What you will find here
Every page on this site is a check of one digital product, written before you spend anything. We read the seller's own pages, the refund terms and the marketplace record, then publish the price, the refund window, what we checked and what we did not, with the date and the name of who publishes it on it.
We are reader-supported: when a check links to a seller and you buy, the seller pays us a commission at no extra cost to you. No vendor pays to be reviewed, and no vendor sees a check before it goes live.
- 01
We start from the seller's own pages
Sales page, checkout and refund terms, read end to end and dated.
- 02
We separate claims from contents
What is promised versus what is listed as included.
- 03
We check the money side
Price, optional extras at checkout, refund window and who processes it.

We say what we did not check
If we did not buy or use it, the review says so, in the same size type.
Not checked means we did not test that part ourselves. It is not a flaw of the product. Every check lists at least two of them, in plain sight.
The full method, the money and the corrections policy are on how we check. Questions: [email protected].
