About Australian Partners of Defence

Founded in 2012, APOD is a uniquely Australian initiative designed to offer more than just everyday savings to Defence families. Created by veteran families for veteran families, we negotiate exclusive benefits and recognition for our members–ranging from savings on everyday shopping to job resources for veterans.

Our platform doesn’t just list discounts; we’re also stepping into the veteran employment sector. We aim to be a comprehensive resource for veteran job listings and military job opportunities. In short, when we talk about financial wellbeing, we see it holistically and employment is a major part of financial wellbeing.

APOD is a for purpose Australian Owned organisation created by veteran families, for veteran families.

Why our members love us

“I absolutely love my APOD membership. A fantasticly extensive range of discounts for the Defence community and some wonderful, exclusive competitions available to members. I recently was lucky enough to win a double pass to Color Run through APOD which gave my sister and I a wonderful day together.”

“APOD, not only offers the ‘Best’ discount site but it also recognises the sacrifice made by our veterans and their families.”

DAVID C ARMY

“Our family recently needed new tyres for the car. I managed to shop around and negotiate the best price which I was pretty pleased with. I then remembered I could use my APOD membership and saved a further $70. This more than re-payed for my membership. Thanks APOD for such a great program, and for putting money back into our families pocket!!”
