The DDS App provides discounts to the Armed Forces and Veterans.

With thousands of offers already available within this service, this app acts as an ideal way to experience, find, remember those offers that are of particular interest to how and where you shop. We have designed the app so that all offers and features are simply a swipe or a touch away.

As there are so many offers and discounts available to qualifying members we have many quick and simple ways to help you find exactly what you are looking for.

We have built this app to make your life easier, to help you get the most benefit from the service and to find what you want as quickly as possible. We rely on our users to help us focus on what is most important.

We have incorporated all the feedback given to use from the users of version 2 into this brand new version 3 app. For those who were generous enough to share their thoughts please accept our thanks and more importantly take a look at what your contributions have allowed us to build for you.

We have been so grateful for your great ideas and even when you have pointed out something wasn't easy to find and yes, even those things that did not work. We have built in a way for you to tell us about any problems, this is found on the login screen and using this is now the fastest way to let us know if there is something not working correctly. Whilst we know some people have sought to alert us to issues using app store reviews - there is no automatic way for us to be told about those. If you have an idea that you think we might try or a feature we could include, please use the contact screen to get in touch.

So if you are part of the Defence Community, download the app and start saving today.
