Are Brands Allowed to Have Accounts on Here??

Help

I’m very new to this, so I don’t know the rules etc, but I was just wondering if brands are allowed to showcase their items on here?

For Eg; they have a brand username and all the items on their profile are from their own brand. Is that allowed on here?

Thank you,

Morning, thanks for joining us!

Latest Deals is a community website. Every deal, voucher, freebie and competition is posted by members - not brands.

Brands are not allowed to self-promote, nor have a profile.

Latest Deals does work with some companies to share discounts to the community - for which brands can get in touch here.

Many thanks

I thought so. I came across a brand yesterday. I’m not sure how to find it again now, but I took a screenshot. I’ll attach it:

Hey jayy, just to add to what nemosays has written - if you spot a brand self promoting please report it. Thanks, Tom

Does that apply to competitions too? I have seen a couple of comps put up by bloggers who are the promoters of the comp. That doesn't seem to be quite the same issue but I did wonder.

Jaycee5 In principle, yes, it should include bloggers too in the competition section.

If you spot one, you can report it and we’ll put into Moderation.

I thought that would be the case, but I was unsure. Thank you for replying. I have attached the name above, as I‘m unable to find the post again
