Did you know that you could save money almost every time you shop online by using online coupons? Most people don’t.

Next time you purchase something online, take a look as you take your shopping cart through the checkout process. If you see, “enter your coupon or gift certificate here”, you’ve found an online merchant that uses online coupons. A quick search at Websquare can tell you if we’ve found any coupons or special promotions for that online retailer. We can also tell you what, if any, restrictions are on those coupons and when they expire. And even if you don’t find a coupon for the online merchant you want to shop at, you may find another online store where you can save money using a coupon they have listed.

What is an Online Coupon?
The most popular online coupons are clickable and can be redeemed online. As the name implies, you click on the coupon and are taken to the website of the online merchant. Usually you will be given a coupon code (e.g. FREESHIPSAVE$) which must be entered during the checkout process at the online merchant to receive a discount, or the coupon value will be automatically entered into the shopping basket.

Where can I find Online Coupons?

From our home page, you can search for coupons by merchant or by category. To search by merchant, simply enter the merchant name (e.g. Walmart) into Websquare search engine. This will lead you to a webpage that features all the latest coupons, sales and promotions for that merchant and extra merchant details.

If you are more interested in browsing coupons for a general shopping category, click on a category link. From there you can select the merchant that best matches your interest, and see what coupons they have available.

To redeem a coupon or offer that meets your interest, simply click on the coupon link, and you will be taken to the merchant’s web site.

What do I need to know about using Coupons?
Because merchants change their coupons and promotions frequently, make sure you see the discount in your shopping basket before you make your order final! If the shopping basket does not show a discount, it can mean that either:

• The coupon code has not been properly entered. Enter the code once more.
• The restrictions for the coupon code have not been met. Check the fine print to make sure your purchase should be covered by the coupon code.
• The coupon has been withdrawn by the merchant or is no longer valid. Some merchants do not indicate how long their coupon codes are valid for, so if the code does not work, it is safe to assume that the coupon code is no longer valid.
• The merchant website is not functionality properly.

If you have already made an order without the discount, we recommend you cancel the order or call the merchant and give them the coupon code. If the merchant cannot provide you with a discount, you can always cancel the order at no cost. Websquare is not responsible for merchants coupons not working we just provide information and you must make sure you get the discount.

Why do merchants use online Coupons?

One of the biggest challenges facing online merchants is persuading consumers to use their site. A coupon can be compelling enough for a consumer to make a purchase that they would not have made otherwise. For merchants, online coupons represent a cost effective way of introducing customers to their website.
