WESTERN Australian Seniors Card members are being encouraged to ensure they are registered to receive the 2024 Cost of Living Rebate.

The annual rebate is a state government initiative offered to WA Seniors Card members to assist with cost-of-living pressures.

WA Seniors Card members must register by 31 May 2024 to receive this year’s payment, which will be made in late July.

Previously registered members do not need to re-register unless their bank details or circumstances have changed.

Last year, singles received a payment of $104 and couples received $156.

In addition to the rebate, the WA Seniors Card offers some of the most valuable concessions and rebates in Australia, including free off-peak public transport, concessions on local government rates and water service charges, and the $400 Safety and Security rebate.

WA Seniors Card members can apply for the rebate by registering for online access to their account or by downloading an application form on the WA Seniors Card website.

Current members can check if they are already registered to receive this year’s payment by contacting the WA Seniors Card Centre on 1800 671 233 or info@seniorscard.wa.gov.au
