Topic summary
Store owners are seeking ways to prevent browser extensions like Honey from automatically applying discount codes at checkout, particularly VIP or exclusive codes not meant for public use. This issue disrupts referral programs and reduces profit margins.
Attempted Solutions:
- One merchant successfully got Honey to de-list their site by flooding the extension with provocative coupon codes like “HONEY-STEALS-YOUR-DATA”
- Several developers offered custom JavaScript solutions to block these extensions
Available Tools:
Multiple commercial services emerged offering blocking capabilities:
- blockcouponextensions.com (by Clean.io)
- Veeper app (starting at $59/month) - claims to be “the only app that still works”
- Custom scripts from independent developers
Pricing Concerns:
Some merchants expressed frustration with costs, noting solutions around $300/month as prohibitively expensive.
Current Status:
The discussion remains ongoing with no clear consensus on the most effective or cost-efficient solution. Merchants continue seeking alternatives to protect exclusive discount codes from being scraped and publicly shared.
Hi, we financially guarantee to block discount code browser extensions in
Creator and Influencer campaigns. Would you like to learn how to get
started?
Yes please! Just signed up.
We developed an app that blocks 25+ coupon extensions like Honey, Capital One Shopping, Retailmenot, Coupert, and so many others.
It not only blocks them from auto injecting, but even blocks them from showing up in the first place.
But even more exciting, we also crawl 100+ coupon sites and let you know exactly what code leaked out to which site.
No one can fully block extensions from scraping. That’s just sadly a thing that isn’t possible, but at least you’ll know about it, and if you are on a plus plan, we can also disable it in checkout.
Best part! It’s affordable and as low as $29/mo.
