Bates is excited to announce our partnership with ID.me to provide exclusive online discounts to U.S. military community members.

ID.me is a digital identity verification network through which military members securely submit and verify their military identity online. With Troop ID through ID.me, military service members, veterans and their families can verify their status and gain access to thousands of discounts and exclusive savings online.

“In addition to shopping at a military exchange, our military personnel now have access to discounted prices online at batesfootwear.com,” said Andrew Fowler, Bates VP and General Manager. “This allows them to shop from the comfort of their home, 24 hours a day, and receive exclusive pricing and free shipping on Bates entire military product assortment.”

In addition to active duty military members, the program is also extended to active and inactive reserve, veterans, retirees, spouses and dependents.

The program launches this week on batesfootwear.com and is part of the Bates DTC initiative to provide exclusive product, content and special incentives to online customers.
