll be happy to install it again and update my review.
- (2020-11-03) JESÚS MAURICIO: snob
- (2020-10-15) nate b: totally ineffective on both ebay and amazon carts, sponsored items sections and credit card ads still show up no problem
- (2020-10-10) Anton Ruse: When enabled, this extension blocks "Keepa" which is another extension that keep track on Amazon price(history and future). Please fix that so I can give the deserved 5 stars. Would also appreciate if you follow up on this comment...
- (2020-10-06) Stanton McCandlish: MOSTLY works, including at smile.amazon.com, which was a failure of several previous extensions of this sort. Ad-blocking is always an arms race, of course, so I wasn't expecting 100% perfection out of this. As someone else reported, since mid-2020 or so, Amazon has introduced a new form of sponsored ad in the middle of listings. E.g., I see one now if I go to Amazon and search for "PCIe gen 4". About 1/3 of the way down the page, there's a big pic of a Sabrent SSD, and next to it (to the left) a sponsored listing for that item). So, it's probably a new DIV class that this extension is not yet detecting (as of this writing). Suggestion: I would actually like to see some fine-tunable control. For example, below item details at Amazon (on the items pages, not in the search listings), there are usually side-scrollable bars of related/competing products ("Sponsored products related to this item", and "4 stars and above"). Some of the similar side-scroller lists ("Related sponsored items", "Similar sponsored items") remain visible at eBay, too. I actually find these helpful (great way to find a better/cheaper item than what you were just about to buy), even if I find the sponsored pollution of search results a real headache and am glad this extension is nuking that stuff. However, Amazon listing pages usually also have "Frequently bought together" (which is b.s. – it often mistakenly lists the exact same item again, from another vendor), and "Special offers and product promotions" which is rarely relevant (it's almost always just spam for Amazon's own credit card, digital media services, etc.). I would love to never see those two sections ever again, even if I want to keep the two side-scroller sections. But there are probably people who would want them ALL eliminated. Anyway, overall this extension is a vast improvement over the last half-dozen I've tried, most of which seem to have worked at one point and then "died" some time between 2017 and now, when the developers failed to keep up with changes in Amazon's ad coding. Plus this one also deals with eBay. I feel this is genuinely worth all 5 stars at this point, even if that new kind of Amazon ad can sneak through, and even if I would like to see some options to block particular kinds of ad sections on listing pages.
- (2020-07-03) Paul Lesogor: Works great for most sponsored ads. Might be new as of July 2020, but they have new wide bar AD's that show up at the bottom or between pages in the search results. They are "Sponsored" links, you can see them really pop as they are the width of the results. But overall it works good about 90%, if you can fix the new ones, 100%
- (2020-06-30) Daniel Landrum: Using this for Amazon. Much better for sorting by price.
- (2020-03-03) Peter Kionga-Kamau: THANK YOU! OMG what is even the point of sorting by price to be bombarded by sponsored products messing it all up? I was literally about to switch to Amazon. What a lifesaver. You ROCK.
