Question (not an endorsement): Capital One thingy at GOG

What's in your wallet?

I've never gotten this.

I don't know why this offer is on GOG, but according to Reddit, it's a cash back company and you get the $40 90 days after installing their browser extension.

Never happened to me with any of the many Amazone Prime GOG keys I redeemed. And I really can't imagine this is from GOG itself. You might have caught some sort of browser hijack or similar malware and/or maybe you didn't end up on the actual GOG page for some reason.

Capital One does have a rewards program and a coupon program. And it also does have browser pop ups. Which doesn't mean what you're seeing is legit, but those ARE all things Capital One does.

Chris is spot on. For anyone who may not be aware, Capitol One is very big bank in the US, they rolled out this program better part of a decade ago and promote it with some very pricey ads... maybe we can all hate the banking system, but they have some good stuff for little cog in the machine consumers.

That said, for me I skip this browser extension stuff for capitol one; it's not altogether dissimilar to that Honey program... in fact, when I was fact checking Honey's name, apparently Capital One is also a defendant in that class action lawsuit about stealing referral link revenue, according to this YT video I'm just now watching

Thanks, all!
