How We Verify Offers

Referral deals change constantly — bonuses move, codes expire, programmes pause. This page explains exactly how we keep the offers on this site accurate, how the site makes money, and how to tell us if something is out of date. No marketing spin — just the process.

How we check each offer

  • We use or monitor the services ourselves. Where we can, we have opened the account, claimed the bonus, and seen the flow first-hand. Our deal copy reflects what actually happens, including the friction (deposits, qualifying spend, waiting periods).
  • We check the offer against the provider's own terms. The reward amount, eligibility and qualifying conditions are read off each provider's current published T&Cs — not copied from other deal sites.
  • Every deal page shows its real check status. A green status reflects the stored date when we last confirmed the offer and its main conditions. If that date is missing or more than eight weeks old, the page automatically changes to “Verification due” or “Recheck due” instead of continuing to present the offer as current.
  • Our links are stable. Each referral runs through a permanent referral-links.uk/r/ … address that we re-point when a partner rotates a code, so a link you find here (or that an AI assistant cites) does not silently break.

How often we re-check

Every offer on the site carries a built-in expiry tracker. Date-based promotions are flagged before their end date; usage-limited links are rotated when they run out; and offers with no fixed end are re-confirmed on a rolling basis. A site-wide eight-week backstop means no deal can keep displaying a current verification status indefinitely: after 56 days it is visibly marked for rechecking, even if the site has not been rebuilt.

When a programme ends entirely, we do not delete the page. We mark it clearly as paused and point you to the closest working alternative, so you are never sent to a dead link.

How the site is funded

When you use one of our links and sign up, we usually earn a referral tip or affiliate commission — at no extra cost to you. That is what keeps the site running. Two things we hold ourselves to:

  • We don't take payment for placement. No brand pays us to be featured, ranked higher, or described more favourably. A deal is here because we think it is genuinely worth using.
  • One-sided offers are disclosed and split. Where an offer only pays the referrer, we say so plainly and explain our 50/50 fair-share policy on the relevant page.

The sources we cite

For priority deals and guides involving regulated or frequently changing facts — such as FSCS protection, fees, interest rates or qualifying conditions — we use the provider's terms or another primary source and record when the claim was checked. Volatile comparisons are rechecked more often than low-volume, indefinite offers.

Spotted something out of date?

Offers change faster than any single person can watch. If a code has stopped working, a bonus amount looks wrong, or a link is broken, please tell us — we fix verified problems quickly. Accuracy matters more to us than keeping a dead deal live.
