About us

About us

GottaOffer helps shoppers save money with voucher codes and deals that have been checked, from the stores they already shop at.

Coupon sites are full of codes that expired months ago or never worked at all. We started GottaOffer to fix that: a place where every code has been looked at by a person, shows its conditions up front, and comes down when it stops working.

What we do

• Codes and deals from 12 countries, each site with its own local stores, currencies and offers.
• Checked before they go live, with the minimum spend, exclusions and end date written under each one.
• Rated by shoppers, so you can see which codes worked for others before you try one.
• Shopping guides on our blog, written by our editors, on how to get the most out of the stores and sales you care about.

Free for you, always

Using GottaOffer costs nothing and you never need an account. Some stores pay us a small commission when you buy through our links; it never changes your price or which codes we show.

Below is exactly how we check every code. If you have a question, a code to share or want to work with us, get in touch.

How we verify

Every code on this site is checked before it goes live, rated by the shoppers who use it, and taken down when it stops working. Here is what happens to a code from the day we find it, and what the labels on it mean.

1. Where our codes come from

Our offers team collects codes and deals every day from:

• the stores' affiliate programmes, through networks such as Awin, Impact, CJ and Involve Asia, which send us the codes stores release for sites like ours;
• the stores' own websites, newsletters and social media accounts;
• shoppers who send us a code through our contact page.

2. What we check before a code is published

• The store: the code belongs to the store and country it is listed under, and the link goes to that store.
• The conditions: a minimum spend, new customers only, excluded brands or sale items are written under the code, so you know before you try it.
• The dates: every offer has an end date. Offers that have not started yet stay hidden until their start date.
• No duplicates: a code that is already live for the store is not listed twice.

An editor reviews offers before they are published. Offers from a few networks we trust can be published automatically, but only when they pass the same checks; anything that does not waits for an editor.

3. Shoppers tell us whether it worked

Every code has a Did it work? button. We count one answer a day per code from each connection, and only answers from the last 90 days.

• "N% success" appears once at least 3 shoppers have answered.
• "Shoppers say this code may have stopped working" appears when at least 3 shoppers, and at least half of everyone who answered, say it failed. The code moves to the bottom of the list, and we suggest the store's other codes instead.
• "Used successfully N times this week" means the store confirmed at least 2 orders placed through that offer in the last 7 days. Orders the store declined are not counted.

4. What we do when a code stops working

Codes that shoppers report as failing go onto our editors' work list. An editor tries the code again: if it works, the earlier reports stop counting; if it does not, the offer is ended and moves to the store's expired offers.

5. We check the links too

Every store and offer link is visited automatically about once a day, the way a browser would, to catch pages that no longer exist. A link that fails two checks in a row is flagged for an editor to fix.

6. Expired offers

When an offer reaches its end date, it moves to the store's expired list and is shown greyed out. Stores sometimes keep old codes running, so you can still try one, but we cannot promise it works.

How we make money

Some stores pay us a commission when you buy through our links. It never changes your price, and it does not decide which codes we list or whether a code is marked as working. Our affiliate disclosure has the details.

Found a code that does not work?

Answer No under Did it work?, or contact us with the store and the code, and we will check it.
