LTD Tracker for AppSumo, StackSocial & PitchGround
DealKeep is the LTD tracker (lifetime deal tracker) that catches what spreadsheets miss — refund windows closing tomorrow, founder accounts gone quiet, tier caps you forgot you upgraded. Track every LTD from every marketplace in one dashboard.
What is a lifetime deal tracker?
DealKeep is a lifetime deal tracker: a system for recording every lifetime deal (LTD) you purchase from AppSumo, StackSocial, PitchGround, SaaS Mantra, DealFuel, Dealify and other marketplaces. It keeps the post-sale details that matter — refund deadline, tier cap, activation status and founder health — in one dashboard.
Why a tracker beats a spreadsheet
For AppSumo refund windows DealKeep uses 60 days; PitchGround refund windows are 14 days, while StackSocial publishes no day-count window. DealKeep surfaces these marketplace-specific deadlines automatically, so you can act before a refund window closes. AppSumo's refund policy is the official reference.
- Refund windows surface automatically. AppSumo gives you 60 days; PitchGround 14; StackSocial publishes no day-count window at all. A tracker reminds you before each deadline closes — a spreadsheet just sits there.
- One source of truth. Marketplace order pages get archived, deal pages get pulled, founder dashboards change owners. The tracker keeps the historical record even when the marketplace forgets.
- Status flags catch problems early. If a tool's founder goes silent or the refund policy shifts, the tracker raises a flag; you decide whether to refund while you still can.
Lifetime deal tracker template vs. a purpose-built tracker
Search "lifetime deal tracker" and the first results are templates — a Notion board, a Google Sheets tab, a Coda doc, an Airtable base. They are a fine place to start, and they all fail the same way: they only know what you remember to type into them.
Where every tracker template breaks
- Manual entry. You paste deals in by hand — until the week you buy six in a Black Friday sale and never catch up.
- No refund clock. A spreadsheet cell can't watch a 60-day AppSumo window or a 14-day PitchGround one and warn you before it closes.
- No status awareness. A template never notices a founder went quiet or a tool stopped loading; it just shows the row you typed months ago.
- You stop updating it. Every LTD spreadsheet dies the same death — abandoned by month two, right when you needed it most.
What a purpose-built tracker adds
DealKeep imports deals automatically, auto-tags each refund window by marketplace, alerts you 7, 3, and 1 days before it closes, and flags tools whose founders go dark. It is the upgrade from the template you were always going to abandon — and the Free Forever plan tracks your first 10 tools at no cost.
Refund deadlines, never missed
Every LTD comes with a refund window. Miss it and the $79 line item is permanent. DealKeep watches the clock for you.
How DealKeep tracks refund eligibility
- Auto-detected refund window per marketplace. Imported deals get tagged with the right window length based on where you bought.
- Email + in-app alerts. 7-day, 3-day, and day-of reminders before each refund window closes.
- Refund-eligible filter. One click to see every tool you can still return today.
- Marketplace-specific links. Jump straight to the order page where you actually request the refund.
Status tracking: Active, Refunded, Returned
A lifetime deal isn't really "lifetime" if you can't tell which tools are still earning their seat. DealKeep tracks every state transition.
The five LTD states
- Active — the tool is working, the founder is engaged, and you're using it.
- Inactive — you bought it, you haven't logged in for 90+ days. Candidate for refund or removal.
- Refunded — you returned it inside the refund window. Recorded so it doesn't show up as "lost money".
- Returned — you stopped using it after the refund window closed. Track for ROI math.
- Founder gone — the founder stopped responding or the company shut down. Flagged automatically.
How DealKeep tracks every LTD you buy
DealKeep records every LTD automatically once you connect: import AppSumo orders through the Chrome extension, upload a CSV or Excel file, paste a URL, or add a tool by hand. DealKeep then parses deal terms, refund window and tier cap, monitors the deadlines, and records each tool's status.
Step 1 — Import in minutes
The Chrome extension grabs your AppSumo orders in bulk. For everything else, upload a CSV or Excel export, paste a product URL, or add the tool manually. DealKeep parses deal terms, refund window, and tier cap automatically.
Step 2 — Auto-tag refund window
Each deal gets the right refund window based on the marketplace. AppSumo deals get 60 days; PitchGround 14. Stores that publish no day-count window, like StackSocial, are flagged rather than given a false deadline. No manual entry.
Step 3 — Watch the clock
DealKeep monitors every refund deadline and alerts you 7 days, 3 days, and on the day-of. Filter the dashboard to "refund-eligible" and see exactly what's still returnable.
Step 4 — Mark status as you go
One click to mark a tool Active, Refunded, Returned, or Founder gone. Status drives the ROI math. Status drives the dashboard.
Track lifetime software deals from every platform
A lifetime deal is a one-time payment for software you would normally rent through a monthly subscription. That single price is the entire appeal — pay once, keep lifetime access, and save thousands versus the recurring plan. It is also exactly why a tracker matters: a one-time purchase leaves no monthly invoice to remind you the tool exists, so without a system it quietly disappears.
Every marketplace, every software category
DealKeep tracks lifetime software deals from AppSumo, StackSocial, PitchGround, SaaS Mantra, DealFuel, Dealify, and 20+ more — across every category you actually buy in: marketing and content marketing tools, AI writing, SEO, video, automation, design, and analytics. One platform, one stack, no matter where each deal came from.
Who uses a lifetime deal tracker
- The refund-window saver. You grabbed six deals in a Black Friday sale and need to decide — before the clock runs out — which to keep and which to return for a refund.
- The agency owner. You run client work on a dozen lifetime tools and need to prove each one still earns its seat instead of leaking budget.
- The serial Sumo-ling. You have bought lifetime access to hundreds of tools over the years and genuinely cannot remember what you own without a tracker watching it for you.
Lifetime deal tracker FAQ
What does LTD tracker mean?
LTD is short for lifetime deal — software you pay for once and keep forever. An LTD tracker (the same thing as a lifetime deal tracker) records every LTD you own and watches the parts that expire: refund windows, redemption deadlines, and tier caps. DealKeep is a purpose-built LTD tracker that does this automatically for AppSumo, StackSocial, PitchGround, and 20+ marketplaces.
Is there a free lifetime deal tracker template for Notion or Google Sheets?
Plenty exist, and they work until you stop updating them. The catch is that a Notion, Sheets, or Coda template is manual — it can't auto-import your orders, watch refund windows, or flag a founder who's gone quiet. DealKeep does all three, and its Free Forever plan tracks up to 10 tools at no cost, so you get a real tracker without the spreadsheet upkeep.
What's the best lifetime deal tracker?
The best tracker is the one that updates itself. A template you maintain by hand loses to a tool that imports purchases, auto-detects each marketplace's refund window, and alerts you before deadlines close — which is what DealKeep does across AppSumo, StackSocial, PitchGround, and 20+ more marketplaces.
How long is the AppSumo refund window?
Most AppSumo deals carry a 60-day money-back guarantee, but the exact window is printed on each deal page — see AppSumo's official refund policy. DealKeep auto-tags every imported deal with its marketplace window (AppSumo 60 days, PitchGround 14) and alerts you before it closes. StackSocial publishes no day-count window — its digital purchases are non-refundable once you reveal the licence code — so those are flagged rather than given a deadline.
Can I track deals from marketplaces other than AppSumo?
Yes. DealKeep tracks lifetime software deals from any source — AppSumo, StackSocial, PitchGround, SaaS Mantra, DealFuel, Dealify, and direct founder deals. If you have the order email or a link, it can be tracked.
How is a tracker different from a spreadsheet?
A spreadsheet records what you type; a tracker watches the clock. It auto-detects each refund window, flags tools whose founders have gone quiet, and surfaces what is still returnable today — none of which a static sheet does on its own.
Does tracking my deals cost anything?
No. The Free Forever plan tracks up to 10 tools. The 7-day free trial unlocks unlimited deals and every alert, with no credit card and no charge without an explicit choice.
