Due to health conditions like Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and Anxiety disorder, many war veterans in the United States are going through a tough time. Not to mention, other post-war symptoms like disability, substance abuse and weakening of relationships.

Nine percent of the overall veteran population in the U.S is homeless, says a report by the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness. Military Cost Cutters is an app that connects veteran-owned businesses and customers with a military background and vice versa.

About the Creator of Military Cost Cutters

This app was created in the year 2012 by a Marine Corps veteran Aaron Serrano. Erin is based in Davenport, Iowa and wishes to do his best to help out his brother and sisters who need some financial assistance. He created this app with the sole purpose to improve the sales of military-friendly businesses by connecting them with ex-soldiers in the same region.

How Does the Military Cost Cutters App Work?

To start making a truckload of savings this year, sign up with the Military Cost Cutter by clicking on the Sign-up button at the top of the screen, refer to the image above. It takes about 30 seconds to fill out all your information. Don?t worry, they won?t be asking you any sensitive or personal information. Just your name, location, and phone number. Next, download the free smartphone app from the relevant marketplace. It?s available for both Android and iOS devices.

Once you are done with the sign-up process, you now can move to the important part. To find the best deals in the town, enter your city name or let the GPS locate you. You will get lost of all military friendly businesses offering you services that you queried for. Next, when checking out, you do need to verify your identity by scanning your ID card. Make sure you capture the headshot. That?s it. Now you can visit the store and claim your discounted products/services.

What I Like About Military Cost Cutters App

For a war veteran, it is essential that they are respected and adored everywhere they go. It is rare for people to recognize the work that soldiers do. Hence, visiting a military-friendly business makes a war veteran feel like home.

Secondly, there are several merchants offering massive discounts for war veterans but there is no way to find out which merchant to visit. Usually, vets are forced to ask the merchants for a discount. Which can be a bit embarrassing. This app solves this particular problem. 

What I Don’t Like About Military Cost Cutters App

There?s not much to dislike about this app but they do not have discount stores in the Southern part of the country. Most of the discount stores seem to be present in the Northern US. Also, some veterans face problems while creating accounts. The app doesn?t pick up its exact location via GPS.

My Recommendation

I recommend Military Cost Cutters App to army veterans who wish to save some money on groceries, clothes, and necessary things of daily living. Depending on the product or service you are looking for, you can expect discounts of up to 50 percent.
