About Us

TroopSwap was founded by veterans with a simple mission: reward a life of service. The company fulfills this mission by authenticating military and veteran identity online in order to create a secure digital channel between reputable brands and the military community. By providing this channel, our Troop ID application allows reputable organizations to honor and recognize service without fear of fraud or abuse.

Company Culture

TroopSwap is a startup in the truest sense of the word. Employees often wear shorts and flip flops and if you don't like sitting at a desk, feel free to lounge on a couch or giant bean bag around the office. At the same, our company is unique in terms of our mission and dedication to serving the military and veteran communities. This passion creates a high degree of intrinsic value and motivation to succeed. We are an evolving company, constantly seeking new ways to better to serve the military community and our merchant partners, which at times equates to long and demanding. TroopSwap employees value shared sacrifice, personal initiative and accountability.

We also believe in supporting the community and look forward to putting on many more events like Jumping for a Purpose -

What We Look For

Service: We expect you to amaze customers with the level of service and professionalism that is provided to them. To amaze customers, you must provide a positive experience that stands out from our customers interactions with other companies. We expect that every time a customer speaks with a TroopSwap employee they will have another reason to be a lifelong customer. We amaze our military audience with our patience, with our competence and with our empathy for their incredibly difficult lifestyle.

Excellence: we expect that each member of the team will always focus on improving the company. At root, this focus on continual improvement requires recognition that our work is never finished. We embrace our mistakes as learning opportunities. “Good enough” is not good enough for our community. “Good enough” is the enemy of great. We will constantly raise the bar for our competitors and continually AMAZE our customers with the quality and productivity of our operations.

Loyalty: Your first loyalty must be to the organization and to our mission. We accomplish the mission first while ensuring that our people are always taken care of. We need exceptional people with exceptional work ethics to create an exceptional company.

Integrity: We expect you to do the right thing when no one else is watching you and to inspire others to do the same.

Entrepreneurial: You are expected to act as if you are the CEO of your own company. By nature, entrepreneurs are serial problem solvers. They can take limited resources and apply efficient, innovative solutions to solve those problems. We expect you to act in the same way and to establish a sense of ownership over the impact that your role has on the larger organization.

Respect: We always strive to show respect to one another. Respect can take many forms but ultimately it is the sum of your actions, your words and your attitude that demonstrate the level of respect you have for our customers and for your colleagues.

Benefits
