How It Works

Discover amazing flash deals in just a few simple steps

For Buyers

1

Browse Deals

Explore flash deals across different categories - Flash, Local, and National. Each deal shows:

  • Original and discounted prices
  • Real-time stock availability
  • Time remaining on the deal
  • Product/service description
  • Delivery information
2

Click "Go to Store"

When you find a deal you like, click the "Go to Store" button. This will:

  • Open the seller's website in a new tab
  • Show you the coupon code (if applicable) in a popup
  • Provide a direct link to the product
3

Use Coupon Code

Copy the coupon code from the popup and apply it at checkout on the seller's website. The coupon code is:

  • Automatically copied to your clipboard
  • Valid only for the duration of the deal
  • Unique to each deal
4

Complete Purchase

Complete your purchase directly on the seller's website. All transactions happen between you and the seller - we don't process payments.

Important: Always verify product details, pricing, and terms on the seller's website before completing your purchase.
