PromoIQ: Coupon Finder & Price Comparison

PromoIQ is a coupon finder and price comparison tool that does nothing until you click it. Click its icon on a store page and it shows promo codes for that store with the proof behind each one, tries them in your cart when you ask, and looks for the exact same product at other stores. What PromoIQ sends: only after you click it, the store's web domain and, on a product page, the product details. Daily anonymous counts (seven numbers, no ID) are on by default to measure how well codes and price checks work; turn them off in Settings. Sharing which codes worked is off unless you turn it on. Full list: https://promoiq.co/privacy WHAT IT DOES Click the PromoIQ icon (or press Alt+P, Option+P on a Mac). A side panel opens next to the page and shows: - Codes for this store, grouped by how much proof is behind each one. - On a cart or checkout page, a "Try these codes for me" button. - On a product page, the same product at other stores, lowest total price first. PromoIQ is not limited to a list of stores. It reads the page you click it on, and only that page. CODES WITH PROOF Many codes posted online have expired or come with conditions, so PromoIQ never calls them all "working." Each code sits in one of four groups, plus one optional group: - Worked just now in your cart: PromoIQ applied it and saw your order total go down. - Worked for PromoIQ shoppers: shoppers who chose to share results saw it lower their total in the last 30 days. The panel says how many days ago. - From the store's own site: printed on the page you are on, or published by the store. Not tested yet. - Found online, untested: found on another website, with that site's name and the date. - Common codes to try: codes many stores use that were not found for this store. They are tried only if you tick the box to also try common codes. A code PromoIQ tried in your cart that did not lower the total moves to "Tried in your cart". "Worked" only ever means PromoIQ saw a checkout total drop. IT TRIES THE CODES FOR YOU On a cart or checkout page, press "Try these codes for me." PromoIQ types up to 12 codes found for this store into the store's code box (plus up to 8 common codes if you tick that box, so 20 at most), one at a time, and reads your order total after each. It takes off the codes that did not help and leaves the best one applied, with a live log of every step. If a store won't let a code be removed, the panel tells you which code is still there. If your cart already had a code, it compares that code fairly and puts it back if nothing beats it. Your own code is shown as "Your code", never as something PromoIQ found. If a code saves more than yours and the store won't combine them, the better one stays, and the log says so. If no code lowers your total, it says so: "No code works here." Trying codes works on carts in US dollars for now. It stops when the store needs you, for example to sign in or finish a security check. If the store reloads the page during a run, click the icon again to keep going. It never places an order and never reads or fills in payment, address or account details. Some checkouts hide the code box or work in ways it cannot read. When that happens the panel says so, and you can still copy any code. THE SAME PRODUCT AT OTHER STORES On a product page, PromoIQ reads the product from the page (name, brand, model, part number, barcode and store item numbers, price, currency, condition, and the color, size or option you picked) and looks for the exact same item at other stores, matched by barcode, by brand and model, or by brand and exact name. It shows up to five offers with price, condition and shipping when known, each linking straight to that store's own product page. If nothing matches exactly, it says "No exact match found at other stores" instead of showing look-alikes. Price checks cover new items at stores in the United States, in US dollars. When it cannot compare a page, for example because the page shows no brand, the panel says why. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - PromoIQ does nothing on a page and sends nothing until you click its icon. Then it reads only that page. - No account and no sign-in. - To find codes, it sends the store's web domain (for example target.com). On a product page it also sends the product details listed above, to compare prices. It never sends the page's web address, cookies, your cart or its total, or anything you type. - Code lookups and price checks carry no ID or account. - "Share which codes worked" is off unless you turn it on. When on, it sends the store's web domain and, for each code found for this store that it tried, the code, whether it worked, and a rough savings range. Never a code you entered yourself. - "Send daily anonymous counts" is on by default. It sends seven numbers for each day you use PromoIQ (such as how many codes were shown and how many worked), plus the date, the PromoIQ version and whether it is the store version. No ID, web addresses, store names or product names. Turn it off in Settings; that also deletes counts not yet sent. - The panel's "What PromoIQ sent for this check" lists exactly what each check sent. In this listing's privacy section, the store domain counts as web history, the product details as website content, and the daily counts as user activity. NO AFFILIATE LINKS PromoIQ earns nothing from what you buy. Every link goes straight to the store's own product page, offers are sorted by total price only, and it never adds, changes or removes a referral on any link. Some codes PromoIQ finds online are creator or partner codes; the store may credit the person who shared them. PromoIQ earns nothing from any code, tries codes only when you press "Try these codes for me", and never replaces a code you applied unless one saves more. PERMISSIONS - activeTab and scripting: read the tab you click PromoIQ on and, when you ask, try codes in that store's code box. - storage: keep on your device your two settings, any daily counts not yet sent, sho…
