Simply Be

Simply Be does not run its own dedicated armed forces discount scheme. The genuine route to a saving is through Blue Light Card, which covers serving personnel, reservists, veterans and MoD civilians alongside NHS and emergency services staff, giving access to a Simply Be discount code once your status is verified.

Whatever your eligibility, the latest Simply Be offers and deals are listed on this page and updated regularly, so you can save on plus-size fashion, footwear and accessories even without going through a third-party verification scheme first.

Does Simply Be offer a military discount?

There is no Simply Be military discount run directly by the retailer for serving personnel or veterans. The confirmed route is Blue Light Card, the membership scheme for NHS, emergency services, social care and the armed forces.
Blue Light Card members can access a Simply Be discount code through the member portal, offering exclusive savings on selected products.
You need an active Blue Light Card membership to unlock it, and the code is applied at the online checkout rather than in Simply Be stores.

Separately,
the Defence Discount Service is the official Ministry of Defence discount service for the UK's Armed Forces, Defence Community and Veterans
, but we could not confirm Simply Be as a current partner brand on that scheme. If that changes, this page will reflect it. In the meantime, the Blue Light Card route above, plus the Simply Be offers listed on this page, are the ways we can currently verify.

How to claim the Simply Be military discount

1. Check the live Simply Be offers listed on this page first, as some may apply without needing to verify your status anywhere else.
2. If you hold or qualify for Blue Light Card, log in to your account and search for Simply Be to find the current discount code.
3. Copy the code and head to the Simply Be website, adding your chosen fashion, footwear or accessories to your basket.
4. Enter the code in the promo box at checkout and confirm the saving has applied before you pay.
5. If you are not yet a Blue Light Card member, check your eligibility as serving, reserve or veteran armed forces before signing up, since membership verification takes time.

Who is eligible

Blue Light Card eligibility for the forces community is specific.
Blue Light Card provides exclusive discounts to serving, reserve, veteran Armed Forces personnel and MOD civilians.
That means current Regulars, Reserve Forces, HM Armed Forces Veterans and MoD Civil Servants can all apply. Proof of service is required when you sign up, with a payslip, staff ID or service documentation typically accepted. Spouses, partners and cadet forces are not listed as a standalone eligible category for Blue Light Card in the same way they are for the Defence Discount Service, so if you fall into one of those groups, the offers listed on this page are likely to be your most straightforward option for a saving at Simply Be.

Other ways to save at Simply Be

Start with the Simply Be offers and deals listed on this page, since these are checked and updated without needing any membership verification. Beyond that, Simply Be runs several genuine ways to bring the price down:

• A dedicated sale section with reductions across clothing, footwear and beauty, with savings that change regularly, so treat any percentage as accurate only at the time of writing.
• An outlet section for further reductions on past-season lines.
• Simply Be Perks, a free loyalty programme giving members exclusive access to surprise discounts, free gifts and giveaways
  , plus early access to sales.
• Signing up for the Simply Be email newsletter, which gives new subscribers an instant discount code for their first order along with early notice of flash sales.
• Free click and collect on orders over £40, with paid standard or next-day delivery below that threshold.
• Free returns for UK customers within 28 days of delivery, provided items are unworn and still have their tags attached.
• The Simply Be app, which carries exclusive discounts reserved for app users alongside the full product range.

Keep in mind that
Simply Be offers a multitude of ways to save by shopping on their website, but they honor only one coupon per order
, so weigh up whether a Blue Light Card code or a sale-page reduction gets you the better price before you check out.

About Simply Be

Simply Be is a British fashion retailer championing body positivity and inclusive sizing, owned by the N Brown Group, which also operates JD Williams and Jacamo, specialising in clothing, lingerie, wide-fit footwear and accessories for UK sizes 10 to 32.

Simply Be military discount FAQs

Is there a Simply Be military discount?

Not one run directly by Simply Be. The confirmed route for serving personnel, reservists and veterans is through Blue Light Card, which lists a Simply Be discount code for verified members. Otherwise, the offers listed on this page are open to everyone, no verification needed.

Is there a Simply Be veterans discount?

Yes, in the sense that HM Armed Forces Veterans are an eligible Blue Light Card category, so a veteran who signs up and verifies their service can access the Simply Be discount code through that scheme in the same way serving personnel can.

Can I use a Blue Light Card or Defence Discount Service at Simply Be?

Blue Light Card, yes, once your account is verified and you find Simply Be in the member portal. We could not confirm Simply Be as a current Defence Discount Service partner, so check the offers on this page as your alternative if you only hold a DDS membership.

Can I stack a Simply Be discount code with other offers?

Generally no. Simply Be typically allows one discount code per order, so a Blue Light Card code usually cannot be combined with a separate newsletter or sale code. Compare the saving each one offers before you commit to a basket.

Does Simply Be offer free delivery for forces families?

Click and collect is free on orders over £40, with standard and next-day delivery charged below that threshold. Frequent shoppers may find an annual delivery pass works out cheaper across several orders a year.

Does Simply Be deliver to BFPO addresses?

We could not confirm a specific BFPO delivery policy on the Simply Be website at the time of writing. If you are ordering to a BFPO address, it is worth checking the delivery options at checkout or contacting customer service directly before you place an order.

How much can I actually save at Simply Be?

It depends on the route. Sale and outlet sections change regularly, the newsletter unlocks a first-order code, and Blue Light Card members can add their verified discount code on top of everyday full-price items. Treat any specific percentage as accurate only at the time of writing, since retailers adjust these often.
