Rated 4 out of 5
by Zero, a year agoAlthough a great way to save a few dollars. That's pretty much all you are going to save. Though sadly, you hardly ever get any working coupons and 9 out of 10 times you'll only get gold, which doesn't seem to get added to the gold balance at all even after purchasing the items. I've been stuck on 130 gold since I've downloaded Honey. Got 100 free for signing up and only "gained" 30 gold from online purchases, that actually went through, and all I ever do is order online. The other thing too, is the pop-ups. Wow are they ever annoying. You'll have to get use to going to your cart and seeing bigger then a business card pop-up in the upper right hand corner...constantly. Not to mention the pop-ups on item images when you hover over the image to see a zoomed in photo. Honey needs to tell you when that item was the lowest price or if it's at an all time low. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice feature but needs to be put somewhere else then on the images, frustrating too because sometimes they rarely close out. So, in the end, I am being quite generous with my 4/5 stars. Because it did, after all, save me at least $100 so far. Not all at once but so far in total. And as someone who hardly ever has money...this is quite a lot. Still, worth downloading if you have the computer space and don't mind the few flaws it has.

- Rated 1 out of 5by rocket, a month agoNothing but a data farmer. Been using this extension for about three or four years, basically as soon as the online sponsorship ads started showing up everywhere. In that time I've only ever gotten two usable coupons from Honey, and saved my self less than 20 dollars. Don't be fooled, these guys make their money by selling your data.
- Rated 1 out of 5by NicolasGE, a month agowas using a high amount of ram and rarely if ever got me any coupon codes... worthless
- Rated 1 out of 5by Raven, 2 months agoIt hasn't worked with Amazon in forever, which is the entire point most of us added it. NOW, it wants us to login with PayPal AFTER logging in. I don't care if PayPal owns Honey, they should already have all the info they need, asking for my PayPal password just seems shady AF.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Alkaris, 3 months agoHONEY IS JUST A COMMON EVERYDAY SCAM THAT DOESN'T PAYOUT REWARDS ANYMORE.
While you might be saving on purchases, the rewards system no longer gives out rewards. Honey makes $0 when you save money with coupon codes, because they blew all their funding on Sponsored Ad blocks.
The last time this extension was updated was 4 years ago. so I'd say the team at Honey don't care about it anymore. Don't waste your time with Honey, whatever points you've accumulated over the years, throw your entire account to the trash, as it can't be redeemed on anything. If you try to redeem something it'll say you redeemed your points for it, but doesn't deduct points, or give you the reward you redeemed for.
SUPPORT NO LONGER ANSWERS SUPPORT TICKETS OR EMAILS. - Rated 5 out of 5by benmerry, 3 months ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by Rhytz, 3 months agoRarely -if ever- provided a working coupon code, so the popup that claimed otherwise became an annoyance. I deleted it again
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18553247, 3 months agoAutomatically linked my PayPal account to itself, without my permission. Then, it would not let me login without logging in to PayPal.
Deleted.
Worthless crap anyway...never works, I have used this app for well over 5 years and none of the points ever accumulate, it takes months upon months to get anything back, and when you do, it is a terrible point to purchase ratio and point magically disappear without warning and no way to get any live person on the phone to help with anything.
Save your time, privacy, and everything else and uninstall this bloatware. - Rated 4 out of 5by blxiii, 3 months ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by CheeseburgerWalrus, 4 months agoFor such a praised addon, I have to say this is the most annoying and useless addon I have ever had the displeasure of using. It rarely works on the sites I'd like it to work on, and even when it does it constantly pops up telling me it can save me money only for every single discount code to fail.
Probably just an addon used to track analytics of online shoppers. Nothing more. Might save you a couple bucks somewhere down the road, but not enough to be worth the headache. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18492113, 4 months ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Browncore, 5 months agoNot easy to use, not intuitive, barely works. Saved me maybe $15 in 3 years of use.
- Rated 1 out of 5by kftX, 5 months agoLike most people here, I've noticed the PayPal tomfoolery afoot. Now it even tries to force you to link or use a linked PayPal account to do something as basic as logging in. Stay away from this trash. Used to be amazing. Not so much now.
