Why does Getprice offer coupons?
At Getprice, we’re committed to giving our readers the best deals and the lowest prices. That’s why coupon codes were the next logical step for us. For nearly 20 years, Getprice has been Australia’s leading online comparison shopping site, and we’re committed to putting information and knowledge in your hands.
With millions of products from hundreds of retailers, we want to make sure the thousands of people who visit our website monthly are making the most of their money, and making the best buying decisions.
How does Getprice source our coupons?
We source and write all coupon codes and surrounding content ourselves, from a list of retailers that we recommend and trust, without any third-party involvement.
As part of Future PLC, we use a central eCommerce platform called Hawk which allows us to easily list coupon codes, deals and sales. A team of dedicated deal experts then curates and writes the coupon content for our readers to use, working with the wider Getprice team to ensure the retailers we offer coupon codes for are retailers that we stand by and recommend.
Our deal experts curate, test and write our coupon codes, while our editors research and produce money-saving content to accompany these discounts. Our team of commercial account managers simultaneously work with affiliate networks and retailers to make sure we’ve got a heads-up on future coupon codes and deals.
We bolster our coupon code offerings by doing this the old-fashioned way. Our deal experts scour retailer pages, competitor websites and newsletters for coupon codes to test and verify. That way, you can get all working discount codes in one convenient place.

Why trust Getprice?
As Australia’s leading online comparison shopping site, we've always been committed to saving our audience money. With nearly two decades of experience, we compare prices for millions of products from hundreds of retailers. That means we have a pretty good idea of what’s on offer and what makes a good deal.
It’s precisely because of our experience and expertise in shopping and saving money that we source, test and write our coupon codes and the surrounding content ourselves, without any third parties getting involved at any stage.
With tens of thousands of people coming to Getprice looking to save money every month, we hold ourselves to the high standards they've come to expect with our coupon code offerings. And we’ll always disclose when we can earn a commission through one of our links.
How do we make money?
When you use a coupon code or deal from Getprice, we may earn a commission from the retailer if you go on to purchase something.
We update our coupon codes daily. To do this we have a team of deal experts, editors, commercial account managers and developers who need to be paid fairly for their work.
When a member of our audience finds a deal or coupon code they’d like to use and clicks on it, they’ll be taken to the retailer's website. Once this happens, a cookie will be dropped that lets the retailer know that the user is coming from Getprice. If that user then goes on to purchase something, we may get a commission from the retailer. The size of the commission depends on the retailer, and our relationship with them.
We have some in-depth terms and conditions explaining how our parent company, Future PLC makes money across its many publications and sites. Find out more about Future PLC.
How do we test coupons?
With coupon codes, we want our audience to get the same great experience they’ve come to expect from comparing prices on Getprice, so we make sure those codes work. This means having real people test them.
A member of the team will head to a retailer's website, fill their basket with products that are included in the terms and conditions of the offer, and apply the code at checkout. If it works, we add it to our coupon code page for the relevant retailer. If it doesn’t, we move on to the next code.
Occasionally, brands will reserve the right to discontinue a coupon code without letting us know, and in these cases, we’ll try to remove the coupon code as soon as possible. We don’t add user-specific discounts, because they’ll likely not work once an individual has used them. We exclusively add one-time-use codes that are uniquely generated for our own users. To avoid non-working codes, we don’t add one-time-use codes found anywhere else.
What if a coupon doesn’t work?
Firstly, we recommend that you check the terms and conditions of the coupon code. These are found under the offer title on a retailer’s coupon code page. It’s important to check whether you’ve met a minimum spend threshold, the items you’ve selected aren’t excluded from the offer and that you don’t need verification (this typically only impacts student, military and health worker discounts).
