IRVING, Texas 7-Eleven Inc. is working with Veterans Advantage to offer exclusive benefits to the organization’s members on the 7-Eleven app through the 7Rewards customer loyalty program.

“At 7-Eleven, we recognize and value the sacrifice our nation's veterans have made to our country and are honored to offer a token of our thanks through our 7Rewards program," said Joe DePinto, president and CEO of 7-Eleven. "We're proud to collaborate with Veterans Advantage on this exciting initiative and thank all U.S. military veterans for their service to our country."

Veterans Advantage members can access 7-Eleven savings and benefits by visiting veteransadvantage.com to link their account to 7-Eleven and take advantage of offers from both programs. They will receive a welcome offer of 800 points when registering for the 7Rewards program.
