Review Summary
Users appreciate Datacy's reliable payouts, ease of use, and responsive customer service, highlighting it as a set-and-forget passive earning tool compatible with multiple browsers. However, many find the earnings very slow to accrue, requiring patience to reach the $30 payout minimum. Some report technical issues with login and withdrawals, limited earning avenues, and concerns about data privacy and security. Overall, while it successfully pays, the extension demands user patience and attention to privacy considerations.
Pros
- Pays out reliably via PayPal and direct deposit when the $30 threshold is reached
- Runs quietly in the background with minimal interference to browsing experience
- Simple to install and use: set it up and earn money passively
- Responsive and helpful customer service via email and Discord
- Works across different browsers, not just Chrome
Cons
- Earnings accumulate very slowly; takes months to reach payout threshold
- Limited earning opportunities, with little variety in how to increase earnings
- Occasional login and withdrawal issues reported, especially with PayPal
- Some users feel the payout amount does not justify the data privacy trade-off
- Lack of clear options for data removal and concerns about potential security risks
