More savings are now on offer for Tweed seniors with more than a dozen additional local businesses signing up to the NSW Seniors Card program to offer discounted products and services.
Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said a recent campaign by the NSW Government successfully increased the number of participating businesses statewide by more than 28%, with a total of 97 local businesses now offering discounts to Seniors Card members.
“Being able to save on the cost of living when you have a fixed income is important and the Seniors Card is bringing more local discounts to our community than ever before,” Mr Provest said.
A recent survey of 35,000 Seniors Card members revealed NSW seniors are more likely to try a new business if it offers a Seniors Card discount or deal, and 70 per cent of seniors would return to a business if it offered a Seniors Card discount.
“More than 90 per cent of eligible older people across NSW are Seniors Card members, including 31,715 card holders in Tweed,” Mr Provest added.
“I urge all businesses in Tweed to join and see how the Seniors Card program can benefit your business by building a loyal customer base among seniors, while supporting our community.”
