Applying for a Seniors Card

The Victorian Seniors Card program is a free program available to all eligible Victorians.

To be eligible for a Victorian Seniors Card you must:

  • be 60 years of age or older
  • be an Australian citizen
  • live primarily in Victoria.

The Seniors Card program is managed by a Victorian Government team called Seniors Online. This is the point of contact for all issues related to the Seniors Card program, including:

  • applications
  • changes of address
  • replacement cards
  • discounts
  • cancelling a card.

Most issues, including applications, can be managed quickly via the website. If you do not have access to the website, contact 1300 79 72 10 between 9 am and 2 pm Monday to Friday.

COTA Victoria has recently been made aware of a scam involving a business offering to help people to apply for a Seniors Card for a fee. We remind you that the program is free and that you should not be paying a fee to receive a card or the associated discounts.

If you have any concerns about this, please contact Seniors Online directly via phone or email.
