ACT SENIORS CARD DISCOUNT DIRECTORY 2017-2019
p 6175 5057 centralbygoodwin.org.au 20 GALORE ST, CRACE Foreword
There is no doubt that Seniors are a significant asset to our community. I believe that we need to ensure that we are harnessing the rich diversity and often unacknowledged wealth of experience that seniors bring and contribute to our communities. The ACT Seniors Card is one way the ACT Government helps encourage our seniors to remain connected and be vital members of the community. As a registered ACT Seniors Card holder, I congratulate you on being eligible for the concessions and discounts listed in this Discount Directory. You now have access to a diverse range of discounts and concessions for a wide range of goods and services. I am thankful to all the businesses and organisations who participate in this program, whether it by providing discounts, services or promotions. Each time they do so, it is one more way of thanking our older Canberrans for all they have already contributed. I thank COTA ACT for their continuing efforts and administrative support in developing and producing this essential consumer-related service which provides financial benefits to ACT seniors. Gordon Ramsay MLA Minister for Veterans and Seniors 2017

9 ACT Seniors Card and NSW Opal Card ACT is the first jurisdiction to link with NSW Opal Card. Your ACT Seniors Card number is uniquely linked to your NSW Opal Card which allows ACT Seniors Card holders access to concessional fares in NSW. Please note: When replacing a lost or damaged ACT Seniors Card it is also necessary to reapply for a NSW Opal Card as your Seniors Card number will change. Interstate Travel Information on Senior’s transport concessions in other States and Territories around Australia can be found on the following websites. Opal card NSW https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/ apply-gold-seniorpensioner-opal-card Trains and coaches NSW http://www.nswtrainlink.info/book/ concessions/pensioners Queensland https://translink.com.au/tickets-and-fares/go- card Victoria https://www.ptv.vic.gov.au/tickets/fares/concession/ seniors/ Perth.

It is worth taking your card with you when travelling overseas as it is often accepted by business internationally as a matter of goodwill. All you need to do is ask, particularly in Hong Kong, Singapore, USA, Canada and the UK.
Seniors can be assured that COTA ACT maintains absolute confidentiality with personal information stored on the Seniors Card Database.

11 Consumer Advice When buying goods and services with your Seniors Card, please consider the following: • Obtain the normal quoted price before showing your Seniors Card and requesting a discount. • When making an appointment for a service advertised in this directory as “free consultation” or “discounted service”, please mention that you are a cardholder when making the appointment. • To obtain a discount, you need to present your Seniors Card at the cash register, prior to payment! • If you have difficulties in obtaining discounts from providers listed in this Directory, please advise the Seniors Card Office so that the matter can be investigated. • If you discover a business offering discounts to seniors and they are not listed in the Directory, please advise the Seniors Card Office. The businesses can then be contacted and encouraged to register with the scheme.
12 Using your ACT Seniors MyWay Card on ACTION buses
The combined ACT Seniors Card and MyWay bus card, provides easy access to concession fares for seniors using ACTION bus services. Seniors under 70 will be required to load money on to their card at a participating MyWay recharge agent in order to use it as payment for bus services. Seniors over the age of 70 can travel free. Using your MyWay card is the cheapest way to travel on ACTION buses. Remembering to tag on and off the bus with each travel will ensure you are charged the correct fare. You can save an additional 5% on your already discounted fares by topping up using Autoload (direct debit) or BPAY. Alternatively, you can still access concession cash fares by presenting your co-branded Seniors MyWay Card to the driver when boarding. An interstate Seniors MyWay Card is available for purchase from selected Access Canberra shopfronts for seniors card holders who are not residents of the ACT. For further information about MyWay, phone the information line on 13 17 10 or go to www.transport.act.gov.au
