Got to add a new list of companies that will not let you promote using a voucher site at all
Ultimate Finish
Outdoor Megastore
The Alcohol-Free Shop
Yes Asia will no longer allow affiliates who run discount voucher/coupon sites to promote the program. Please note that if you are a content site which also lists vouchers or a cashback site then this will not affect you, only those sites which are focused mainly or exclusively on vouchers.
Another list of companies not accepting incentives or cashback sites (I need help with this one)
John Lewis
Another list of companies that do not allow 'click here to reveal codes' systems
Alpha Rooms
Shade Station - (no click to reveal - all vouchers must be visible and in date)
Thomas Cook
Dial-a phone (unless you have been issued a voucher)
I do, but I also have a button where users can submit codes and new websites, so I need to see if they can go on my site or if the company has a blanket ban I have to delete them.
NEXT are another to add to the list. The provide a FREE DELIVERY CODE with every release of a new directory which often finds it way on to discount code websites. You need to remove these straight away too.
