Capital One Shopping: Save Now by Capital One Shopping
Review by Parker Mauney
Rated 1 out of 5
by Parker Mauney, 9 months agoThis add-on launches many requests without any user interaction if it detects a coupon code section on a page. Sometimes it'll roll through as many as 20 different codes, applying each of them to determine the amount saved. Often times this automatic runaway process straight up breaks sites or shopping carts by triggering rate limiters or overriding manually-selected discounts/affinities. The settings are - I believe - somehow managed through the capitaloneshopping web site, but it is not at all clear what settings will change what behavior in the add-on. If the Capital One name were not tied to this add-on then I would instantly disregard it as malicious. The links section here all point to generic web pages that are not at all related to the add-on which frankly behaves like it's compromised.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18444817, 3 hours agoOn installation, the user has to go through a set-up process. It asks for your email. I have a throw-away email address, no problem. Then it requires setting a password. For a browser add-on? Ok, entered. Then my zip code. It says it needs that to calculate shipping. Ok, but you're starting to make me nervous. Then, it asks for your phone number. Says it won't work without it. Uh, no thanks Capital One Shopping add-on, I think I'll decline. This is one of the most privacy-violating add-ons or apps I've seen in a long, long time. Mostly all developers have realized folks just don't go for that anymore so they quit asking. Not this add-on, they want everything you're willing to give them.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Allen, 2 months agoThe rewards are nice, and occasionally it finds a better price at another site when I am shopping on Amazon, but I am beginning to seriously dislike the automatic application of coupons on some sites. On more than one occasion, it has replaced a coupon code that I had entered with another code that was not as good and made it difficult to use the code I wanted. It would be much better if the codes could be offered to the user without automatically applying them.
