Today is the Defense Commissary Agency’s birthday and the launch day for the new customer portal, MyCommissary, which lays the foundation for more ways to shop and offers patrons online-access to their commissary’s biweekly sales flyer and reward card coupons.

Team Fairchild Commissary customers can find the portal at: https://my.commissaries.com.

“More of our patrons are accessing our website before they travel to their commissary,” said Hector Granado, DeCA marketing director. “With the launch of the MyCommissary portal, we are making their online shopping experience easier and more efficient.”

An initial sign-up is required on first-time access to MyCommissary. Customers will be asked to provide a one-time authentication of their address, first and last name, date of birth and the last four digits of their social security number to sign-up.

“We know our patrons place a high value on keeping their information private,” Granado said. “They can rest assured that the information is only being collected to confirm their eligibility for the benefit.”

Current commissary reward card holders are encouraged to update their card on the new MyCommissary website, Granado said.

Patrons with active Commissary Rewards Cards should take note of the following information:
• Any coupons already loaded to a card, but not redeemed, will be available for use until the expiration date.
• Beginning Oct. 1, patrons can update their rewards card number within the MyCommissary portal using the number on the back of the card.
• For more questions about the rewards card, call 855-829-6219 (the phone number on the back of all rewards cards). For all other questions, use the Customer Comment Form.

The Defense Commissary Agency operates a worldwide chain of commissaries providing groceries to military personnel, retirees and their families in a safe and secure shopping environment. Commissaries provide a military benefit, saving authorized patrons thousands of dollars annually on their purchases compared to similar products at commercial retailers.
