What is Spend Less?
Spend Less is a Chrome extension that detects when you're on a seller's website and delivers messages to make you aware of sales funnels and marketing hacks. It allows you to dismiss the messages if you want to continue on the website, or it redirects you to a beautiful and interesting place if you realize you're being trapped in a sales funnel.

Summary

Billions of dollars and centuries of time have been spent learning about what makes people want things. Digital marketing experts have distilled principles of psychology, neuroscience, and computer science into "marketing hacks" that push you into "frictionless sales funnels." To sellers, you're just a "click" to "convert" into a purchase.

Spend Less helps you escape the sales funnels and keep your money. How?

  • Spend Less detects when you're on a seller's website.

  • Spend Less delivers beautiful, motivational, and informative messages that help you become more aware of the sales funnel and marketing hacks being used on you.

  • If the website is where you want to be, simply dismiss the message and Spend Less won't interrupt you again during your session on the website.

  • If you've realized you've been sucked into just another sales funnel though, Spend Less will send you somewhere beautiful and interesting instead (where nobody is trying to take your money).

Whether you want to Spend Less because you're trying to save, reduce your impact on the environment, or simply to become mindful of the "marketing hacks" sellers use on you, Spend Less will help you pause and think.

We invite you to join our growing community of people who have made the decision to Spend Less.

Solid execution of a great idea. Legitimately helpful in reducing my online spending, but with nice features to make it unobtrusive.
