Verification for the NHS discount is quick and straightforward.

1. Using your NHS email
• If you apply with a valid @nhs.uk email address, verification is usually instant.
• You’ll receive an email shortly after submitting your details with your code and instructions.

2. If extra proof is required
• In some cases (e.g. if your NHS trust uses a different domain), you may be asked for additional proof such as a payslip or staff ID.
• When this happens, verification may take longer while the documents are checked.

3. Typical timeframes
• Most NHS discount codes are issued within minutes.
• If manual review is needed, it can take up to 24–48 hours.

👉 Once verified, your discount code can be used right away across one-off, bulk, and subscription purchases with a minimum spend of £60.
