Guidelines on Sharing Offers, Vouchers & Freebies
Sharing offers, vouchers & freebies with our community helps all of us and we highly encourage you to do it. To maintain a high quality of offers, vouchers & freebies on Offercry.com, we ask that you follow the below guidelines.
Quality – Please aim to add value when sharing offers, vouchers & freebies with our community. This is very subjective, but we suggest you think about the following:
- If I saw this offer posted by someone else, would I be interested in it?
- Is it a good value? If I purchased it, would I be smiling?
- Is this freebie really of value?
Accuracy – When sharing offers, vouchers or freebies, please ensure you keep them accurate. At the time of sharing, the title, price/voucher code/P&P cost and description should be as accurate as possible. If you find that an offer, voucher or freebie has since expired or the price/content is now incorrect, please update it (or report it and we can take a look).
Originality – Please refrain from sharing the same offers, vouchers or freebies that have already been shared by a fellow member of our community. This includes avoiding posting the same offer, voucher or freebie, but for different variants (e.g., avoid posting twice for the same offer on a shirt, in red and blue colour). To help you verify this, our website tools (sort by retailer, offer types etc) are available to use. However, if you’re unsure, please Contact Us, or post it and we’ll sort it out for you.
- If you find that the offer, voucher or freebie you’re planning to share has already been posted by someone else, please help verify that their post is still accurate. If there is an issue with it, please report it and we’ll review it.
- If the original offer, voucher or freebie posted was updated more than 1 month ago, and there has been a significant change to it (price, content etc), please feel free to post a new version and report the old one for us to review.
- You are however welcome to post offers, vouchers or freebies on individual products if someone has posted a broader content of the same type (e.g., if someone posts an offer for 20% off all clothing from a retailer, you can post a separate offer for 20% off oxford shirts from the same retailer)
Disallowed – The following offers, vouchers or freebies are not allowed to be shared on Offercry.com.
- Anything self-promotional and/or content that seeks to advertise your own products/services
- Anything against the law or which promotes violence
- Anything of a pornographic nature/adult content
- Anything that infringes on copyrighted content
- Anything seeking to crowdfund
- Anything leading to an unsafe or malicious website
Additionally, in order to protect and safeguard our community members, all new content is swiftly moderated ahead of appearing for everyone to see. As part of these checks, we may slightly amend the content of the offer, voucher or freebie, or reject it if it fails to meet our guidelines. If a post is rejected, we will aim to inform you of the reason so you’re aware of it next time.
Please note that we may remove any offers, vouchers or freebies that do not adhere to these guidelines (especially disallowed ones), and depending on the seriousness, we may temporarily or permanently remove the member’s ability to share content or suspend their account.
