Discount vs Reality
A large percentage discount does not necessarily mean the product is selling at its best price.
About DealMints
DealMints is a deal discovery and price intelligence platform built to help shoppers make more informed buying decisions.
Online marketplaces constantly display discounts, limited-time offers, coupons and promotional prices. But a large discount percentage does not always mean that you are getting a genuinely good deal.
DealMints helps you look beyond the discount label by bringing together current prices, available offers and historical pricing information in one place.
Explore DealsShopping online should make comparing prices easier, not more confusing.
The same product can be available across multiple marketplaces at different prices. MRP discounts, bank offers, coupons, exchange offers and short-term promotions can make it difficult to understand what you are actually saving.
DealMints was created around a simple idea:
“Don't trust the discount. Verify the deal.”
Our goal is to make online deals easier to understand by helping shoppers compare the information that actually matters before making a purchase.
The important question is: “Is this actually a good price for this product?”
A product might show a large discount against its MRP while its actual selling price has remained almost the same for weeks. DealMints is being built to help shoppers understand that context.
A large percentage discount does not necessarily mean the product is selling at its best price.
Marketplace prices can change frequently, making it difficult to know whether to buy now or wait.
Bank discounts, coupons and other promotions can change the effective price you actually pay.
Discover interesting deals and offers across supported online marketplaces from one place.
We aim to verify the current marketplace price before presenting a deal as a current offer.
Historical pricing can provide useful context about whether today's price is attractive compared with previous prices.
Compare available offers for the same exact product variant across supported marketplaces, accounting for storage, colour, size and configuration.
Where information is available, DealMints can highlight relevant bank offers, coupons and other promotions that may affect the effective purchase price.
Our goal is not simply to display deals. We want to provide useful information that helps shoppers judge whether an offer deserves their attention.
We identify products, prices and potential deals from supported marketplace and partner sources.
Current pricing and relevant product information are checked using the available supported data sources.
Where sufficient information is available, current pricing can be compared with historical prices and other marketplace offers.
DealMints presents the information clearly so you can make your own buying decision.
The available data determines what can be checked. Prices and availability may change; verification does not guarantee the final marketplace price.
Suppose a product currently costs ₹49,999. Seeing the current price alone does not tell you whether it is a particularly good deal.
Historical information can add context. Comparing today's price with a recent average and a previous low makes it easier to understand where it stands.
In this example, the current price is below the 30-day average, but it is still above the previous low.
Illustrative price comparison
Price comparison only makes sense when the products being compared are actually the same. DealMints is designed around exact product variants.
We aim to compare marketplace listings belonging to the same exact variant rather than incorrectly comparing different storage capacities, colours, sizes or configurations.
Example variant
12GB RAM / 256GB / Navy
This variant could have offers from these stores. This example does not indicate current availability or supported listings.
DealMints is designed to provide useful shopping information rather than simply promote the largest-looking discount. Where available, we aim to clearly distinguish between:
We also show when pricing information was checked where that information is available.
Prices, offers and availability can change after verification. Always confirm the final price and applicable offer conditions on the marketplace before purchasing.
Some links on DealMints may be affiliate links. If you visit a marketplace through an eligible DealMints affiliate link and make a qualifying purchase, DealMints may receive a commission from the marketplace or affiliate partner.
This generally does not change the price you pay. Affiliate relationships help support the operation and development of DealMints.
An affiliate relationship should not determine whether a price is presented as a good deal. Our goal is to provide useful pricing and deal information so you can make your own decisions.
A discount label should not be the only reason to make a purchase.
Current price becomes more useful when viewed alongside historical pricing and available offers.
Price comparisons should use the same product and exact variant wherever possible.
Affiliate relationships, pricing limitations and offer conditions should be communicated clearly.
Make online deals easier to understand, compare and verify.
We want DealMints to become a place shoppers can check before making an online purchase — not just to find a discount, but to understand whether the deal actually makes sense.
