What's hidden in your chromosomes?

Occasionally there are sales or discount voucher codes available for the purchase of DNA tests for genealogy.  I will publish them on this page whenever I'm aware of good deals to share.

Also compare the features and prices of the major DNA testing companies.

Family Tree DNA

• FamilyTreeDNA.com sells several different types of DNA tests for genealogy
• Autosomal Transfer - if you have already done a DNA test with AncestryDNA or 23andMe, you can transfer your raw DNA data file to FTDNA for free matching in their Family Finder customer database (note that you will see your closest matches but a full test is required to see all your matches).
• The free autosomal transfer doesn't provide access to all the available features & tools, but they can be unlocked for US$19 - Unlock is currently on sale for US$10 until 30 Sep 2017 - enter voucher code ATUL0917 in the cart to get the reduced price!
• Project Discount:  For Y-DNA tests (males only), join a FTDNA Project before ordering to save US$20.  Find a project matching your surname, or simply start your order by clicking on a reduced-priced kit from Australian Citizens or New Zealand Genetic Families.  Learn more about FTDNA projects.
  (Note: project discounts apply during some sales, but not all).
• Free Y-DNA tests:  Some surname projects offer free Y-DNA tests to encourage males with particular surnames to test - so check the ISOGG list of free DNA tests.
   

23andMe

• 23andMe.com does not normally reduce prices for Australian and New Zealand purchasers, but currently the price is displaying at USD$99 for international customers (instead of the usual USD$149), so it is a good time to order.
• An Ancestry-only kit is now available for US residents for US$99 (no health reports).

AncestryDNA

• dna.ancestry.com.au 
• Apply the coupon code FREESHIPDNA in your cart to save $9.95 on shipping

Living DNA

• Living DNA breaks down your ancestry across 80 worldwide regions - three times the detail of other tests.  It also breaks down British ancestry across 21 regions, and as new discoveries are made and more regions identified, your results will be updated (Irish and German regions are currently being developed and your results will be updated as these are completed).  (Note: does not yet include a matching database for connecting relatives, but this is expected to be added soon).
