How We Verify Offers

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 recorded review date. “Reviewed” means we reviewed the invitation, published details and available evidence that month. A review can identify missing information or an inaccessible app campaign. Earlier offer confirmations and scoped checkout observations retain their original dates; a review is not a claim that every condition or payment has been tested.
• Link checks and offer checks are separate. Opening a URL only checks whether it responds. An offer check reviews the reward and main conditions against terms or an account dashboard; it does not mean we completed a sign-up or received a reward. Where we have completed a redemption test, we describe that separately.
• Most links use a stable address. We can update the destination behind referral-links.uk/r/ … when a partner rotates a link. Some offers link directly to the provider. A stable address cannot guarantee that the provider still honours an offer.

How often we re-check

We review the offer inventory each calendar month. Date-based campaigns retain their actual deadlines; changes to usage-limited invitations follow the owner's confirmed rotation. Review dates advance after a recorded review, rather than automatically when the calendar changes. The 56-day display backstop still marks an old review for follow-up, even without a rebuild.

When a bonus ends or is unconfirmed, we retain the page with a dated notice. Its link or code may still work and may still track, but may also fail or provide no bonus. Check the provider’s displayed offer before completing any qualifying purchase or transfer.

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.
