Last updated: November 2, 2026 · On November 2, 2026 we checked the ScoreCard benefits page, the price match policy page and the promo exclusions page on dickssportinggoods.com, plus DICK’S official press releases. DICK’S can change discounts and exclusions at any time, so confirm the live terms at checkout or with a store teammate before you shop.
- No, not as of November 2, 2026: we did not find a standing military, veteran or “heroes” discount on dickssportinggoods.com or in any official DICK’S press release.
- Who qualifies: there’s no military program to qualify for. ID.me, the verification service many retailers use, also says on its DICK’S page that it is “not aware of DICK’S Sporting Goods offering Military community discounts.”
- What works instead: the free ScoreCard program pays 1 point per $1 (2 points per $1 on DICK’S own brands), and 300 points = a $10 reward. Orders of $49 or more ship free.
- Price match: DICK’S says it will match a lower price on the same product at another retailer if you show proof (“Best Price Guarantee”).
- Veterans Day 2026: as of November 2, 2026, we did not find an official DICK’S Veterans Day discount announcement for 2026.
DICK’S Sporting Goods is a go-to store for team gear, footwear, fitness equipment, hunting, fishing and golf. That makes it a natural place for service members, veterans and military families to ask about a discount. Lots of websites say DICK’S has a 10% military discount or a yearly heroes event. We didn’t find either on DICK’S own website or in its official announcements.
Below we cover exactly what dickssportinggoods.com and DICK’S official press releases say: whether any military pricing exists, what happened with past seasonal offers, and the official ways to save that anyone can use, including ScoreCard rewards, the Best Price Guarantee and free shipping.

Based on dickssportinggoods.com pages and DICK’S official press releases checked November 2, 2026. The policy pages load with JavaScript, so we couldn’t read every line of the price match and return policies. Read the full text on DICK’S site before you rely on a specific rule.
Does DICK’S Sporting Goods have a military discount?
No. As of November 2, 2026, DICK’S does not publish a year-round military, veteran or first responder discount. We searched dickssportinggoods.com for a military, heroes or veterans discount page. The military and Veterans Day results we found were all merchandise pages, such as “Veterans Day Apparel,” “NCAA Military Appreciation Gear” and “NFL Salute to Service Gear.” Those sell themed products. None of them offers a discount for people who served.
DICK’S investor press releases didn’t mention one either. The 2025 holiday deals release (dated Nov. 13, 2025) covers ScoreCard, free shipping, pickup and the “DICK’S Best Price Guarantee” but says nothing about military pricing. DICK’S Oct. 15, 2026 release on hiring over 11,000 seasonal teammates mentions “associate discounts” for employees and nothing for military customers.
ID.me runs the verification behind many retailers’ military discounts. Its DICK’S page currently says: “We are not aware of DICK’S Sporting Goods offering Military community discounts.” So there’s no ID.me route right now either.
Who qualifies for savings at DICK’S?
Since there’s no military program, eligibility for a military discount doesn’t come into it. Here’s what is open to everyone, service members and veterans included:
- Any shopper: ScoreCard is free to join in store, online or in the DICK’S app, with “No fee to apply.”
- Bigger spenders: ScoreCard Gold status needs “$500+ Annual Spend” or being an active ScoreRewards credit cardholder, according to DICK’S ScoreCard benefits page.
- Anyone with proof of a lower price: the Best Price Guarantee applies when you can show the same product for less at another retailer.
How to save at DICK’S without a military discount (step by step)
- Join ScoreCard before you check out. Sign up free online, in the DICK’S app or at the register so your purchase earns points.
- Favor DICK’S own brands when they fit. The ScoreCard page lists 2 points per $1 on the company’s brands, compared with 1 point per $1 on everything else.
- Pick your 3X Points Day. The ScoreCard benefits page lists “Pick Your 3X Points Day” as a member perk. Plan a big purchase, like cleats or a treadmill, for that day.
- Check prices elsewhere. If another retailer has the identical item for less, bring proof (the product page or ad) and ask DICK’S to match it under the Best Price Guarantee.
- Get to $49 for free shipping. DICK’S offers free shipping on orders of $49 or more. You can also use One-Hour Pickup, which DICK’S says has “most orders being ready within one-hour.”
- Redeem rewards. Every 300 points turns into a $10 reward that you can use on a later purchase.
What’s excluded from DICK’S promotions?
DICK’S keeps a dedicated “Promo Exclusions” page on dickssportinggoods.com that lists brands and products left out of coupon and promotional offers. The list changes often and the page loads dynamically, so we won’t repeat specific brands here. Check that page, or the fine print on any coupon, before you count on a discount for a particular brand.
Can you combine ScoreCard rewards with coupons or price match?
ScoreCard points are earned on qualifying purchases and rewards come off later orders. DICK’S doesn’t spell out on the pages we could read how rewards, coupons and price matching stack in one transaction, and the price match policy page didn’t fully load for us. Our advice is to ask the cashier or customer service before you pay, especially if you want a price match and a coupon on the same item. If DICK’S won’t stack them, use whichever single option saves more.
Is there a DICK’S Veterans Day discount in 2026?
As of November 2, 2026, we did not find an official DICK’S Veterans Day 2026 discount on dickssportinggoods.com or in DICK’S press releases. Some third-party sites say DICK’S has run seasonal military or heroes promotions in past years. We couldn’t confirm any of those on DICK’S own site, so we don’t treat them as current.
What DICK’S does stock for Veterans Day is themed gear, like Veterans Day apparel, military appreciation college gear and the NFL “Salute to Service” collection. If DICK’S announces a military offer before November 11, it should show up on dickssportinggoods.com or in the DICK’S app, and we’ll update this page.
Other real ways to save at DICK’S Sporting Goods
- ScoreCard (free): 1 point per $1, 2 points per $1 on DICK’S brands, and “300 Points = $10 Reward,” per the ScoreCard benefits page. Members also get insider access to offers and faster checkout.
- ScoreCard Gold: unlocks Gold member-only offers, a dedicated customer service line and an “Annual $10 Reward.” Qualify with $500+ in annual spend or an active ScoreRewards credit card.
- Pick Your 3X Points Day: listed on the ScoreCard benefits page as a way to earn triple points on a day you choose.
- ScoreRewards credit card: DICK’S lists cardholder-exclusive deals and “Everyday Special Financing” (in store only). Financing and credit cards cost money if you carry a balance, so read the card terms carefully.
- MOVE points: DICK’S says you can connect a fitness tracker to earn daily points.
- Best Price Guarantee: DICK’S will match the lower price “if proof is provided that the same product is available for less at another retailer.”
- Free shipping and pickup: free shipping on orders of $49 or more, plus One-Hour Pickup at nearby stores.
- Clearance and seasonal sales: DICK’S runs holiday events such as Black Friday deals and members-only Deal Days for ScoreCard members, according to its 2025 holiday release.
Tips before you shop
- Don’t count on a military discount at the register. DICK’S doesn’t publish one, so plan around ScoreCard and price matching instead.
- Screenshot competitor prices. A clear product page with the price, item details and retailer name makes a Best Price Guarantee request easier.
- Time big purchases. Combine your 3X Points Day with a sale event to stack up points faster.
- Check the promo exclusions page. Coupons often skip certain brands. Know before you build a cart around one.
- Look at military-friendly alternatives. Retailers such as Nike, Home Depot and Kohl’s publish military programs. See the related deals below.
- Read the return policy first. DICK’S return rules can depend on the item category (golf clubs have their own 90-day play guarantee page, for example). Read the current return policy page before buying big-ticket items.
