A coupon code is only useful if you can trust where it came from. Here is exactly how CampaignCache sources, dates, and attributes every deal — and what we do to protect the privacy of the inbox each email arrived in.
Every code has a dated, screenshotted source
We subscribe to brands' own newsletters. When an email arrives, we archive it permanently and take a screenshot of the original. Any coupon code we surface is pulled from that specific email — so each deal links back to a real campaign with a real send date. We never invent codes or scrape them from anonymous sources.
We attribute the offer to the real merchant
Curator newsletters (think Morning Brew, theSkimm, TLDR) frequently advertise othercompanies' promotions. When a code belongs to an advertised brand rather than the sender, we attribute it to the actual store. That means a deal shows up under the brand you can actually redeem it with — not the newsletter that happened to mention it.
We show freshness, not false guarantees
Codes expire and brands rotate them constantly. Rather than claim a code is guaranteed live, we show the date of the email it came from so you can judge for yourself. Automatic extraction is not perfect, so we treat the archive as a dated, evidence-backed record — and re-verify as it grows — rather than a promise that every code works this minute.
We strip tracking and personal data before publishing
Before any email goes into the public archive, we:
- remove tracking pixels and beacons;
- strip recipient identifiers out of every link, so the address the email was sent to can't be recovered;
- delete personal data and email addresses from the body;
- disable unsubscribe and preference links.
The published copy carries no individual's identity. See our Privacy Policy and Affiliate Disclosure for the full detail.
Frequently asked
- Are the coupon codes on CampaignCache real?
- Every code comes from a real marketing email we received and archived. We don't write codes ourselves or scrape them from random sites — each one is tied to the specific, dated email a brand actually sent, which we screenshot and store so you can see the source.
- How do I know a code is still current?
- Each deal shows the date of the email it came from, so you can judge freshness yourself. Codes expire and brands rotate them, so we show provenance rather than claiming a code is guaranteed live. Newer is better, and most brands cycle back to a similar offer within weeks.
- Why do you show codes from newsletters like Morning Brew or theSkimm?
- Curator newsletters often advertise other companies' offers. When that happens we attribute the code to the real merchant being advertised — not to the newsletter that sent it — so the deal shows up under the correct store.
- Do you track me or store my personal data?
- No. Before publishing any email we strip tracking pixels, remove recipient identifiers from links, delete personal data, and disable unsubscribe links. The archived copy carries no individual's identity, and we add no tracking of our own beyond basic, privacy-respecting analytics.
- How is this different from sites like RetailMeNot or Honey?
- Those sites rely largely on user-submitted codes of unknown origin. CampaignCache only publishes codes that came from a brand's own dated email, which we archive and screenshot — so every deal has a verifiable source rather than an anonymous submission.
