How to get the best value from my Seniors Card?

The best way to get value from your Seniors Card is to use the card as often as you can, regardless of how small the purchase may be. Other ways include:

  • Regularly review the online Seniors Card Directory for up-to-date offers and discounts.
  • Look for the ‘Seniors Card welcome here’ sign, which is displayed by many business partners.
  • Ask for the normal quoted price before asking for the Seniors Card discount or presenting your card. Remember, discounts generally apply to the recommended retail price, not specials, sale prices or coupon offers.
  • Shop around and compare prices before making a purchase, as the use of the Seniors Card may not necessarily give you the best deal.

Always present your Seniors Card at the time of booking or before making a payment. Most businesses will not accept Seniors Cards once a transaction or service has been completed. Other tips include:

  • When making a booking over the phone, have your Seniors Card handy to quote the number.
  • If a registered business does not display the ‘Seniors Card welcome here’ sign, you might like to suggest that the Seniors Card Program will provide free-of-charge promotional signs that will encourage more seniors to shop there.
  • Take your Seniors Card with you everywhere, even when travelling. All Australian states and territories have a Seniors Card Program and most participating businesses accept cards from interstate. Go to page 8 for more information.
  • Even if a business is not in the Directory, we suggest you ask if a discount is available for Seniors Card holders. If you discover a business offering discounts to seniors that isn’t listed in the directory, please ask them to register with the program so we can promote their offer and business to card holders.
  • The Seniors Card is for personal use only and is not transferable to other people including family members, friends or colleagues.

Can I apply for an Opal Card (NSW card) too?

Note: You must have a state or territory government Seniors Card. Other cards including the National Seniors Card, Queensland Seniors Business Discount Card, Commonwealth Seniors Health Care Card and New Zealand SuperGold Card do not qualify.
