Veterans Advantage is the national advocate for greater respect, recognition, and rewards for those who serve in the U.S. Armed Forces and their family members. Partnering with leaders in the travel industry, financial service providers, and top national retailers, to honor and thank Veterans Advantage members with exclusive savings. Coalition partners show their respect and recognition by creating rewards verified and redeemed with the VetRewards Card, the first military ID to protect veterans' privacy.
Veterans Advantage members are never asked to show a government-issued military ID. With Veterans Advantage, members can enroll safely--without a military ID, without giving access to privacy-protected government databases, and without giving up highly-sensitive personal information. Members never have to compromise their personal identity or increase their risk of ID theft for a military discount.
To securely deliver military discounts, Veterans Advantage has created important privacy protections with coalition partners, and powerful privacy-based military verification services for members. For over 15 years, VA's privacy protections have resulted in an outstanding track record of securely verifying members’ enrollments and discount transactions with coalition partners who are Fortune 500 companies and top travel providers.
Veterans Advantage is more than just discounts. In addition to delivering important privacy protections, Veterans Advantage creates new benefits in an OurCAREPackage that have a materially positive impact on the lifestyles of the veterans and the families they serve.
OurCAREPackage is a valuable bundle of financial, medical, insurance coverage and travel benefits, including $50,000 of Global Travel Guard MedEvac Insurance and $5,000 Accidental Death Policy ("AD&D') with no medical exam required or age limits. For instance, with ID Theft Restorations Services in OurCAREPackage, a special agent is assigned to guide the member every step of the often challenging task of restoring a stolen identity. Veterans Advantage personal financial planning helps members plan the transition from military to civilian life or retirement. Worth annually over $1,000, OurCAREPackage, is included at no additional cost for this essential coverage that no one should be without.
