How Gazoobie works
Four steps, no account, no catch. Here is what happens between a retailer posting an offer and you deciding whether it is worth your money.
Gazoobie reads the offers so you do not have to
Thousands of coupons, codes and sales come through every day from retailers and affiliate networks. Every one gets scored on how deep the discount really is, how the price compares to what that item normally sells for, and whether the offer is a genuine event or a permanent "sale" that never ends. Most of them do not survive that.
Tell it how you shop
A gamer and a gift-giver should not see the same front page. Take the two-minute quiz and Gazoobie matches you to one of twelve shopper types, then filters everything to what actually fits. You can also just browse a type directly if you already know which one you are.
Read the picks, not the firehose
Every deal we surface leads with who it is for, plus a short read on why it is worth attention. The Real Deals board is the current best of everything; store pages show what is live at a single retailer; and the blog goes deeper on whether a specific retailer’s sale is actually a good deal.
Click through and use the code
Hitting the deal takes you straight to the retailer. If there is a code, it is shown on the card ready to copy — paste it at checkout. No account, no survey, no waiting for a coupon to unlock.
How we get paid
When you buy something after clicking through Gazoobie, the retailer pays us a small commission. That is the whole model. You pay the same price you would have paid anyway, we do not run ads across the site, and we do not sell your data.
The obvious risk with commission is that it rewards sending you to buy things whether or not the deal is good. That is exactly the incentive we build against: no retailer can pay for placement, and telling you to skip a bad offer is the only thing that makes the recommendations worth reading.

Quick questions
Is Gazoobie free?
Yes, completely. There is no account required, no subscription and no paywall. When you buy through one of our links the retailer pays us a commission, which is what funds the site. You pay the same price you would have paid going direct, and often less if there is a code.
Does using your link cost me anything extra?
No. The commission comes out of the retailer’s margin, not your total. The price at checkout is identical whether you arrive through Gazoobie or type the address in yourself.
A code did not work at checkout. What now?
It happens. Codes expire early, get pulled, or carry restrictions the retailer never published — a minimum spend, certain categories excluded, new customers only. Try another code on the same store page, and tell us through the contact form so we can pull the dead one.
How do you decide which deals are worth showing?
An AI quality score does the first pass across every offer, then the editorial standard decides what earns a verdict. The full method, including what we will not claim without data, is written up on the How We Verify page.
Do retailers pay to be featured?
No. We earn affiliate commission on purchases, but no retailer can pay to be ranked higher, to soften a verdict, or to have a warning removed. Placement is editorial.
Can I suggest a store or report a bad deal?
Please do — reports of broken or misleading offers are the most useful messages we get. Use the contact form and pick the matching topic.
