FreebiesLovers Editorial Guidelines & Review Policy

Updated November 2025 • FreebiesLovers Editorial Team

At FreebiesLovers, our goal is simple: help you find legit free samples and freebies without wasting time on scams, survey farms, or “free” offers that end up asking for your credit card.
These editorial guidelines explain how we research, verify and present offers on FreebiesLovers.com.

Our Mission

FreebiesLovers was created for people who want to save money with real free samples, not fake promises.
We focus on:

  • Legit free sample offers directly from brands, retailers or reputable testing panels;
  • Clear instructions on how to claim each offer;
  • Safety and privacy – avoiding offers that ask for unnecessary personal or payment data.

Who Creates Our Content

Our long-form guides and how-to articles are written and updated by the FreebiesLovers Editorial Team and experienced contributors such as
Sarah Thompson, Free Samples & Product Testing Expert since 2015.

Contributors are selected based on:

  • Hands-on experience with free sample programs and product testing panels;
  • Ability to explain complex topics in clear, user-friendly language;
  • Commitment to our fact-checking and verification standards.

How We Find & Select Offers

Every offer we list on FreebiesLovers goes through a basic review process before publication:

  • Source check: we look for offers that come from an official brand website, retailer or well-known research / product testing panel.
  • Eligibility: we confirm key details such as country (for example, USA-only), age limits and one-per-household rules.
  • Cost: we avoid “free” offers that require a purchase or hidden subscription. If shipping is required, it must be clearly disclosed.
  • Safety & privacy: we avoid offers that ask for credit card numbers, Social Security numbers or other unnecessary sensitive data.
  • Time sensitivity: we note when offers are limited-time or while-supplies-last.

When we publish editorial guides (for example, “Free Samples by Mail in the USA”), we use a mix of:

  • Brand and retailer websites;
  • Publicly available industry reports and statistics;
  • Real feedback from our community and contributors.

How We Test & Verify Offers

Whenever possible, members of our team or trusted contributors personally:

  • Apply for the offer using a real mailing address;
  • Track how long it takes for the sample or product to arrive;
  • Check whether the product matches what was promised on the offer page;
  • Review any follow-up requirements such as surveys or reviews.

We cannot guarantee that every offer will work for every user, but we actively remove offers that stop working or generate repeated complaints.

Update Policy

Free sample offers change quickly. Our team:

  • Reviews key guides and categories at least once per month;
  • Updates or removes expired offers as soon as we become aware of them;
  • Adds new, high-value freebies as brands launch campaigns.

If you see an expired or broken offer, you can let us know via our contact page and we will review it as soon as possible.

How FreebiesLovers Makes Money

FreebiesLovers is free to use. To support the site, we sometimes use:

  • Affiliate links: if you click a link and sign up or make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
  • Advertising: display ads served through reputable ad networks.

Affiliate relationships do not influence whether we list an offer or how we describe it. We never charge brands for “guaranteed” positive coverage, and we do not sell your personal data.

Corrections & User Feedback

We want our guides to be accurate and helpful. If you notice an error, outdated information or a suspicious offer, please contact us and include:

  • The page URL;
  • The name of the offer;
  • A short description of the problem (expired, scammy, wrong details, etc.).

We review correction requests and, when necessary, update the page or remove the offer.
