Everything you need to know about the PromoIQ beta program
No. Never. PromoIQ only activates when you click the extension icon. We don't run in the background, don't track what sites you visit, and don't collect browsing data. This is how we're different from Honey and other extensions.
When you click the extension on a store, we read the current page URL and product info to find relevant codes and prices. We store anonymized usage stats (which stores people use PromoIQ on, which codes worked). We never collect: passwords, payment info, browsing history, personal data, or anything from pages you don't explicitly use PromoIQ on.
Yes. Feedback is stored in Firebase (Google Cloud) with encryption at rest. Your email is only used to follow up on bugs you report. We never sell or share your data.
When you're on a checkout page with a promo code field, click PromoIQ and hit "Auto-Apply." We'll try each known code one by one, measure the discount, and keep the one that saves you the most. It typically takes 10-30 seconds depending on how many codes we have for that store.
Some stores have very few active promo codes, or their codes may be targeted (email-only, first-time buyer, etc.). We're constantly expanding our code database. If you know a working code we missed, report it via the feedback form — you'll help other users!
PromoIQ links you directly to the exact product on other retailers — not a search results page. We also inject affiliate links transparently so we earn a small commission (at no cost to you) which funds the free tier.
PromoIQ works on any store with a promo code field, but we have optimized support for: Amazon, Nike, Target, Walmart, Best Buy, Sephora, Nordstrom, Macy's, Home Depot, Wayfair, Adidas, Under Armour, Etsy, Kohl's, Old Navy, Gap, Zappos, and Lowe's.

The beta runs until we hit our target of 50+ testers with sufficient feedback to validate all core features. We expect this to take 2-4 weeks. You'll keep your beta rewards forever.
Yes! Your savings history, preferences, and account will carry over seamlessly from beta to the public release.
PromoIQ only activates on web pages (http/https). It won't work on browser internal pages (chrome://, about:, etc.), new tab pages, or the Chrome Web Store. Navigate to any online store and the icon will light up.
Some stores use non-standard checkout forms that our detector can't find yet. Please report it via the feedback form with the store URL — we'll add support for it. In the meantime, you can always copy codes manually with one click.
Try these steps:
1. Right-click the PromoIQ icon → "Manage Extension" → toggle off and on
2. Close and reopen Chrome
3. If still broken, uninstall and reinstall the extension
4. If none of that works, report the bug with your Chrome version
