State Seniors Cards 065-01050000

The State Seniors Card is a program which provides seniors aged 60 years and over, with savings on recreational, health, business and State Government benefits throughout Australia. The State Seniors Card is not a product administered by Services Australia. It shouldn't be confused with the Commonwealth Seniors Health Card (CSHC) which is administered by the department. Only general information can be given by department staff. Anyone wishing to apply for a card must contact their State/Territory government.

Background

The State Seniors Card encourages seniors to be more active in the community and enhance their lifestyle choices. Some of the benefits are accessed through restaurants, travel agencies, clothing establishments, and even from local businesses, for example hairdressers, barbers, plus many more. Most businesses are encouraged to display the logo in their window. Most states issue directories which list participating businesses direct to card holders. Not all businesses advertise in this directory.

Note: the concessions can also vary from state to state.

The look of the State Seniors Card has changed since its inception so that it is easier to use interstate. Usage interstate is restricted to businesses only, not State Government concessions. The map of Australia symbol signifies a business that offers a discount to all Australian card holders.
