Chery (Great Australian Pods)<p>PSA Seniors & MyWay+</p><p>Since the introduction of the new MyWay+ ticketing system in November 2024, ACT Seniors Card holders have been able to show bus drivers or customer service officers their card to travel for free on public transport.</p><p>This initiative is coming to an end in June and seniors will be required to obtain a MyWay+ ticket or set up an account to travel. </p><p>There are several ways for this to be done by using your ACT Seniors Card to obtain a concessional fare:</p><p>Obtaining a physical MyWay+ card at a MyWay+ retail agent. You show the retail agent your ACT Seniors Card, advise what concession you are entitled to (60-69 or 70+) and request a physical card. Using this option does not require the set up of a MyWay+ account on a device and you can simply tap on and off as you travel anonymously. You can see a list of the current retail agents below or visit the Transport Canberra website for one near you.<br>Purchasing a printed ticket. This can be done at a ticket vending machine at a bus station or at light rail stops. Over 70's will be required to pay a fare using this option as there is no option for a free ticket.<br>Use a Mastercard or Visa. This will not allow you to travel with the ACT Seniors Card concession unless you link it to a MyWay+ account.<br>Set up an MyWay+ account and link your ACT Seniors Card. While this may sound complicated, Transport Canberra have committed to helping ACT Seniors Card holders set up their accounts in person by attending the COTA ACT outreach service at ACT Libraries in May. The locations and dates are as follows:-</p><p>TUGGERANONG LIBRARY - 15 MAY, 10AM-12PM<br>WODEN LIBRARY - 22 MAY, 10AM-12PM<br>Transport Canberra can also provide assistance setting up accounts over the phone by calling 6207 7711 or you can visit their website to see their detailed tutorial videos. </p><p>A reminder that when you travel on a concession fare on public transport you need to have your ACT Seniors Card with you to show you are eligible for the concession. </p><p>If you have questions relating to your ACT Seniors Card or discounts - please contact the COTA ACT office on 6282 3777. <br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/PSA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PSA</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Seniors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Seniors</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/MyWay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MyWay</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/PublicTransport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PublicTransport</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Canberra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canberra</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ACT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ACT</span></a></p>
