PayPal continues to develop its shopping and checkout experiences to deliver customers more ways to save, earn rewards, and pay later, helping to take their money further. Today, we are announcing the PayPal Honey mobile Safari extension1, a new way for U.S. customers to automatically search for coupons and earn points on eligible transactions that can be redeemed for cash back. PayPal Honey is a trusted online shopping tool uniquely designed to search for savings, and this new feature harnesses powerful deal-seeking technology to make mobile shopping more rewarding.
With one in three Americans making weekly mobile purchases2, and 57% concerned about inflation on back-to-school products3, the PayPal Honey mobile Safari extension is built to help customers shop confidently and maximize savings and rewards on mobile. The new mobile extension makes it easy and convenient to find deals at a time when consumers are looking to get more value from their purchases. PayPal’s shopping experiences help customers navigate the fast-changing economic landscape by saving time and money wherever they like to shop, from mobile to desktop, and in-store or in wallet. Across the entire shopping journey, from discovery to checkout and beyond, PayPal is transforming shopping to deliver consistently rewarding experiences so customers can save and do more with their money.
“Shoppers have a lot to overcome in the current environment, managing the impact of inflation and other issues that are stretching their wallets. Additionally, their shopping behaviors have evolved over the past two years – forcing them to rethink how they get the best possible deals when they are shopping,” said Chris Hammer, GM and VP of Shopping at PayPal. “PayPal has always put the customer at the center of what we do – and as we look to provide them with more value, the PayPal Honey mobile Safari extension makes it easier than ever to maximize savings and rewards.”
The mobile Safari extension works just like the PayPal Honey
desktop extension which consumers know and love, and it's fast to install. To access this new mobile deal searching feature, customers with Safari iOS 15+ will need to download the PayPal app and click on the "Deals” tab, follow the simple prompts to set up an account and enable the browser extension. Once installed, customers can shop the way they normally do on their favorite sites, and the PayPal Honey mobile extension will search for deals with cash back and working coupons and apply the ones with the biggest savings it finds at checkout. Once rewards are earned they can be redeemed for cash or other exciting offers.
