Editorial standards
How we write our guides and reports, where our data comes from, how we use software tools, how we correct mistakes and how we stay independent of the commissions we earn.
Our data
Offer data comes from the feeds of the affiliate networks we work with, synced daily. Every number we publish (live offers, average discounts, stores in a category) is calculated from that data on the day shown, using the same rules every time. Reports state how many offers they are based on and the dates covered.
Guides
Our buying guides give practical, category-specific advice: when stores usually discount, how conditions work, what to check before you buy. They don’t recommend individual stores, and they don’t contain invented statistics. Every guide is reviewed before it’s published and checked again when we update it.
Reports
Reports such as the Papyras Discount Index are produced from our own offer data with documented, repeatable queries. Before publishing, we check figures against the raw data and explain the method and its limits in the report itself.
Use of AI and software tools
We use software throughout: to sync and clean offer data, to place stores in categories and to help draft and edit text. A person reviews every guide and report before it’s published, and our category mapping for the most visited stores is checked by hand. We don’t publish AI-generated text without review, and we don’t use AI to invent offers, reviews or numbers.
Independence from commissions
Commissions never decide whether an offer appears, how it’s labeled or what our guides say. Our rankings use exclusivity, verification, discount size, how many offers a store has and how new an offer is. We don’t accept payment for placement or for coverage. See our affiliate disclosure.
What we don’t cover
We don’t list cannabis or CBD products, gambling or payday and short-term loans, and we keep vaping and adult stores off our homepage.
Corrections
If we get something wrong, we fix it and, for guides and reports, add a dated note explaining what changed. To report an error, email editor@papyrascoupons.com or use the contact page.
