Modell’s Sporting Goods

Modell’s, the popular Northeast sporting goods and apparel retailer, has long had a tradition of offering customers a great product selection with a commitment to quality and exceptional customer service. Founded in 1889, this household name has grown from their first store in New York City to over 150 locations throughout the Northeast. As the retail landscape has changed, they’ve also grown their online business to better reach customers across the US.

Given their commitment to their customers, Modell’s wanted to bring a variety of exclusive offers of 10% off an entire order to certain customers: Students, military members, and first responders such as police officers, EMTs and firefighters. Since they wanted to offer these online, they needed a tool to ensure these offers remained exclusive. That’s when they teamed up with SheerID.

To bring these offers to life, SheerID implemented a custom iframe verification form for each of the specific deal landing pages. Customers simply visit the landing page, click to verify, and input the required information. SheerID verifies their status within seconds, all within the existing customer experience. Upon approval, customers receive a unique, one-time use promotion code that can be redeemed during checkout.

This simple solution has empowered Modell’s to uphold their tradition of excellent customer service through unique, exclusive offers available to eligible customers everywhere.
