Same scam as honey, replaces affiliate codes with their own without even providing a useful service

Utter rubbish. They try to trick you into letting them permanently track you across the entire Internet in exchange for a one-time $15 credit that has more strings attached than Pinocchio. 🙄 And you have to create YET ANOTHER account to do it at that, you can't even just log in with your existing Capital One account, you must create a separate Capital One Shopping account to give them all of your personal information all over again to get hacked and breached and leaked. 😒

affiliate overriding

This is another cog in the wheel of affiliate jacking, and pretty much a very deceptive scam.

This was installed on my PC without my consent, it's basically malware. I really want to know how this got installed on my computer, though. I'm tech savvy and this still managed to infect my pc.

It slows down web pages as it's searching, and it can take a bit at that, just like other add ons of this type. Other than that, it does what it's supposed to do.

Not great. Going to website and seeing the deals like $5 for a $60 hoodie, and then seeing that the price comes out to $72 after tax. Instead of a 90% discount, its a 20% increase in listed price.

Haven't checked the cookies thing for overriding the affiliate marketing like honey does. But looking at UI its probably similar.

Installed WITHOUT my consent.

SCAM. The extension stays active and tracks your activity. i was Ok with this if I got the discounts they promised. However, 8/10 times their system conveniently "doesn't record" the sale / purchase you made so you don't get your credit. It's great in concept but they have a great way of scamming you by only sometimes recording your purchases so you only sometimes get the promised rewards. Be Aware.

Got an email saying I'd get a $10 bonus if I downloaded this extension, so I went through the entire process to download this app, create an account, enter my number, enter the text verification code, download the android app, just to be told that I can't get the bonus because I don't have an iPhone! What a waste of time, is it that hard to make that clear RIGHT IN THE EMAIL? Uninstalling immediately.

I've had this extension installed for at least a year now. It frequently pops up and tells me I can get X% cash back. It does this at checkout. I click the button to get the cash back. It reloads the page. I can see they have appended affiliate information to the URL. I complete the checkout. Never get cash back. No adblockers are enabled. It's either a deliberate scam or incompetent developers. Either way there are other cash back companies that I'm moving on to that offer lower cash back, but actually give it every time.

[Submitted on Sep. 24, 2024]This extension has Never been accurate, but it occasionally used to be somewhat helpful in showing a lower (but NOT the lowest) price available when used on either Firefox or Spygle Chrome. Often it linked to a different product - sometimes by the same manufacturer, sometimes not. Recently it has become Totally Worthless. It will nearly ALWAYS show the Amazon or occasionally E-bay price as "Best" when in the tab next to it, I have the Exact Same Product open from Walmart or Home Depot or Kohl's etc. for substantially less. It no longer even offers the option on their webpage for the "deal" to select "Inaccurate Price" or "Different Product". It just makes the shopping sites take a Whole Lot Longer to finish loading, no matter whether all ad blocking is removed/disabled or not. Their "Apply Coupons" seldom works. When I actually use this junk to purchase something with "Capital One Rewards, they no longer bother to actually credit "Rewards" to my account. I Should have over $40 U.S.D. in rewards, but have less than twenty cents. It takes between eight and twelve tries to get past the scummy "captcha" to sign in to my account. They Track and Record Everything You Do on your browser(and likely sell and trade that information) . It has become nothing but irritating, webpage-slowing Spyware.

wont take my password to use it while on website don't know why as it is add on for firefox browser and would like a answer for this issue

This is as bad as Honey. Uninstalling it too.

The only "savings" this app ever shows is if the item is on E-Bay. It has never given me any codes that actually work, ever.

It is a huge invasion of privacy and you get nothing in return. Literally nothing but longer check out times, more of your data leaving your private emails and shopping, and unnecessary spam coming back when data is sold.

1. This extension has hooks to prevent being deleted when you attempt to uninstall it. This alone should be grounds for removal from the marketplace. ONCE INSTALLED, THIS CANNOT BE UNINSTALLED - FIREFOX WAS UNABLE TO REMOVE EXTENSION IN TROUBLESHOOTING MODE. Functionally, this is a virus.
2. Capital One advertises this extension as earning you $40 off an order you are placing in return for installing the extension. This is a straight-up lie and constitutes fraud.
3. This extension not only monitors every page you visit, but all your personal data such as reading your emails when you open them (e.g. GMail) - it says so right in the privacy policy. How is this legal? How has this not received any pushback? If Google said they'd be advertising to you based on your doctor's email to you, there would be hell to pay.

uesless. does not provide any realized savings. The savings it offers at walmart are literally $0.02. The savings offered at Amazon are off the list price, not amazon's price, so often there is no savings and when there are it is $1-$1.50 on a $100+ item, less than 1% savings, and you have to order from some other merchant who does not provide 2 day shipping

After a purchase from a legitimate retailer, I got a false offer to get $40 credit if I installed this browser extension. I installed it, and of course, no $40 Capital One credit. I did have a $15 reward listed, but it only applied to a gift card purchase, and the only retailer I had any interest in has a minimum gift card purchase of $25. I'm not shocked that the gift card credit was a lie, but since the offer came after a purchase on a legit website, it makes it more fraudulent.

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME! On capital one page they promised 30 to try this. This is a joke, made me install extensions on all browsers, accept millions of terms, create logins and in the end, when all was created, no 30 on my account. STAY AWAYYYYY!
