Why some links have an *

When you click a link with an * and sign up, I get paid a small commission from the provider — usually a few pounds, sometimes more. That's how Scrimpr stays free and how I pay for the time I put into it.

Worth knowing:

• It doesn't affect what I recommend. Plenty of platforms I rate highly don't pay me anything. The order is what I'd tell my mum.
• You don't pay anything extra. Many of the * links unlock a sign-up bonus you wouldn't get going direct.
• If you'd rather not use my link, just search the platform name yourself — same product, same price, just no commission for me. No hard feelings.
• When a competitor's link gives you a better bonus than mine, I'll tell you. Look for the “Better bonus elsewhere” callouts — I get nothing if you take those, and you should.

How this tool is funded

Different sites pay wildly different amounts for the same thing — one might pay £10 cashback whilst another pays £15. I like to make the most of things, and I got tired of opening ten apps to compare every time. So I built these tools. They check 30+ sites each day and show you which one is paying the most.

The links in this tool are refer-a-friend links — the same referral mechanic any user gets when they share their own code. When you sign up through one, the platform pays Scrimpr a small referral bonus, the same as if a friend had referred you. That's what keeps the tool free.

Worth knowing:

• Ranking of each site is by what the platform pays YOU. Whether Scrimpr earns a referral bonus doesn't affect the order — it's purely the user payout.
• I do highlight certain offers, which are usually ones I have taken part in myself.
• Your rewards are the same whether you use my links or not, but many of my links unlock a sign-up bonus you wouldn't get going direct.
• Don't want to use my link? Just search the platform name yourself. You will get access to the exact same offers shown here. No hard feelings.
