Hello Friend, 

A new era for the SuperGold Card

New Zealand First was excited this week to announce major upgrades to the SuperGold Card, including a new website and smartphone app, and the addition hundreds of new SuperGold partners offering discounts throughout the country to our nation’s 750,000 seniors.

Since its launch in August 2007, this flagship New Zealand First initiative has helped hundreds of thousands of New Zealand seniors, especially those living on a fixed income, stretch their dollar further.

However, the previous National Government’s 9-year-long neglect of the initiative meant that many of the Card’s benefits could not be easily accessed, particularly for those in the regions.

For New Zealand First, one of our first orders of the day in government was the further development of the SuperGold Card to bring it into the 21^st century and ensure seniors can realise its full benefits.

Through $7.7m of investment secured in Budget 2019, two new digital platforms have been launched. The redeveloped website is easier to use, with updated business listings and information about the Card’s benefits, and the new SuperGold app will ensure the benefits of the SuperGold Card can be more easily accessed, displaying to the user all of the local businesses and services offering SuperGold Card discounts.

500 new SuperGold Card partners have also been brought on board, including Qantas, Countdown, Spark and The Warehouse, who will offer nationwide discounts to cardholders. These new partners bring the total number of businesses offer SuperGold discounts to over 10,000.

You can find the new website at: https://www.supergold.govt.nz/. You can access the SuperGold app on your Android smartphone through the Google Play Store, or if you own an iPhone, on the App Store.
