Military, Emergency Services and Carer Discounts: How Much Can You Save on a New Mattress?
We offer up to 26% off everything for a range of groups including key workers, students, young people, education staff, carers and charity workers. Eligibility is confirmed through GoCertify, the process takes around thirty seconds, and the code appears on screen ready to use at checkout. This guide covers who qualifies, what the saving looks like in practice, and how to verify and apply your code.
Who The Discounts Are For
The groups we currently offer exclusive discounts to are:
- Key workers
- Students
- Young people
- Education
- Carers
- Charity
If you're serving in the armed forces, working in the emergency services, or providing care for someone, check your eligibility through the key worker and carer categories on our discounts page. The verification step confirms which group applies to you, so you don't need to work it out in advance.
How Much You Can Save
The offer is up to 26% off everything on the site. On a mattress, that's a meaningful difference. Taking 26% off a £900 mattress brings it down by £234, and on a £1,400 order across a mattress and frame the saving comes to £364.
The discount covers everything on the site, so it applies to pillows, duvets, bedding and furniture as well as mattresses and beds.
The discount can't be used in conjunction with any other Simba promotion or offer, so you'll be choosing between your verified code and whatever promotion is running at the time.
What The Saving Looks Like Across A Full Order
One of our high-tech mattresses is the obvious use, but the saving compounds when the order is bigger. A mattress at £900 with a frame at £500 comes to £1,400, and 26% off that is £364. Add pillows and a duvet and the figure climbs again.
For anyone moving house or setting up a spare room, that's usually the moment to use the code. One verified order covering everything you need produces a larger saving than several smaller orders spread over the year, and it also means one delivery to plan around.
How Verification Works
Verification is handled by GoCertify, an independent company that specialises in this. Simba doesn't process or retain any personal data for discount verification, so your details go to GoCertify and stay with them.
The steps are short:
- Go to the discounts page on our site and choose the category that applies to you.
- Provide the relevant detail you're asked for, which might be your email address, your mobile number, a payslip or an ID card.
- Wait a few seconds for the check to complete.
- Your code appears on screen.
Most people are through it in about half a minute, and the code is ready to use immediately. There's no waiting period and no application to submit by post. GoCertify's privacy notice explains how your data is handled during the check, and it's linked from our discounts page.
Applying Your Code At Checkout
Shop as you normally would, then continue to checkout. You'll see a box marked "Got a voucher? Redeem it here". Enter your code there and select Apply, and if the code is valid the discount appears on your basket straight away.
If a code doesn't seem to be working, two things are worth checking. Make sure it's been entered exactly as it appears, and make sure another offer isn't already applied to the basket, since codes can't be combined with other promotions.
During Sale Periods
Promotions work a little differently when a sale is running. In those periods you often won't need a code at all, because the offer applies automatically at checkout.
Customers verified through GoCertify receive a higher discount during promotional periods. You apply it to your basket the same way you would at any other time of year, by entering your code at checkout.
Planning Your Purchase Around It
Since the discount applies to everything on the site, the practical approach is to verify first and then build your basket in one go. A verified code covering a mattress, a frame, pillows and a duvet in a single order produces a bigger saving than splitting the same items across separate purchases over a few months.
It's also worth pairing the discount with the delivery options that suit you, as both are selected at checkout. If you're buying a complete setup, our mattresses, beds and bedding across the Simba range are all covered by the same verified code.
Offers are valid online, subject to availability, and exclusions apply. The terms on our discounts page are the definitive version.
Timing Your Order Around The Verification
Verification is quick, but it's worth doing before you start filling your basket. Having the code ready means you can apply it, see the adjusted total, and then decide on delivery options with the final figure in front of you.
Codes are issued for online use and are subject to availability, and exclusions apply. The terms on our discounts page are the version to check if you're planning a larger order, particularly around which items are included at any given time.
If You Don't Qualify For A Discount Code
Lorem ipsum dolor sit ametPlenty of people fall outside the verified groups, and there are still ways to bring the cost down. Finance is available on orders over £150, with 0% APR terms over 3, 6 and 12 months, and over 24 months on orders of at least £2,000. That spreads the same price across monthly payments without adding interest.
We also run a monthly draw for newsletter subscribers, where one first mattress order gets the full cost refunded. Subscribing takes a moment and also brings advance notice of promotional periods, which is useful if you're able to wait for a sale.
