The Military Star Program, overseen by the Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES), is offering card members who have been affected by Hurricane Helene emergency assistance with their accounts, and has extended the deadline for relief to Nov. 30 after Hurricane Milton hit Florida.

“The back-to-back hurricanes have been devastating on the communities affected, and the Military Star Team is here to provide relief for those digging out from the storms,” said Tommy Ward, senior vice president (SVP) of the Exchange Credit Program (ECP). “Card members in these areas can focus on recovery and taking care of each other.”

HOW IT WORKS

Card members can receive 90 days at zero-percent interest and no payments on existing balances and new purchases by calling the Military Star Contact Center through Nov. 30 at (877) 891-7827.

Emergency relief is valid for active card members in affected areas. Standard account terms will apply after 90 days. New purchases will be added to the existing balance during the 90-day emergency relief period.

Shoppers who sign up for a new Military Star account through Nov. 30 may also be eligible to receive zero-percent interest and no payments for 90 days, in addition to the standard 10-percent-off all first-day purchases.

The offer for new card members is subject to credit approval. The first-day discount for new card members will be applied as a credit on the first monthly billing statement.

The Military Star Card is accepted at all military exchanges and commissaries. For more information or to apply for a card, visit https://aafes.media/MilStarPA.
