Overview

PauseBuy shows you how many hours you need to work to afford each price as you shop online. You set your income once, and the extension converts product costs into time spent earning it. The idea helps you think twice before clicking buy.

It works quietly in your browser. No tracking and no ads. All calculations happen locally. You see the time cost on sites like Amazon, Walmart, or other stores that list prices.

🔐 Privacy first, no data leaves your browser

This tool is simple yet effective for anyone who wants to spend more mindfully. It respects your time and money without nagging or distracting. It is free to install from the Chrome Web Store and stays lightweight with minimal settings. PauseBuy creates a small pause in your shopping habit by giving you perspective. It nudges behavior gently by letting you see what time cost really means. That reflection helps curb impulse buys and shift spending toward what truly matters.
