Have you taken advantage of the Queensland Government’s Seniors Cards? There are several types of cards for people aged 65 or older.
The basic Seniors Card is designed to ease cost-of-living pressures, offering concessions on energy, property and transport costs as well as relief on medical and disability costs. It also offers discounts on goods and services at participating Queensland businesses and access to the Senior Shopper Service which offers the best price on a range of goods and services.
There is also the Seniors Card +go which offers the same concessions and discounts as above, but also functions as a Go Card on Translink public transport.
If you’re not eligible for the Queensland Seniors Card or Seniors Card +go, you may still be eligible for the Seniors Business Discount Card, which offers discounts on goods and services at participating outlets throughout Queensland and access to the free Senior Shopper service.
There is eligibility criteria to apply for a card. Applications can be done online or by post, over the phone on 13 74 68 or at the Queensland Government Service Centre at 33 Charlotte St, Brisbane City.
For more information on Seniors Cards visit bit.ly/4a08Eq4 or phone 13 74 68.
BEWARE: The Queensland Government is aware of an unofficial website which charges applicants a fee in exchange for a Seniors Card. Please note the Seniors Card is free and you will never be requested to pay a fee. If you have provided payment to an unofficial website, you should contact your bank immediately and consider making a report to Scamwatch.
