booklet features more than 150 exclusive discounts and benefits that align with
members' interests and experiences

The Cook Labor Government has marked WA Seniors Week 2026 with a new-look
discount guide for Western Australian seniors, offering a wide range of
discounts on goods and services from hundreds of
generous businesses.
The WA Seniors Card Members 2026-27 Guide, previously known as the WA
Seniors Card Discount Directory, has evolved into a lifestyle-focused booklet
featuring more than 150 exclusive discounts and benefits that align with
members' interests and experiences.
Discounts from a long list of metropolitan and regional
business encourage seniors to stay connected, engaged, and active in their
communities. It also encourages seniors to buy and shop locally, which benefits
local businesses and the State's economy.
Launched at Have a
Go Day and during Seniors Week, which runs from 8 -15 November, the guide is
part of the Cook Labor Government's commitment to creating age-friendly
communities where older Western Australians feel empowered and supported.
The guide is just one of the many benefits of the WA Seniors Card
program, which offers some of the most valuable State Government concessions
and rebates in the country.
WA Seniors Card members have access to free off-peak public
transport, concessions on local government rates and water service charges, the
one-off $400 payment for the Safety and Security Rebate and a Cost of Living
Rebate which has provided more than $496.1 million assistance since its introduction.
Copies of the hard-copy guide can be found at selected
libraries, community resource centres or from the offices of local members of
Parliament. The full list of discount offers is available at www.seniorscard.wa.gov.au/discounts.
WA Seniors Card members can request a copy to be posted directly
by contacting the WA Seniors Card Centre on 1800 671 233 or emailing info@seniorscard.wa.gov.au
Comments attributed to Aged
Care and Seniors Minister Simone McGurk:
"The new and improved WA Seniors Card Members Guide is a fantastic
resource for older Western Australians that helps reduce the cost-of-living
through government concessions and a wide range of discounts offered by
participating businesses.
"This guide would not be possible without the generosity of many
businesses across our State, and I would like to acknowledge their
contributions to the WA economy. I strongly encourage everyone to support our
local businesses where possible.
"WA Seniors Card members continue to have access to a valuable
range of State Government concessions and rebates. This includes free off-peak
public transport, and concessions on your local government rates and water
service charges.
"WA is proud to be the only State that delivers a
targeted annual Cost of Living Rebate through the Seniors Card Program, with
singles receiving a payment of $114.20 and couples receiving $171.30 this year."
