Visit a verified coupon site (like CouponHuntz). Pick the brand you are shopping. Look for the "Verified" badge with a recent timestamp — that means the code has been hand-tested in the last 24 hours.
Click "Reveal code" or "Copy code". The code goes into your clipboard. Note any restrictions: minimum order value, excluded categories, payment method requirements.
Open the merchant's site or app. Add the items you want, making sure your cart total meets any minimum order value the code requires.
Proceed to checkout. The promo code field is usually on the order summary or payment step. Look for labels like "Promo code", "Coupon code", "Discount code", or "Voucher code". Some retailers hide it behind a "Have a code?" or "Apply offer" link — click to expand.
Paste the code (Ctrl+V on Windows, Cmd+V on Mac). Click "Apply". The discount should appear on your order summary within a second.
At the payment step, look for bank-specific offer banners. They usually stack with your coupon — pay with the indicated bank card to add another 5-15% off.
Confirm the final price reflects all discounts before paying. Complete payment. Your order confirmation should show the applied promo code.
