NSW Seniors Card goes digital on 30th anniversary

1 min read

The NSW Government is marking 30 years of the Seniors Card by making it available via the Service NSW app.

Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government, Victor Dominello, said the digital Seniors and Seniors Savers Cards will make life easier for older people by taking the hassle out of everyday transactions.

“Seniors have already embraced the Service NSW app through programs like Dine & Discover NSW and the Digital Driver Licence, and this digital option provides them with greater choice and flexibility,” he said.

The decision follows a pilot with 4,000 participants, with the vast majority giving approval.

The NSW Seniors Card and Seniors Savers Card has been issued to 1.8 million seniors enabling them to access discounts and rebates at more than 6,500 shops, travel, entertainment and professional services.

The digital cards will be opt-in only and customers will continue to receive a physical card.
