Our ratings and designations will continue to be a free assessment for military recruiting programs, but now organizations can choose from multiple membership tiers for expanded benefits.
Yes. The survey remains free for all participating organizations and continues to be the foundation of our methodology. It powers:
If you’ve completed the Military Friendly® Survey and earned a designation or rating, you are automatically enrolled in the Free Membership Tier (Basic). This includes:
Under the new model’s Basic (Free) Membership Tier
Under Full (Paid) Membership Tiers (Levels 2–5)
These changes ensure authenticity, strengthen credibility, and drive veteran and spouse traffic to your verified profile.
They are paid tiers that offer expanded benefits, which may include:
The higher the level, the more benefits are unlocked. You can upgrade at any time.
There are six total tiers:
Free Tier: Access to our online support library
Paid Tiers: Options include monthly office hours, direct 1:1 support, and white-glove onboarding to ensure you maximize your membership benefits
Free tier = digital only with mandated link-back to Viqtory assets
Paid tiers (1–5) = digital + print, nonCommercial expanded usage rights
Paid membership levels can include:
Many of these opportunities are also avaible to Basic Members but must be purchased a la carte.
No. If you’ve completed the survey and earned a designation, your Basic Membership is free and includes your profile listing. However, paid tiers provide far greater visibility, marketing reach, and branding rights.
The membership model will be in full effect starting September 2.
If you are already designated, you will be placed in the Free Tier automatically.
