WAYS TO SAVE MONEY

KNOW YOUR ENTITLEMENTS

Pensioner Concession Cards

These entitle the holder to pensioner discounts available in many businesses and also on government bills including Rates, Car Registration on one car, Electricity, rail travel within Qld, Government approved medical prescriptions at pharmacies and more. Ask if a pensioner discount is available.

Low Income Health Care Cards

For those eligible through Centrelink who are not on a pension, these entitle the holder to discounts on government approved prescriptions at pharmaces.

Seniors Cards and Seniors Business Cards

Seniors business cards are for those over 60 and Seniors Cards are for those over 65. Seniors Cards offer more benefits than Seniors Business Cards. You just need to ask at businesses if they offer Seniors Discounts.
