Fact-Checking Policy

Our Commitment to Accuracy

At CouponChaos, we understand that financial decisions—no matter how small—impact your household budget. That is why we are committed to absolute accuracy. Our Fact-Checking Policy ensures that every guide, deal analysis, and saving strategy is fully verified before it is made public.

1. Verification of Promo Codes and Discounts

We manually verify promo codes, discount percentages, and minimum purchase thresholds listed on our website. We test coupon codes on merchant websites to ensure they work at the time of publishing. Because online promotions change rapidly, we also provide strategies to help users troubleshoot expired codes.

2. Primary Source Reliance

When reporting on retailer refund policies, price match guarantees, or reward programs, we rely on the merchant’s official terms of service rather than third-party summaries. We link directly to official guidelines to offer maximum transparency and depth.

3. Technical Accuracy in Personal Finance

Personal finance calculations, budgeting formulas (such as the 50/30/20 rule), interest rates, and retail math are reviewed to ensure mathematical and conceptual accuracy. We write articles with step-by-step logic to make saving easy and transparent.

4. Regular Audits for Outdated Information

The deal space moves quickly. We run routine audits of our popular content to check for policy updates at major retailers (e.g., changes to Amazon, Walmart, or Target return and clearance schedules). Outdated statistics, links, or guidelines are corrected during these audits.
