All current and former serving Defence personnel are eligible for a Department of Veterans’ Affairs Veteran Card, which may also entitle you to receive concessions or discounts. If you think you should have a White Card but you have not received it, please call 1800 VETERAN (1800 838 372).

Australian Partners of Defence (APOD) is an Australian owned and operated organisation founded by veteran families, for veteran families.

Working with businesses of all sizes, APOD delivers exclusive offers to current and former serving Australian Defence Force personnel, reservists, allied forces and their immediate family members.

APOD connects the Australian defence community with businesses that want to say thank you for your service. These businesses offer local and national discounts across all industries including travel and leisure, retail, health and wellbeing and more.
