The Hoopla Shopping Browser Extension Q&A

You’ve probably heard the term Browser Extension from your friends, family or maybe some overzealous acquaintance. And you’ve probably nodded your head like you knew what it was even though you weren’t completely sure. That’s fine. Because today you are finally going to understand what a Browser Extension or Browser Plugin is and why it’s super simple and super smart to use one. The new Hoopla Extension is the best browser extension for shopping.  


Okay, so why exactly do I want a browser extension?

If you’ve landed here, you are no doubt the type of person who wants to shop smarter online. It’s like a sport, if you don’t get the best deal on anything you purchase on the internet then basically you finish in 2nd place. Which is completely unacceptable when you can be a shopping champion every day. You want to shop like Lebron or Mahomes! So, why do you want a browser extension??? Quite simply, so you can be 100% certain that you are getting the best deal, coupon code, or promo code possible across the internet. When you click complete purchase and when that package arrives at your doorstep, you want that confidence and assurance that you did everything in your power to get it for the best price. Sure, anyone can spend hours and hours looking at every ecommerce website and under every digital stone to lock down the best deals, but this brings us to the other part of the Why. You don’t want to do all that work, your time is valuable and it’s exhausting… and, wink wink, you don’t have to know you get the best deal every minute of every day. So if that sounds like you, then read on.

What is the Hoopla browser extension?

The Hoopla browser extension is awesome. Good, got that out of the way. Now for more pertinent information: The Hoopla browser extension is the easiest way to save money when shopping online. Our extension searches the web for all active coupons, promo codes, and cash back offers, all in the background while you continue to shop like you normally would. If we find a deal across any of our 6000 brands, an active coupon code that’s ready to go, or an opportunity for cash back, then our browser extension will fly out in the top right of the webpage you are on. Nothing too distracting, but enough of a presence so you know for sure that there is an amazing deal to be had. If you like the deal, you can activate it with just the push of a button and it will confirm that you’ve locked in the deal PLUS give you other opportunities to save so you can stack up those deals. If you don’t like the deal, you simply just click the x on the fly out and you can get back to unencumbered shopping (even though we know you’d never do that!). The Hoopla browser extension is 100% free and is guaranteed to save you time while bringing you the best current deal (that’s right, no expired coupon codes!) available with your favorite brands. We consistently have over 50,000 active deals that we’re tracking, so chances are very good that we will have a deal at the stores you like to shop.


That’s cool, but how do I get the Hoopla browser extension?

Let me guess, you are rolling your eyes and thinking what kind of hoops am I going to have to jump through and who do I have to talk to in customer service? No hoops, no conversation, you barely have to lift a finger. You can add our browser extension to your computer in seconds. Like real seconds, not the fake seconds like when credit cards ask you to qualify. First, download the browser extension by visiting the webstore on your browser across Chrome, Safari (coming soon!), Firefox (coming soon!) and Microsoft Edge (coming soon!). Just search Hoopla Shopping Extension, click BLANK, Once you complete the free download, you can just shop as you normally would and a fly out in the top left will alert you to savings. Or, if you’re really feeling savvy, you can pin our extension to your browser’s toolbar so you’ll see the percentage cash back on every page you shop without the fly out. Easy peasy savings squeezy. 

How do I use the Hoopla browser extension to save money?

Our extension is fast, free, and super easy to use. Once you’ve downloaded it to your web browser, simply click on it and log in to your Hoopla account (if you aren’t already logged in). You now have active coupons, deals, and cash back offers at every corner of the internet - like your own little savings baby Yoda that will magically show you the way to save before you even have to ask the question. That’s right… the Savings Force. When you’re shopping on one of our 6000 brand partner websites (like Nike, Bass Pro Shops, Walmart, Macy’s, you name it), the extension will fly out and alert you about all active and available deals. You hit a button, we hit you with super savings. By activating any deal, you will automatically get cash back. Now you’re getting paid to press buttons! If you click on any coupon code or deal, you will be taken to that page to shop and save. If that isn’t easy enough, the Hoopla browser extension has something called Automatic Coupon Codes. Which means when you are at checkout, if there are any available coupons that you may have glossed over, we will automatically test all the codes and apply the best one that gives you the most savings. Then let you know how much you saved. You thought we were kidding about Yoda.
