The Student Rate

UNiDAYS and Student Beans discounts — checked against the public price where we can, the same way we check NHS deals. A student code only helps if it beats what everyone else pays, so we compare both and tell you which to use. Always check the terms before you sign up.

Student discounts only show to verified students. Connect UNiDAYS or Student Beans — we store your verification status only, never your course or personal data. Verification lasts a year, then you’ll be asked to confirm again.
When the student discount wins
The code stacks on the live price or beats every public offer running. These are the ones worth verifying for — use the discount.
A laptop maker’s education store: student pricing plus a bundled accessory can beat every retailer once you total it all in.
When the public price wins
A “10% student” code is worthless next to a 25%-off public sale. We catch these and point you to the cheaper open price — no verification needed.
A fashion retailer: 10% student code, but the mid-season sale is 30% off — use the public price.

How we verify these calls
Each discount is test-applied at checkout against the live public price within the last 24 hours. We compare genuine all-in totals — delivery and fees included — and re-check weekly. When a public sale or outlet code beats the student discount, we say so and link the cheaper option instead. Every “we’d skip” keeps both totals and the date we checked as evidence.

We surface verified student discount schemes and compare them against the public price. Eligibility and the discounts themselves are set and run by each scheme and retailer — we verify your status only via UNiDAYS or Student Beans and process no discount for you. Always confirm the current offer at the source.
