Honey App Reviews
About Honey App
The Honey App, found online at JoinHoney.com, is a new browser plugin extension which says their goal is to ensure that their members “never miss a coupon code, ever again.”
How Does It Work?
According to their website, the Honey App is a new service that “makes it ridiculously easy to save money and time.” Their job is to automatically find the best coupon codes for the website when you are currently shopping and then apply them to your order when you check out.
In order to use the Honey App, you simply need to download it and install it on your desktop browser. The Honey button will appear in your browser bar. Whenever you are shopping at one of their partner stores, you can click on the Honey button to view all available sales and coupon codes.
If you are already in the checkout process, you can click the Find Savings button and Honey will automatically find and then apply the best coupon or coupons for your purchase.
This website also says that they offer something called HoneyGold, which customers get when they take advantage of an exclusive offer. This HoneyGold can eventually be used toward rewards like Amazon gift cards, and more.
Mobile Options
At this time, the Honey App is available on desktop versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera. The website says that they are currently working on expanding their desktop browser options, and have a plan to offer a mobile application in the near future so this app can be used when mobile shopping.
Cost/Price Plans
The Honey App is actually completely free to download and to use at this time, and the website says that they are able to provide this service completely free to their members because they earn a small commission from the stores they partner with at certain times when one of their members makes a purchase.
Refund Policy
Because the Honey App is completely free to use at this time, they do not offer their customers a Refund Policy, and any customer who uses this app to make a purchase must go directly to the third party website where they actually made their purchase and follow their stated Return and Refund Policies.
Customer Service Contact Info
Customers who would like to contact Customer Service with any questions, concerns, or complaints can do so by submitting them directly to their website through their Contact Us link on their website.
Reputation
Currently the Honey App appears to have very positive reviews, both from their users and from technology blogs and websites that are excited about the concept of a browser extension being able to automatically apply coupon codes.
Unfortunately this website does not provide a lot of information about how their HoneyGold rewards program works and what people can expect to earn from it if they decide to take advantage of the exclusive offers that earn it for you.
Competitors and Alternatives?
There are many other mobile applications that attempt to help people save money with their regular shopping habits, including Quidco, Checkout 51, Ibotta App, and many others.

No thanks, Honey.
Honey, a total scam.
Honey is a bloody scam made by people who only care for money. They used Mr Beast for adverts and that Honey is a great app, you can save money...NOT TRUE!!!!
Honey leaves hundreds of emails a day. I get thousands of phone calls and they are even calling on my son's phone! A couple of days ago, I had to spend hours looking for my email address because HONEY CHANGED IT!
During this pandemic, everything that people advertise are scams to make as much money as possible. For example, Starscope Monocular, Honey, Ecosia, etc.
Never trust the Internet. Don't let greedy people make money and lose yours.
Have never saved anything!
pretty good!
It is an advertising scam.
They say the app is free. come on, NOTHING is free.
they say they get a commission from the vendors. FALSE.
they make their money from selling the information, from the suckers that join the app. hence, a flood of emails, snail mails, and phone calls from dozens and dozens of companies that you have never done business with.
Thank you. That's why I am searching about it. I usually search for coupon codes when checking out online and the idea of Honey is appealing to me, but I am trying to figure out their angle. The way they are running ads all over tells me that they aren't sustaining themselves on a tip from the seller. I'll be damned if I need a bunch of targeted ads based on things that I already bought.
SCAM.
acting chops?
Scam!
Same thing happened to me.
Not credited
Used to be good, but not worth it anymore.
I do not like having my information shared with all the other companies.
I signed up for honey and was really enjoying the discount coupons but when it came time to collect my honey gold I realized that my email had been changed to Russian affiliation,and a email name I never heard of, my amazon gift cards went to it, I tried changing it several times but it kept going back to that bogus account so I opted out of the app
Maybe you should read before you click accept on everything in a sign up process, if you agree for them to share your email, then they will. I've had no emails because I knew not to agree to it.
Watch Your Personal Information
This can in no way access your payment information as a Chrome extension, stop trying to scare people
Thank you so much for sharing and awesome advise.
Horible
they use codes that might've already expired. they cant really help it. i used it today and only 1 of 5 worked but it still saved me for 40 bucks
check your email address with them
Have that problem with Amazon period! Has nothing to do with honey. Amazon is not a good way to judge Honey.
I Love It!
lol Vivian do you think people can't pick up when someone who works for the company is writing these reviews? Like literally you couldn't have made the fakeness of all your replies to these comments more obvious.
very bad
Vivian Vicky and Alfie Atkinson. Funny thing about alliteration and assonance: it is easy to spot. It seems like it is also easy to fall into a pattern when making fake account names. Interesting that the pro-Honey people all have 5 star reviews with suspiciously similarly constructed names and very few details. Wasn't it Vivian Vicky who saved $40 one time? Wow. I know I am ready to hand over my credit card information! Alfie, did you give any details or just insult someone for being ignorant of an illegal activity?
Seems like almost everyone who has had experience with the company as a customer for any length of time has a similar story with several details revealed in their reviews with the same conclusion: suspected scam.
Those who back up Honey at least have cool names and viciously back their employer...err, I mean . . . no, yeah. That was what I meant.
I think I'll follow the crowd who back up their claims with at least a few details. On the other hand, I could just jump on the wagon with people who have clever names and cumbersome comebacks towards customers who accidentally misuse a word. Yes. I will certainly join with those who bash in the heads of anyone who cares to make a claim against the obviously angelic company who has attracted the attention of people who become particularly perturbed when Honey is persecuted!
"after you have had your information hacked" please don't say things like this when you clearly don't know what "hacking" is, honey is not malicious, too many people try to scare others.
Not worth it, after you have had your information hacked!
Vivian Vicky. What personal information does Honey sell to other sellers when you access there site thru Honey?
Why go to the trouble of googling when Honey does the work for you immediately? I love it!
Love it!
I've saved so much using honey. I have saved on Amazon, Groupon, airline tickets and so much more. Not exactly sure how the rewards work, but it doesn't matter. I wish I was keeping track of how much I have saved, but it's over $1,000 easily!
check for yourself before assuming it found the best deal
Vivian, Really? You don't know how to search Amazon for products?
Not sure how Honey makes money for itself but I find it very useful and have saved money. What do you mean 'checking yourself in Amazon'?
joinHoney.com is a complete SCAM
I joined joinHoney.com in July 2018 when it offered a $30 cash back if purchased certain amount at Macy's directed from joinHoney.com website, which I did.
The transaction pending for a while on joinHoney.com after the purchase waiting to be verify. So I figured like Ebates, joinHoney.com will send a check to me.
Well, the Experience Specilitist of joinHoney.com I chat with, talked like a Used Car Salesmen, refused to honor the offer.
joinHoney.com is a SCAM
You're a shill though Vivian.
I think Honey is great. It saved me money and I love it!
waste of my time
It is greatly annouing
just right click on the icon, and then click options. that will take you to browser extentions and click delete. as it gives you options to deactivate or delete, by deleting it you will no longer have it on your system. worked for me on opera browser
