We use an advanced data processing system that strictly follows our core value of saving users money from trusted sources. We regularly refine this system to offer the best possible user experience.

Sources

We source coupon codes primarily from official brand and retailer websites, supplemented by direct marketing, social media and affiliate networks. Our affiliate partnerships grant exclusive discounts to our users.

Additionally, user submissions provide another source of coupons for our platform.

Our engineering team developed an auto-verification system to speed up the verification process and integrate it into our browser extension. 83% of verified valid codes did save users money.

Each coupon's details, like usage terms and expiration dates, are reviewed by our editorial team and categorized for ease of selection. These optimizations are unbiased. Our goal is to assist more users in saving money.

Ranking and Display

Verified coupons are categorized into two sections on our website: normal and expired. Despite some codes appearing expired, they might still work, so we feature them to offer more savings possibilities.

In the normal section, coupons are sorted by verification time, discount amount, and usage restrictions. We update coupons daily to enhance customer experience.

For brands with few promotions, we suggest popular alternatives at the bottom of the page. Our sorting and recommendations prioritize user experience over commission interests.
