Sample storeA sample store's checkout, as a shopper with a coupon extension sees it. Three pop-ups land in the corners, one over the order summary. The shopper clicks “Try all 8 codes” and the extension types each code into the discount box: two have expired, one isn't valid and five work, among them a VIP-list code, a creator's code and a staff-only code worth $48. It applies the staff code, the $120 order drops to $72 and its cashback link takes the last click: $55.20 gone from one order. Then Benson's code check lists the 7 codes three extensions hold for the store, masked, with how often each is used.

What Benson does
See who's on site
See Honey, Capital One Shopping and Rakuten beside orders, discounts and the last click.
Block with a reason
Set a rule for each extension, then compare revenue per session with shoppers left in a holdout.
Keep your margin
A leaked code takes $10 off a $100 order, then the extension takes commission too. Keep your codes for the right shoppers.
What are coupon extensions costing your store?
They put codes in front of shoppers who never had one, then claim commission on the order. Move the sliders to see what that adds up to at your volume.

Shopify and GA4 can't show you this. Benson measures it on your store.
Assumes 50% of those orders carry a code the extension added, at 15% off, and that it earns 3% commission through your affiliate program.
Your reports show sales and discounts, but not the Honey pop-up beside them. Benson names extensions in real sessions and shows conversion, order value, discount depth and affiliate credit.
Block everything and you could lose useful sales. Leave it alone and you keep paying for late clicks. Set rules by extension, page, country or device, then compare revenue per session with a holdout.
Benson shows what it will load and what remains in your theme.

What merchants ask when margin is tight
“We don't get extension traffic.”
Maybe. Benson will tell you in a day, from your own sessions.
“Discount extensions will always exist, but they'll start to play by the rules. Benson is here to police them, and to help both sides understand the value each one brings.”
Doug SilkstoneFounder, Benson
“Extensions work for us.”
Test them. Keep the ones that earn their commission.
Asked by merchantsAnswered by Benson
“We don't discount.”
Then tell shoppers before checkout, so they stop hunting for codes. Offer your list instead.
