Not only did they ban me for providing true and helpful information, but they also banned the merchant whose listing I shared. I am not connected with said merchant, but I know it must've hurt their business. They want kickbacks from businesses whose deals get posted on their site.

Value for money

why are you guys doing commission sharing now, after how many years? and shouldn't points be earned on all post, not only the ones i have to share directly? doesnt make sense tbh. there are commissions for finders fees in industries known for commissions. posting is a type of find for potential/future customers.

During Black Friday 2025 I posted 2 deals on separate days from Walmart. On my 3rd I was banned and accused of self promotion and working for Walmart. I reached out to provide proof. Was cleared, but I will never ever post again. The audacity to make such an assumption was mind blowing.

Staff promoted garbage under the guise of being community sourced. Mods will steal popular deals and delete helpful comments without notice or recourse. Complete ban on reference to outside cashback so they can push their own inferior product. Complete power trip. What used to be a community driven deals page is now a monetized catalog of mostly promoted junk you have to sift through.

There was a deal on the Nintendo switch 2 pokémon bundle, I created the listing and then their staff deleted my listing and created their own which looked exactly like mine. This is a very shady company and I'm not sure what the purpose of their staff doing was since I'm not getting paid for this, just trying to help people save money. This is also the reason I don't have any social media, it seems like people would do stupid stuff like this for clout (likes, points, etc... I regret submitting dozens of deals on here throughout the years (under different accounts). Account deactivated.

They only promote deals where they are getting kickbacks. This site does not follow their own rules as kickback money, not your deal, experience, or the product is what rules Just look at the reviews, 42% are 1 star The mods remove any negative comments about the deal or the product IF it is one they make money off of thus you cannot trust what the community says about a deal or product. Notice the large amount of posts about being banned or threatened with being banned? That is what they do if you post anything negative about what they are pushing. Just mention an electric bike isn't UL approved and they threaten to ban you There are so many other places out there, avoid this one as they don't have your interest at heart, only their wallet

I have found that prices they publish, especially at Amazon are never as low as they say they are. This is a joke and I’ve blocked them.
