Same thing, but it pops up with the cashback deal you will actually get. It’s at least splitting the money with you
Comment on LegalEagle Suing PayPal's Honey
rustyricotta@lemmy.ml 4 weeks agoI haven’t seen anyone mention Rakuten. I see it occasionally on r/buildapcsales giving a sizable cashback (10-15%) on big ticket items like GPUs or monitors. I’ve used to some benefit, but I assume it’s the same shtick as honey.

It has to be the same shtick as honey, but unlike honey you’re getting some value from it I guess.
For a moment after watching the Honey video, I considered setting up a company and a browser addon to do the same, but be upfront about it: You buy items, we get the affiliate fee, but you get half the affiliate fee as cashback in a month or two when it’s been processed and paid out, at least for some large storefronts like Amazon and then other high ticket items like NordVPN which apparently pays a huge percentage out to affiliates because it’s so overpriced they can have outrageous discounts and/or pay affiliates.
Then I realized it’d be a pain to set up on the legal side of things likely.

Yeah but then you’d have to use Edge.

Not as if this Feature would make edge any better 😂
