Once eligibility is confirmed, military personnel and dependents receive a promo code that allows them to apply it to the order.

Also, Nike By You, gift cards, certain Launch products, and Apple products aren’t eligible for the discount.

However, the Nike military discount is available at Nike.com, as well as at Nike and Converse stores located across the United States. There are hundreds of different locations to select from.
What You Need To Do To Prove Military Service
There are two different ways you can prove your military eligibility.
The first and slightly easier option is to visit a Nike or Converse store. Most products in the store should be eligible for the discount. If you are unsure, you can always ask a staff member.
When you go to buy the items, inform the cashier that you are military. They will probably request a valid military ID. As long as you have one to present, the 10 percent discount will be applied to the total price.
The second option is to confirm eligibility online. Nike.com uses SheerID to verify military service. Here are the steps you need to take when ordering online to get the military discount:
- Shop online at Nike.com. The discount is not guaranteed if you buy products from other third-party stores (i.e. eBay). When you see an item that you would like to purchase, add it to your cart. You can add multiple items to the same cart in order to maximize savings.
- When you have finished shopping, click “Checkout”. The option is available on the top right-hand portion of Nike.com.
- Sign into your Nike member account or shop as a guest. You can use either option, however, having an account with Nike presents you with free shipping on all orders.
- Once you reach the checkout screen, review all the purchase details. Do you have the right products and correct quantities? A total price will be displayed. The price is before the military discount has been applied. In order to receive 10 percent off you will need to enter a one-time code into the promo code field.
- In order to receive a one-time promo code, verify your service by using SheerID. First, provide your military status (active duty, reservist, veteran/retiree, registered dependent). Then designate your branch of service. Lastly, enter your complete name, birth date, and email address. Click Submit. You may be required to submit more proof at a later date.
- After military service is verified, you will receive a one-time promo code. Military members and dependents are allocated a promo code every 7 days. The code expires two weeks after it has been issued. Enter the promo code into the Checkout screen.
- The total price should now be adjusted with the 10 percent discount.
If you are having trouble getting the discount applied, you may need to contact customer service. Customer service is available by calling 1-800-806-6453. They are open seven days a week from 4 am to 11 pm PT. You also can chat with a live agent regarding products and orders 4 am to 11 pm PT (seven days a week).
In order to visit a Nike store in person, find a store near you. Certain restrictions may apply, so it is important to ask if the discount is not being applied correctly.

Do I have to re-verify my status every time I want a discount?
Yes. It is probably the biggest hassle with the Nike military personnel discount. In order to receive the discount, you need a new promo code every time you make a new order.
Thankfully the verification process is not extremely in-depth. However, expect to set aside a few more minutes to get a new code every time you place a separate order.
Customers are granted one single-use promo code for the 10 percent discount every 7 days.
Are my spouse or children eligible?
Yes! Nike provides the military discount not only for active duty members, retired members, veterans, and reservists, but also for their registered spouses and dependents. Nike recognizes dependents as those defined by the U.S. military. Any spouse is legally married to the service member.
You can receive the same 10 percent discount if you are family of a service member by providing the same eligibility at Nike.com.
Can I combine the discount with any coupon codes or other discounts?
Unfortunately, the military discount is not compatible with gift cards you receive from friends or family. If you are making a purchase with a gift card, you will not be able to receive an additional 10 percent off with a military promo code.
For other coupon codes and discounts, it can depend on the order. Some products may be eligible to receive multiple savings. Products that are already discounted online or in-store can still receive the 10 percent savings on eligible items.
