Team Wendy has expanded access to its product lineup by integrating GovX verification directly into its online store, making it easier for eligible military, first responders, and search-and-rescue professionals to receive a standing discount without the usual friction.
The Cleveland-based manufacturer announced that its full range of ballistic helmets, bump helmets, and accessories is now available through GovX. Qualified buyers can receive 10% off their order after completing a quick verification during checkout on TeamWendy.com or by starting their purchase through GovX and being directed to the Team Wendy storefront.
Streamlined Access to a Longstanding Program
Team Wendy has offered pricing incentives to active duty service members, veterans, law enforcement, fire personnel, and SAR teams for years. The difference now is speed and simplicity. With GovX verification built directly into the checkout process, eligible customers can confirm their status in a few clicks and have the discount applied automatically. There is no need to email documentation or request a code.
According to Kevin Hatgas, Digital Marketing Manager at Team Wendy, the goal was to remove friction from a process that supports professionals who rely on the company’s gear in real-world conditions.
“Our focus is building head protection systems people can trust when the stakes are high,” Hatgas said. “We wanted the discount process to be as dependable as our gear—fast verification, automatic savings, no extra steps. GovX lets us meet customers where they are.”
Once verified, the 10% discount can be reused on future purchases by logging in through GovX, which simplifies repeat ordering for individuals and teams who rely on the platform.
Full Product Line Included
The GovX integration applies across Team Wendy’s entire catalog. That includes flagship ballistic helmet systems, bump helmets, and a wide range of mission-driven accessories. Recent product releases are also part of the offering, including the RIFLETECH rifle-rated ballistic helmet and purpose-built models like the EXFIL Rescuer and EXFIL Maritime Rescuer, which were designed specifically for land and water-based search-and-rescue operations.
Beyond helmets, the lineup covers the components that support operational customization: liner systems, retention systems, helmet covers, face shields, and rail-mounted accessories. The result is a complete ecosystem that allows users to configure protection based on role, environment, and mission requirements.
Built Around Protection and Research
Team Wendy has been focused on head protection innovation since its founding in 1997. The company, now part of the Avon Technologies PLC family of brands, was established in memory of Wendy Moore, who died from a traumatic brain injury following a ski accident. That origin continues to shape the company’s emphasis on TBI prevention and helmet system design.
Over time, Team Wendy has become a known supplier to military units, law enforcement agencies, and search-and-rescue teams, while also supporting users in adventure and technical environments. Its product development centers on improving protection, comfort, and adaptability without compromising reliability.
How to Access the Discount
Eligible buyers have two straightforward paths. They can complete GovX verification during checkout on TeamWendy.com, where the discount is applied automatically, or they can start on GovX and follow the link to Team Wendy’s online store to finish their purchase. In both cases, verification is handled quickly, and the savings are tied to the customer’s GovX account for future use.
For those already using GovX for other brands, the experience will feel familiar. For first-time users, the process is built to be fast and low-friction, with approval handled during checkout.
