1. Verify before publishing
Every code must be tested in a real merchant cart by an editor. Screenshots of the applied discount are saved internally as proof of validity at the time of publication.
2. Source transparency
Codes come from three sources: official merchant feeds, affiliate-network publishers, and community submissions. Submission origin is tracked internally but never shown publicly.
3. Independence
No merchant or affiliate network can pay to be ranked higher than another. Featured-deal placement is editorial — based on offer quality, recency, and verified click-through.
4. Removing dead codes
Codes flagged by ≥3 community downvotes within 24 hours are auto-hidden pending re-test. Verified expired codes are removed within 24 hours.
5. Corrections
When we publish incorrect information, we update the page with a clear note explaining what changed and when. Email editor@emilyreview.com to flag any factual error.
