Ring gives verified first responders 20% off Ring products through a one-time code from VerifyPass. The listing names Police, Fire and EMT, the code leaves out bundles and offers, and each code works once, so it helps to know what’s going in the cart before you verify.
Ring sells home security: cameras, alarms and doorbells, which is how the company’s own site title puts it. The discount lives on Ring’s Give-Back Discounts page, and Ring hands the verification off to VerifyPass, so what you get is a one-time code.
How To Get The Ring First Responder Discount
Ring’s page walks through the steps, and they’re short:
- Open Ring’s Give-Back Discounts page with the button below. The page’s title names Military, First Responder, Student, and Teacher.
- Click Get Code and sign in to VerifyPass.
- After verification, VerifyPass gives you a one-time discount code. Apply it during checkout.
- For a later purchase, come back to the same page and repeat step one. Ring’s page says the limit is one code per 24 hours.
Who the listing names
VerifyPass lists Ring’s offers by group. First responders sit on a line called “First Responder & Government Discount,” and the groups spelled out under it are Police, Fire and EMT. That’s the literal wording, so if you’re a dispatcher, a corrections officer or another kind of responder, the listing doesn’t say you’re covered either way, and the verification step is where you’d find out. Federal and local government employees share that same discount line.
What the 20% does and doesn’t cover
The listing describes the code as a 20% discount on Ring products, excluding bundles and offers. In plain terms: a bundle, or any product that’s already part of a promotion, won’t take the code. If you were planning to buy a camera and a doorbell together as a bundle, price the single items with the code against the bundle price before you pick one. The listing says “Ring products” and doesn’t mention subscription plans one way or the other, so check what your cart actually discounts. Shipping and taxes may apply on top.
The fine print
The terms on VerifyPass’s Ring listing are worth a read before you verify:
- The program is valid in the U.S. only.
- Discount codes are subject to ID verification in Ring’s sole discretion, so approval isn’t automatic.
- A code can’t be combined with other codes from this program or with other Ring discounts or promotions, and it can’t be applied retroactively. If you’ve already placed an order, it’s too late to add it.
- Each discount code is limited to one use per customer.
- Ring can change or discontinue the program at any time without notice, including by limiting the number of codes per customer or the eligible products.
