I’m on a fixed income. Is there any way I can get a discount on my membership?

We offer a discounted rate on annual memberships for seniors (ages 50 and above) and service personnel (U.S. military, police or fire professions).

New members: To receive this discount, select one of the “Annual + Discount” options listed on the registration page.
Current members: To apply this discount to your membership, please call us to update your account at 1-800-KOMANDO (566-2636).

Please note: If you’re receiving our seniors and service personnel discount and are found not to qualify for this special rate, your Komando Community membership will revert to the full price of the membership plan you’ve selected without notice, and no refunds will be given.

If you don’t qualify for this discount, you can get a free membership by becoming a moderator for the Komando Community or The Kim Komando Show Facebook Group. You can apply here.

Managing your account

If I have a Techie membership, can I upgrade to Pro?

Yes – you can upgrade your membership level at any time. To do so, simply visit your Komando Community account page and click the “Upgrade or change your membership” button.

When you upgrade your membership, the amount you pay will be prorated and you will only be charged the difference in price.

I’m 49. Will I automatically receive the seniors and service personnel discount when I turn 50?

No – we don’t ask for your birth date at signup, so we have no way to know when to apply this discount to your membership. As soon as you qualify, please call us at 1-800-KOMANDO (566-2636), and we’ll apply the seniors and service personnel discount to your current membership.
