Feeds? Are those available? If they are it's a programming task.
Usually, coupon codes are emailed to the affiliate by the sponsor.
So, it's difficult to fully automate.

Coupons are CLICK FOR DISCOUNT COUPON
Maybe, a squeeze page for a email before the coupon appears --I would use xhr/AJAX (in page to avoid pop blockers).
Then the customer remembers/writes down their "special discount code" to use in the shopping cart of the offer/cart order.

Discount gurus? I'm at your service! I owe my knowledge in this area to my work in affiliate marketing, where I gathered a whole database of useful platforms with discounts and coupons. The most convenient platform uniting popular brands has always been Latest Shopping Guides, Sales Events and Free Shipping Tricks | DontPayFull, also it is convenient to check for new offers. Understanding how the affiliate system works in sales, you can easily find options for obtaining large discounts. I gave you the best site on my list, hope you like it.

I have never seen a coupon feed
doing that is really a piece of cake in json --old ways die hard

Well just go to cpa networks like adworkmedia and you will find many coupons offers .Maybe just write a blog post about each offer and put a link back to your offer

I was thinking more in terms of flash sales or limited time offers.
FYI: TomTop at share a sales has these but they email notification so it's not that timely. (not US because of tariff and postal rates)
Rakuten LinkShare did that years ago maybe they have devised a feed.

Some coupons are long term or static.
