Deal Score

A badge on every offer that tells you the truth

A "50% OFF" sticker means nothing if the original price was inflated. PriceCheck's Deal Score analyses each offer against its real price history, the current market range across all stores, and the product's historical lows. The result is a simple badge on the offer itself.

Hover over any badge for the full analysis: how the price compares to the 90-day average, whether the discount is genuine, and what we recommend.

🔥 REAL DEALA genuinely exceptional price. Often a historical low. Buy with confidence.
👍 GOOD DEALBelow the typical market price. A solid buy.
😐 OKAY DEALAround the normal price. Nothing special, nothing bad.
👎 POOR DEALAbove the going rate. You can do better, and we will show you where.

Merchant Trust

Shop Trust Scores on every store, before you click buy

The cheapest price means nothing if the store never delivers. Every merchant on PriceCheck carries a Trust Score out of 10, built from real customer reviews, delivery track record, returns handling, and years of trading history. You see it right next to the price on search results and product pages.

Our Detailed Shop Comparison goes further: for any product you can compare stores side by side on price, trust, delivery, returns policy, and accepted payment methods, all in one table.

  • Trust Score out of 10 with star rating for every merchant
  • Backed by thousands of verified shopper reviews
  • Side-by-side shop comparison table on product pages
  • Warning indicators on stores with unresolved complaints

Our systems re-check 20 million price points every single day, with high-demand products refreshed many times a day. When you click through to a store, the price you saw is the price you get.

  • Popular products re-crawled multiple times per day
  • Hover the clock for the full update date and time

Price Alerts

We watch the price so you don't have to

See the bell icon on any product card? Click it, set your target price, and PriceCheck takes over. Our trackers monitor that product across every store, around the clock. The moment any merchant drops below your target, you get notified by email or push notification.

Pair alerts with your watchlist (the heart icon) to build a list of everything you are waiting to buy. Many shoppers save thousands of Rands a year simply by waiting for the alert instead of buying on impulse.

  • One click on the bell icon on any product sets up tracking
  • Set your own target price, or let us alert you on any drop
  • Email and browser push notifications, your choice
  • Manage every alert from your profile dashboard
