Editorial and verification policy

Effective September 23, 2026

Our standard

FreeForStudent is a research directory, not a coupon reseller. Every published listing must point to a first-party brand, support, education or programme source. A third-party verification platform may be mentioned only when the official brand uses it.

What we record

• offer type: public free tier, student plan, trial, credit, institution access or paid discount;
• country or institution limits;
• payment-card and automatic-renewal conditions;
• duration, expiry or re-verification rules;
• the official source URL and last review date.

Worldwide does not mean every offer is global

The publication serves readers worldwide. Individual cards use conservative availability labels such as “United States only”, “selected countries” or “broad international availability”. Broad availability is never a guarantee for every jurisdiction.

Review method

Listings are desk-checked against live official documentation. We do not claim to have personally purchased or account-tested an offer unless that happened and can be documented. Geo-personalised, logged-in and institution-specific terms are labelled accordingly.

Corrections and expiry

A confirmed broken or materially inaccurate listing is corrected or removed. Readers can report changes through the contact form. High-risk trials and featured offers should be reviewed more often than stable public free tiers.

Commercial independence

Advertising and affiliate relationships do not determine rankings or wording. Commercial links, if introduced, will be disclosed. Payment never turns a paid subscription into a “free” listing.

Reader responsibility

Brands control final eligibility and can change terms without notice. Always read the official checkout or redemption page before providing documents, adding a payment method or starting a subscription.
