en They didn't get me cashback for my order from HP. This extension does not work every time. No correction from them. Unfortunately, it works as advertise only with some stores. Some cashbacks will newer add to your account.

used to work great but if you have any kind of adblock, it doesn't even when whitelisting

It doesn't fully work as you'd expect. The seller you buy from must be IN THE Rakuten button program to even give us our percent back. Otherwise just stick to using the Rakuten page as a portal to login to your shopping sites. Customer service is a pain to deal with as not all online orders send us confirmation emails. I am a BIG shopper on the AliExpress site where I am a Diamond member. I shop for stuff as little as 1¢ to as much as $1500. The most annoying thing about the Rakuten program is they use the USD number value to calculate CDN incentives. But they don't give it back to us in the equivalent. Example is AliExpress is a 2.75% refund site. If I buy a $100 CDN item, they won't give me back $2.75. They convert the number into a USD number ($72.85) and calculate it from a USD amount. So I'll only get $2.00 instead of $2.75. Which may not seem like much but remember I said I bought items as much as $1500. Twice infact a 60v 2000W eBike and a 60v 5000W eScooter. Both times I had to fight customer service and wait upto 6 months to get the $30+ for each purchase put into my account. Technically I'm still waiting to get the $$ for the eScooter. They were suppose to give it to me in my February payout but because of this pending battle, they pushed it to the May payout instead. The sellers must be IN THE Rakuten program and must acknowledge the sale before we get the promised refunds. The two sellers I bought the eBike and eScooter from. Both were not part of the button program and both did not acknowledge the sale. I bought the eBike in 2021 and it took til 2022 to get the Rakuten refund put into my account. The eScooter I bought last year summer and I'm still waiting to get it in my account.

Extension is handy but I really wish it had a whitelist option so that one can tell the button to not activate on some sites. Every time I visit my bank the button blinks and flashes and has the popup - it is not relevant! But there is no way to avoid it. I also wish you could disable the popup entirely and only have the blink, I will click it if I care, I don't want the popup.
