$15 puts a service member on Troop Trade for a full year.
One sponsored membership. One verified veteran, active-duty, or retiree who can buy, sell, and PCS without paying dealer markup or getting scammed off-base.
Your sponsorship goes straight to the community
All membership purchases and sponsor transactions are non-refundable. By completing checkout you acknowledge that payments will not be refunded, including unused time on auto-renewing memberships and undistributed sponsorships.
A trusted marketplace is a force-readiness issue.
Service members move every 2–3 years. Off-base dealers, Craigslist scams, and predatory lenders target newly-arrived families who are pressed for time and far from home.
Troop Trade is ID.me-verified — only DoD-affiliated members trade here. That eliminates the bait-and-switch and identity scams that flood civilian marketplaces.
Listings are tied to bases so members can find vehicles and gear from a neighbor across the parking lot — not a stranger three states away.
The veteran resources your sponsorship keeps free.
Troop Trade is a service member and veteran resource first. Every tool below is open to verified members — the closed exchange is just one of them.
