Deals Store is the first deals platform built without affiliate commissions as its business model. Unlike traditional deal websites that prioritise commission-based products, we focus on transparency, trust, and genuine value. Discover and share real deals chosen for their quality, not their payout. We're building a community-first approach to deal discovery.
Hi everyone! 👋
We're excited to launch Deals Store today.
After using deal websites for years, we noticed that most platforms rely heavily on affiliate commissions. While there's nothing inherently wrong with affiliate marketing, we wondered: what would a deals platform look like if affiliate revenue wasn't the business model?
That's why we built Deals Store.
Our goal is to create a more transparent, community-driven platform where deals are discovered and shared because they offer genuine value, not because they generate the highest commission. We believe users deserve to know that recommendations are driven by quality and relevance first.
We're still at the beginning of our journey, and we'd love to hear your thoughts:
• Do you think affiliate commissions influence the deals featured on traditional platforms?
• What features would make you trust a deals website more?
• What frustrates you most about existing deal platforms?
We'll be here throughout the day to answer questions and discuss your feedback. Thanks for checking out Deals Store! 🚀
Curious how you actually make money then, since commissions are off the table. Is it ads, a subscription, or something else entirely?
Finally a deals site that doesn't feel like it's just pushing whatever pays the most. Browsed the home page and noticed the picks actually looked useful, not random junk with inflated "original" prices.
The affiliate commission problem is real. And transparency angle is very nice thing.
Curious though: how do you plan to make money if not through affiliate commissions? That's usually the hardest part of this kind of model to solve.

Finally tried The Deals Store and was honestly surprised how clean the feed feels compared to other deal sites I've used. Liked seeing a deal on a coffee maker I'd actually want, not just random junk pushed for commission.
