They require you to do the following to obtain the giveaway or discount.

• Click a button to get a free or discounted software
• Redirect you to another page where you must enter an email and or make an account.
• Then you must click "Place Order" or similar button and you are redirected to a "Checkout" or "Download" link
• You may also be required to enter billing details for discounted software (I'm skeptical of discounted software on some of these type of sites)
• Once you get to this point you are either redirected to a licenses & Download link page or a zip file download.Most often not containing a license but the URL of the original giveaway.
• Please reference the screenshots below
