What “source checked” means
We keep a source URL with each public offer. Official merchant pages are preferred. If the source is not the merchant, the card labels it clearly so shoppers can judge it.
Plain-English trust policy
How Gil Coupons checks offers
A “source checked” label is not a magic guarantee. It means the offer has a traceable source, a checked date, and enough terms to be useful before a shopper clicks.
What it does not mean
It does not mean every shopper can use the code. Stores can reject a valid offer because of cart contents, account history, address, membership status, app rules, or product exclusions.
How submissions are handled
Member-submitted stores and codes go to the admin panel first. They do not appear publicly until the store, source, terms, and basic safety checks pass review.
What happens after a report
Reports are stored for owner review. A bad listing can be corrected, paused, archived, or rechecked depending on the issue.
Why working-looking codes still fail
Coupon sites get this wrong all the time: a code can be real and still not work for you. That is why Gil Coupons avoids “guaranteed” language. Checkout gets the final say.
- The subtotal may be too low before tax, shipping, and fees.
- The product, brand, size, color, seller, or category may be excluded.
- The offer may be for new customers, app users, members, students, or selected accounts only.
- The store may have changed the promo after the latest listed check.
- No-code deals may require the exact linked sale page instead of a promo box.
Affiliate and outbound links
Some outbound links may be affiliate or tracked links. That does not change the price you see from the store, and it does not let Gil Coupons promise a discount. Always check the merchant checkout total.
