Verizon military discount

How to get the Verizon military discount

Register online through ID.me or sign up in a Verizon retail store; the discount shows up on your monthly bill.

1. Open Verizon's Plan Discounts for Military page and choose Verify military status.
2. Select Get Started and sign in to ID.me, or register if you do not have an account.
3. When validated, choose New to Verizon or Already with Verizon and follow the prompts.
4. Watch for a confirmation email. The discount starts appearing 1-2 billing cycles after verification.

Who qualifies

• Active duty
• Retirees
• Veterans
• Current or former Guard or reserve
• Gold Star family members and next of kin

The person applying must be the military member (or Gold Star family member) and also the Verizon account owner or account manager.

Veterans without a military ID can prove status with VA's digital card: see how to get a Veteran ID Card.

Exclusions and limits

• The military discount cannot be combined with Deals at Work, Student, or other Those Who Serve discounts (Teachers, Nurses and First Responders).
• The applicant must be the military member and the account owner or account manager.
• Verizon applies the discount to up to 4 mobile lines on the account.

Tips before you pay

• If you are the military member but not the account owner, ask the owner to make you an account manager first. Verizon says the applicant must hold one of those roles.
• Verizon says no annual renewal is required for the military discount.
• You can still stack Auto Pay, paper-free billing and the Mobile + Home discount with the military discount, according to Verizon.

Good to know

Verizon says military members may also qualify for a Fios home internet discount, covered on a separate Fios military FAQ page. Fios is limited to certain metro areas.
