If at any point you feel something is missing or a new question comes to mind, don’t hesitate to share it in the comments. Together, we can make this FAQ a more helpful resource for everyone.

Premium features

Independent projects thrive on the people who stand behind them. Premium features were created as a thank-you to those supporters, offering not just appreciation, but also a chance to enjoy something more.

What’s included in the Premium?

Some features are limited or unavailable to regular accounts. For example, price and promo code history are accessible only for the past three months by default. With Premium, these boundaries disappear. It unlocks the full depth of the platform and expands what you can do:

  • Track an unlimited number of products effortlessly (10 by default).
  • Compare products to find the best shopping cart combinations for maximum savings.
  • Access detailed price history for any time period.
  • Access the complete promo code history for any time period.
  • Get notified instantly about new promo codes.
  • Enjoy an ad-free experience — forever.

How does it work?

Premium is available through Buy Me a Coffee. Think of it as a small way to support this independent project — like treating me to a coffee each month — while unlocking all the extra features on the site.

Once you subscribe on Buy Me a Coffee, your membership is automatically synchronized with my service. From there, your account is upgraded to Premium without any extra effort on your side.

It’s a monthly subscription, and as long as you stay a supporter, you’ll continue enjoying all the Premium benefits.

How much does it cost?

Premium is designed to stay simple and affordable. A monthly subscription costs $5, while a yearly plan is $55 — giving you the value of one month for free.

To make sure Premium feels right for you, there’s also a 7-day free trial with full access to all features. No limitations, no hidden catches — just a chance to explore everything before you decide.

How to subscribe?

Getting Premium is quick and straightforward:

  1. Log in to your account and go to your personal profile.
  2. If you haven’t used the free trial yet, you can start with the 7-day trial and explore all Premium features at no cost.
  3. Otherwise, simply subscribe via Buy Me a Coffee.
  4. Once the payment is confirmed, your Premium access will be activated automatically.

Please note.

To link your personal spybenny account with your buymeacoffee account, please use the same email address for both. Even if you sign up for membership first and only create your spybenny account later, the accounts will still be connected automatically.

How to format your comment?

You can use a simple markdown-like syntax when writing comments. It helps to add formatting such as bold, italics, links, or inline code to make your text clearer.

Below you’ll find a minimal set of supported rules. This is not full Markdown — only a lightweight subset designed for comments. The rules look like this:

***text*** ⇒ bold + italic
**text** ⇒ bold
*text* ⇒ italic
+text+ ⇒ underline
`text` ⇒ highlight
~text~ ⇒ escape
[desc](url) ⇒ link
>text ⇒ quote

Note: You can use _ instead of *, but be consistent — use either all * or all _.

Examples

  • ***super text*** looks bold and italic
  • **important** word is bold
  • *emphasized* word is italic
  • ~*not parsed as italic*~
  • Visit [Google](https://google.com)

How it looks after rendering:

  • super text looks bold and italic
  • important word is bold
  • emphasized word is italic
  • *not parsed as italic*
  • Visit Google
