Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about affiliate links, pricing, data, and where Caramel runs

Does Caramel replace or hijack creator affiliate links?

No. The Caramel coupon extension never replaces, overrides, or injects affiliate links — there is no affiliate code anywhere in the extension, and because it is open source you can verify that yourself. Creators keep 100% of their commissions when you shop with Caramel installed.

Is Caramel really free?

Yes. Caramel is free forever — there is no premium tier, no hidden fees, and no credit card required. The project is open source and maintained by Devino Solutions together with community contributors.

What data does the Caramel extension collect?

The extension never sells or shares your personal information, and it contains no ads and no third-party trackers. To do its job it talks to Caramel's own servers: when you reach checkout on a supported store it fetches coupon codes for that store's domain, sends the page and cart context (page title and item names — never payment details) so the right category of codes is chosen, and reports whether a code worked so rankings stay accurate for everyone. Your settings and optional sign-in are kept in your browser's extension storage.

How is Caramel different from Honey?

Honey has been publicly documented replacing creators' affiliate links with its own, and its code is closed source, so its behavior can't be independently audited. Caramel is the opposite by design: fully open source under the AGPL-3.0 license, it never touches affiliate links, and it is free with no premium tier.

Which browsers does Caramel support?

Caramel is available for Chrome on the Chrome Web Store, for Firefox on Firefox Add-ons, for Microsoft Edge on Edge Add-ons, and for Safari through the App Store.

How many coupon codes does Caramel have?

Caramel's catalog holds over 139,000 active coupon codes across more than 3,000 online stores, and it is refreshed continuously as new codes are found and dead ones are retired.

Do I need an account to use Caramel?

No. You can install Caramel and let it apply coupons at checkout without creating an account. Signing in is optional.
