I immediately just click the back button when some spin wheel discount thing pops up, I just figured it was temu leaking. Thank you for explaining why they are doing this, tho I still wonder why it has to be gamified and not just, click here for a coupon, is it because the agreement with Amazon precludes them from offering coupons, but neglects to forbid casino games?

I think it's just a psychological trick, I'm sure there's some statistic showing that if people think they won a larger discount by chance they're more likely to use it or something. I don't think there's any connection to Amazon, as some sites do just provide regular coupons.

A lot of those things require you to give them your email to get the coupon. They could do that with a button as well but couldn't then follow up to let you know you didn't buy anything from them in 24hrs.
