Honey's deal-hunting browser extension is accused of ripping off influencers
Briefly

In a recent video, YouTuber MegaLag criticizes the PayPal Honey extension, claiming it fails to find better deals and instead prioritizes its own partnerships, thus misleading users.
MegaLag alleges that Honey hijacks affiliate revenue from content creators by using its own tracking links, thus taking credit for sales generated by influencer links.
Despite allegations of unethical practices, PayPal's Josh Criscoe insists Honey adheres to industry standards, including last-click attribution, raising questions about transparency.
Many users now seek alternatives to Honey, especially after reports of its controversial practices, which include failing to provide optimal coupon codes and misappropriating affiliate revenue.
