How this page is built
A look at the words that keep turning up inside real promo codes, taken from live listings across 1,000+ stores.
We collect the codes
Active codes get pulled from 1,000+ stores daily, each tagged with the store, the discount, and whether shoppers have confirmed it works.
We group them by word
Codes are scanned for the usual suspects: SAVE, FREE, WELCOME, SALE, NEW. A code lands in one group only, so nothing is counted twice.
You dig through the results
Every card carries the code count, store count, average discount and verification rate. Open one to see the stores and code variants inside it.
Questions about this data
What the numbers mean and where they come from.
They come out of our own database, which pulls from merchant feeds, affiliate networks and shopper submissions every day. Only live codes with a discount we can read are counted here.
The share of codes in that group shoppers have confirmed working at checkout. Higher means a better chance the code holds up when you try it. Anything at 70% or above gets a Trusted label.
It rebuilds daily. Codes get added, expired ones drop out, and the figures move with them. Each card carries the date it was last recalculated.
Not from here. This page is about patterns rather than individual offers. Open a group to see which stores use that word, then go to a store page for codes you can actually use.
SAVE and FREE turn up almost everywhere, so those groups are huge by default. Narrower words like WELCOME or VIP appear in fewer stores but often carry a bigger discount, since they target new or returning customers.
