User Reviews

Users appreciate the Rakuten Button Canada's ability to help save money through easy cashback activation and notifications. However, multiple reviews highlight issues such as annoying pop-up notifications, conflicts with ad blockers, high CPU usage, and login loops. Privacy concerns and limited participation from major stores also diminish its usefulness. Overall, while beneficial for cashback savings, technical problems and intrusive behavior reduce user satisfaction.

Pros

Helps users save money by automatically notifying them of cashback offers and coupons.
Simplifies activating cashback with one click, making the cashback process easy and user-friendly.
Saves more money compared to other cashback extensions like Honey for some users.

Cons

Annoying persistent pop-up notifications on websites that cannot be permanently disabled and must be turned off every session.
Compatibility issues with ad blockers like UBlock Origin, causing functionality problems unless specific whitelist actions are taken.
High CPU usage reported when the add-on is enabled, indicating possible performance or background process issues.
Login loop problems since September 2020, where users are repeatedly asked to log in but cannot successfully access cashback features.
Lack of support for certain major stores (e.g., Amazon.ca), making the add-on less useful for some users.
Concerns about privacy and data collection, with some users suspecting the add-on collects browsing data for ad targeting, labeling it as spyware.

totally worth it, five stars

The pop-up on websites in the corner is annoying, and there's no way to deactivate it permanently. You can only turn it off for the current session. This is frustrating on certain types of sites, such as those offering a subscription, because you have to manually deactivate it every time.
