How We Verify Every Coupon Code for UK Deals
Most coupon sites say “verified” without explaining what that means. Here’s what verification means on CodeBuddy:
- We test the code manually. A member of our team places the code into the retailer’s actual checkout before it goes live on the site.
- Shoppers flag failures in real time. Every deal page has a “Did the Coupon Work?” button. When enough “No” votes come in, the code is pulled for re-checking, usually within 48 hours.
- We re-check on a schedule. Codes are re-tested at least every 2 weeks because retailers can deactivate codes without warning.
- Expired codes come down. If a code fails re-testing, it is removed or relabelled rather than being left live simply to generate clicks.
This is a manual process backed by user reports, not a fully automated scrape. It’s slower, but it helps ensure that the discount codes that stay on CodeBuddy tend to actually work.
How CodeBuddy Makes Money
CodeBuddy is free for shoppers. We earn a small commission from some retailers when you click through and make a purchase, at no extra cost to you, through affiliate partnerships, including the Admitad network.
This is how the site stays free. The commission does not decide which deals we list or how we rank them. A retailer paying a higher commission does not get better placement than a retailer paying less.
If that ever changes, we’ll say so here, because a coupon site for UK deals that hides how it’s paid isn’t one you should trust.
What You Won’t Get From Us
- We won’t ask you to sign up to see a code.
- We won’t sell your email to third parties.
- We won’t leave an expired code live just because it still gets clicks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CodeBuddy free to use?
Yes. Browsing deals, viewing UK deal codes, and using them at checkout costs nothing. There is no membership fee and no paywall.
Is CodeBuddy legit for the best UK deals?
CodeBuddy is a UK-registered business that lists affiliate discount codes for real UK retailer deals. We disclose our affiliate relationships, and every code is manually tested before publishing. We don’t process payments or hold your card details; you always check out directly on the retailer’s own website.
How does CodeBuddy make money if it’s free?
Through affiliate commission. When you click a coupon code and buy something, the retailer may pay us a small referral fee. It costs you nothing extra.
What do I do if a code doesn’t work?
Click “No” on the “Did the Coupon Work?” button on that deal’s page. That flags it for re-testing. Retailers often cap codes by usage or expiry date without notice, so a code can become inactive between checks.
Do I need to create an account?
No. Signing up only unlocks the newsletter and saves the best UK deals. Every affiliate-based code and discount deal is visible and usable without an account.
