\"\"DALLAS \u2013<\/strong> The Army & Air Force Exchange Service continues to make customer-friendly upgrades to ShopMyExchange.com<\/a>, recently adding several new features that make it even easier to shop online with the Department of Defense\u2019s largest military retailer.<\/p>\n

The ongoing updates began last year as the Exchange prepared to extend a lifelong online shopping benefit to all honorably discharged Veterans on Veterans Day 2017. Eligibility to receive military-exclusive pricing and tax-free shopping at ShopMyExchange.com<\/a> can be verified at ShopMyExchange.com\/Veterans<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The latest upgrade includes text-message order updates, which notify shoppers as soon as orders have shipped and when they are delivered, and a predictive search engine<\/a> that helps shoppers find what they are looking for faster than ever.<\/p>\n

Shoppers can also now initiate product returns from the site\u2019s My Account page, hastening the return process and eliminating the need to include a pre-printed return label with every order. MILITARY STAR\u00ae<\/sub> cardholders can now check their available balance on the My Account page, making it easier to take advantage of the card\u2019s industry-low interest rate and competitive rewards program.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are honored to bring this next-generation online shopping experience to the military community,\u201d said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Luis Reyes, the Exchange\u2019s senior enlisted advisor. \u201cThese improvements make shopping online with the Exchange easier than ever for Warfighters, military families, retirees and honorably discharged Veterans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s site updates added capacity for 30,000 simultaneous shoppers, introduced near-real-time inventory updates and re-engineered ShopMyExchange.com<\/a>\u2019s mobile site to adapt to all devices\u2019 screens.<\/p>\n

More upgrades to ShopMyExchange.com<\/a>, including a redesigned shopping cart and checkout section, are expected later this year.<\/p>\n
