1. What Are Affiliate Links?
When you browse deals or vouchers on drillthedeal and click on links such as Grab Deal or Get Coupon, your browser is safely redirected to the retailer website (such as Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Swiggy, or Ajio).
These links contain a small tracking code known as an affiliate link. This code tells the retailer that you discovered the product through drillthedeal. If you decide to complete an order, the retailer pays us a small percentage of the sale as a referral fee.
2. Does It Cost You Any Extra Money?
No, absolutely not. You will pay the exact same price as any other customer visiting the store directly. The commission comes entirely out of the store marketing budget.
In many cases, using drillthedeal actually saves you money because we find working promo codes, bank card discounts, and limited-time price drops that you might not have known about.
3. Why Do We Use Affiliate Links?
Running a website like drillthedeal requires real time, effort, and resources:
- High-Speed Servers: Keeping the platform fast, secure, and available 24/7 during massive shopping festivals.
- Real Human Testing: Our editors spend hours testing coupon codes in actual checkout carts to ensure they work before posting.
- Active Deal Monitoring: Tracking price drops, lightning deals, and removing expired offers promptly so you do not waste time.
Affiliate partnerships allow us to cover our server hosting, development, and team costs so drillthedeal remains 100% free for all shoppers without annoying paywalls.
4. Our Editorial Independence Promise
Our number one priority is helping you save money. We follow strict editorial guidelines to ensure our recommendations are always honest:
- Deals Come First: We choose deals based on price drops, discount quality, and user demand, never based on commission rates.
- Zero-Commission Deals: If an online store has an incredible price drop but offers zero commission, we still share it because it benefits our readers.
- Community Driven: Members of our community can share deals, upvote good offers, downvote poor deals, and post comments freely.
- No Paid Positive Reviews: We never accept payment to say positive things about a product that does not deserve it.
5. Our Partner Networks & Stores
We work with several established affiliate platforms and direct merchant programs across India, including:
- Amazon India Associates
- Flipkart Affiliate Program
- Cuelinks and EarnKaro Networks
- Impact and Commission Junction (CJ)
- Direct merchant affiliate programs from fashion, electronics, travel, and food delivery brands
6. Price & Stock Disclaimer
Prices and deals on online shopping websites in India can change very quickly. A lightning deal may sell out in minutes, or a retailer may update coupon terms unexpectedly.
While our team works hard to keep every listing fresh and verified, the price and stock level shown on the store checkout page at the time of purchase is always the final price.
