UPDATE Sept 2024 Owner added a code popup on the same coupon, which I love. It’s extremely fast and works well. Just glad it’s sorted. UPDATE: Bought the pro again, but it’s made my website and the codes even worse than it was. The reveal code does not open, just goes straight to the affiliate link, and if the reveal code does work, it’s extremely slow yet again. Even slower than before. At least 30 seconds before it reveals code. Who is going to wait that long for a bloody code. When I raised these issues weeks ago, I get no response. I believe that he should refund me. I had no issues when this plugin had expired, but wanted to show respect and courtesy so bought the plugin again, but it’s not a very good plugin. I’ve already added over 250 vendors and over 1000 coupons, so its not like I can just delete it. I just want the plugin to work well, and fast. UPDATE: The creator has been very helpful and been trying to please me with the things that I wanted to add, but there are still issues. However, I do love the look of the coupons, and the coupon reveal is opening up a lot faster than it was previously. The plugin creator actually thought that my website was slow, because the click to show was taking about twenty seconds to load, when it is his plugin that is the issue. I provided admin details for them to sort out issues that I had been emailing him about for weeks, but he doesn’t seem to care. Shame that I’ve put so much trust in this plugin and have to stop using now and ‘show code’ instead, to make sure it’s faster access for the user. There is a feature where you can opt to create a page for each coupon, but what is the point of this as it just provides the text and does not send the user to the actual coupon. In order to show the coupon, I had to manually add the shortcode, and this was taking a long time, then there are visual issues with this now which I need to sort out. There are far too many problems with this plugin for it to be sold as a pro version.

I am using this plugin not for coupons, but for other reasons and it fits perfectly. Setup is very easy. I wanted to change the text and filter options, so I decided to contact support. The support team helped me out so well. The coupon site looks amazing and just like I wanted now. Highly recommend!
