Why we built TriedCodes
Most coupon sites list every code they can find. You copy one, paste it at checkout, and it doesn't work. Then the next one doesn't either. The codes look the same whether they worked yesterday or expired last year.
We wanted a site that shows proof: which codes worked in real orders, where each code came from, and what the fine print says, so you can pick the right one the first time.
What makes us different
What we do
- Show which codes worked in real orders, once a store's affiliate program is live
- Label where every code came from
- Say so when no code works, and show the next best way to save
- Check shipping, returns and discounts on each store's own site, with the date we checked
- Keep pages fast, with no pop-ups
What we never do
- Invent codes or "100% verified" badges
- Hide the fine print
- Use browser extensions that swap codes at checkout
- Bid on store names in search ads
- Let commissions decide which codes come first
How we confirm codes
When you use a code from our site, the store reports the order to its affiliate network, usually with the code that was entered. We match that report back to the code you picked. Codes that keep working rise to the top; codes nobody can use drop down and expire.
Before a store's affiliate program is live, we show only codes and sales the store announced itself, with a link to where we found them. Read the full method.
How we make money
When you buy through a link on our site, the store may pay us a commission. It doesn't change the price you pay. We may also show clearly labeled ads. Neither affects which codes we show or how we rank them. Our affiliate disclosure explains this in full.
Who we are
TriedCodes is owned and run by MediaTech, an independent company based in New South Wales, Australia. Our editors check every store we cover by hand.
What we cover
US stores in three categories: Fashion & Beauty, Outdoor & Fitness and Home & Electronics. You can browse every store A–Z.
