Best Price Ninja is a misleading piece of software that may try to convince users into believing that it is a reputable and functional tool that can enhance their online shopping experience. According to its authors, Best Price Ninja is the tool that every avid online shopper needs, because it provides them with the ability to compare prices quickly, search for the best deals, find relevant products, and more! Unfortunately, all of these operations are executed poorly by the Best Price Ninja browser extension, and the software is ad-supported. This means that by installing the Best Price Ninja application, users agree to be exposed to a vast number of advertisements that may be injected in practically every website they visit.

The appearance of Best Price Ninja ads can happen suddenly, and many users might have no idea how this occurred. The reason for this is because of Best Price Ninja's primary method of propagation – software bundling. Software bundles are a common way for adware authors to spread their software, and Best Price Ninja's publishers are taking advantage of this trend as well. Their adware might be packed with the installation files of cost-free software like audio/video converters, PDF viewers, and similar freeware. Users might accidentally agree to install Best Price Ninja, or they might fall for the false promises and knowingly agree to have this application installed. If you've made the small mistake and now your web browser is cluttered with Best Price Ninja ads, we advise you to follow our removal instructions on how to get rid of this threat!
