No. DICK’S Sporting Goods does not have a military discount. ID.me, the verification service DICK’S uses for its discounts, states: “We’re not aware that DICK’S Sporting Goods offers Military discounts.” What DICK’S does have is a 10% code for nurses, medical providers and hospital employees, and it is narrower than most sites describe.
- Military discount
- None
- First responders, teachers, students
- None listed
- Healthcare workers
- 10% off one eligible product per code (the most expensive eligible item in the cart), select styles only
- Where
- DICKS.com and the DICK’S app only
- How often
- A new code every two weeks; each code expires within two weeks
- Verification
- ID.me
Checked on October 7, 2026 against DICK’S offers on ID.me. Tip: an older ID.me address for DICK’S (/discounts/dick-s/…) wrongly says there is no nurse discount either; the current page under store 13210 lists it.
Why you may have read about a 10% military discount
Several military-benefits sites say “many individual locations” give 10% “at the manager’s discretion.” We found no DICK’S policy, page or press release that says this, and ID.me says there is no military discount. Some shopping mall websites still have old “Military Discount from DICK’S” listings in search results; when opened, the offer is gone. If a store manager gives you something, that is a local courtesy, not a program you can count on.
The healthcare discount, worked out
Because the code applies to one product, it is worth less than “10% off” suggests on a bigger cart:
- One $140 pair of shoes: you save $14.
- $140 shoes plus a $60 jacket: you still save $14, about 7% of the cart.
So put your most expensive eligible item in a separate order if you plan to buy more, and use the next code two weeks later.
