Military Exchange Partnership

The Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) offers tax-free shopping and military-exclusive pricing. 100% of its earnings support the military community.

The Navy Exchange (NEX) provides quality goods and services at a savings, supporting Navy quality-of-life programs. It benefits active duty, retirees, veterans, DoD civilians, National Guard, reservists and family members.

It is recommended to use AAFES if you served in the Army, Air Force, or Space Force and NEX if you served in the Navy or Marine Corps. However, regardless of service branch, both partnership sites are accessible to active and retired military personnel and their dependents. For full lists of authorized patrons, visit AAFES Authorized Patrons or NEX Authorized Patrons.

Military Exchange privileges are open to qualifying active-duty service members, dependents, retirees, Department of Defense civilians and retirees, and honorably discharged veterans. For full lists of authorized patrons, visit AAFES Authorized Patrons or NEX Authorized Patrons.
