you know why I'm leaving this. leech app, horrendus.

As y'all have seen from other comments, Honey has been scamming both consumers and influencers out of our money.

They've lied to consumers about finding "the best deal" when in reality many of the businesses they partner with and offer coupons for have asked for them to be selective about the coupons they offer. This screws us consumers over because we then don't think to scour the internet for better deals that are likely out there.

For your favorite influencers, whenever you click an affiliate link they provide, if you click on ANY Honey pop-up, it'll override their commission and that commission goes to Honey instead. And even further, even if they "give you rewards" for that commission they made, you're potentially getting less than 1% of that commission.

I should've known from the beginning it was too good to be true (apparently Markiplier even predicted years ago that something was off about Honey even if he didn't know what), but I especially should've known something was wrong when Paypal with their annoying selves bought Honey.

I assume everyone is leaving one star reviews for the same reason. If you aren't aware, look up "Honey Influencer Scam" on YouTube. Absolutely disgusting practice on PayPal's part.

It turns out Honey has been a scam and committing fraud for years. For details and an explanation, watch MegaLag's investigative report "Exposing the Honey Influencer Scam" on youtube.

works with websites to deliver the worst coupon codes possible (hoping you dont go around online looking for better deals), and also scams it's affiliates

scam

Scam!!

This is a complete 3-way scam, phishing, possibly fraud, and definitely false advertising.
There is no way that this is legal in any western nation.
The fact that this simple browser extension was sold for over 4 billion usd should be enough of a red flag that something is very shady about this by itself.
Its replacing affiliate links from influencers they sponsor without their (or the users) consent.
And actively working with shops to withhold coupon codes instead of 'giving you the best deals' as it claims too.
Frequently inserts affiliate links in without user consent by using browser notification 'get away' buttons and paypal checkout links as affiliate links.
And to top it all of frequently seems to be scamming the shops as well.

Scam, scummy business

Misleads you into thinking you're getting the best coupon codes, while actually hiding best coupon codes from you.

This browser extension is a scam. Honey steals money from affiliate links stealing millions every year from influencers/creators. In addition, they partner with shops to approve these discount codes, so it prompts discount finders to not get the best deals. Do not download this scam if you actually are looking to save money.

Scam. Do not download.
