Apply for a Seniors Card online

Filling out the Seniors Card online application form is the quickest and easiest way to kick off your Seniors Card membership.

Important information

South Australian seniors are being urged to be aware of scam websites which attempt to charge applicants a fee in exchange for a Seniors Card. The misleading websites claim to be ‘officially approved’ and charge applicants a fee of $29 to coordinate the application process.

The legitimate SA Seniors Card is always free of charge and applicants are never requested to pay a fee, or disclose their bank, credit card or PayPal details in exchange for membership.
