## How to get the Apple military discount

Purchases happen in a special online storefront. Apple says Apple Store and regular Apple Online Store purchases are not eligible for this discounted pricing.

1. Open Apple's Veterans and Military store page.
2. Select Verify with ID.me and sign in with your ID.me account, or create one during the process.
3. After you are verified, shop in the Veterans and Military storefront and check out there.

## Who qualifies

- Current members of the U.S. Military, National Guard and Reserve
- Veteran members of the U.S. Military, National Guard and Reserve
- Immediate family members who reside in the same household

Veterans without a military ID can prove status with VA's digital card: see [how to get a Veteran ID Card](https://www.getbasepass.com/guides/veteran-id-card).

## Exclusions and limits

- ZEISS Optical Inserts (Prescription) are excluded from discount programs.
- Apple Card Monthly Installments are not available as a payment type in the special storefront.
- Purchases made at an Apple Store or the regular Apple Online Store do not get the storefront's discounted pricing.

## Tips before you pay

- Decide where you will buy before you start. A cart built in the regular Apple Online Store will not carry the discount over.
- If you want to pay with Apple Card Monthly Installments, Apple says to use the regular store, which means giving up the discounted pricing.
- Apple offers chat and a phone line (1-800-MY-APPLE) on the program page if verification stalls.
