Frequently asked questions

Is a spreadsheet enough to track lifetime deals?

For a handful of deals, yes — genuinely. A sheet with tool, marketplace, purchase date and refund deadline works until the stack gets large enough that nobody updates it, which in practice is somewhere between 10 and 20 deals. Past that, the failure mode is silent: the refund window you forgot, the duplicate tool you bought twice, the product that shut down months before you noticed. DealKeep vs Spreadsheet Tracking walks through exactly where a sheet stops being enough.

Is DealKeep a subscription tracker?

No. Subscription trackers (TrackAllSubs, TrackMySubs and others) watch recurring charges and renewal dates. A lifetime deal has no recurring charge to watch, so it never shows up in a subscription tracker at all. DealKeep tracks one-time lifetime purchases — refund deadlines, duplicates, and whether the company behind a tool is still healthy. Many people run both.

Which of these tools finds new lifetime deals?

GrabLTD does — it is a deals aggregator first. DealKeep does not sell or list deals for purchase; it manages the ones you already own. If you want deal discovery, use an aggregator or the marketplaces directly, and use DealKeep after checkout.
