Your guide to every military discount on streaming services and phone plans
Save on Peacock, Disney+, T-Mobile, Verizon and more.
Military life is hard enough on families, but there are a few perks to take advantage of that soften the blow, so to speak. I've been a military spouse for nearly seven years and while we take advantage of a few military discounts, we definitely don't take advantage of all of them, let alone did we know all of what existed for us. So I'm here to help.
With a verified military ID through services like ID.me or GovX, you can access military discounts on streaming services like Peacock and Paramount+. But, sharing information about your military affiliation can also get discounts up to 25% on select phone plans from top companies.
Looking for more deals? You can get up to 30% off at Stanley, or an even higher discount on GE Appliances in a military-only shopping page. See our full guide for military discounts at shopping retailers from sports and outdoors to appliances, tech, clothing, jewelry and shoes.

How to verify your military affiliation
Most brands use a third-party to confirm your military affiliation, like ID.me or GovX.com, both are secure sites. You will need your military Common Access Card for this, so be sure to have it handy. Here is how to verify your military affiliation and receive your discount:
- Go ID.me or GovX.com and create an account.
- You will need to enter information to verify your military status, which may include service branch, date of service and .mil email address if applicable. If you are a military spouse, you may need to enter your spouse's information. You may also be required to upload photos of your CAC, a DD-214 or pay stubs.
- Submit your verification request, ID.me will review your information and provide a confirmation. Confirmation can be provided is as little as five minutes.
- Shop partner sites with a verified ID and receive your military discount!
Keep in mind, some websites may use a different website, but ID.me is one of the most common. Some sites will ask that you register for a one-time discount code and ask you to verify in other ways. Some discounts may not be available to spouses either, only the active duty, reservist or veteran member.
