About OPRA

For those who serve.By those who serve.

OPRA is a non-profit organization partnering with leading businesses to honor those who take personal risks to protect society and their fellow citizens. The program provides exclusive benefits and discounts for personnel and conscripts in the Armed Forces, first responders, rescue service personnel and veterans.

Our goals

  • Establish a culture that better appreciates those who take risks for society.
  • Contribute to increased recruitment in frontline professions and rescue services.
  • Recognize exemplary role models through the OPRA gratitude fund.

Free access

Access to OPRA is free. Some of our partners contribute to ongoing operations through paid exposure or transactions made via OPRA.

The OPRA team would like to thank all colleagues who have supported the launch of OPRA. Special thanks go to the Norwegian Police Union and the Norwegian Officers' and Specialists' Union.

How does it work?

Discounts are provided through OPRA's own agreements on the logged-in website or app. When shopping in a physical store, present your OPRA ID from the profile page.

OPRA gratitude fund

Our society survives on the backs of everyday heroes who do far more than can reasonably be expected of them. To shine a light on this effort, OPRA has established the Gratitude Fund.

Each year, we award the «Valor Spear», a specially designed statuette, together with a grant of NOK 15,000 to one frontline individual who has shown extraordinary courage, compassion or dedication.

Donations from the fund

2025: NOK 15,000 donated to the family of Adrian Willyson Brask.

2025: NOK 10,000 donated to the family of Markus Botnen.

The total amount donated will vary based on the funds available at the time of the donation.
