After 65 years of age Gold Cards are issued by Winz. To apply for a card, or for further information on eligibility and discounts, visit www.supergold.govt.nz, email information@supergold.govt.nz or call 0800 25 45 65.
The SuperGold Card is free for all eligible New Zealand residents aged 65 years or over and those under 65 who receive the New Zealand Superannuation or the Veteran’s Pension. It allows holders to travel free on off-peak public transport services across New Zealand.
SuperGold card holders travel free on all off-peak Metro bus and ferry service for seniors and veterans.
Off-peak travel is between 9am and 3pm, and after 6:30pm weekdays and all day on weekends and public holidays. When boarding, simply present your SuperGold card to the driver. If you’re unsure about whether a particular service applies, give us a call.
Please ensure that you have your card with you and note that “offpeak” times are strictly adhered to.

Metrocard is the cheaper and more convenient way to travel by bus. You don’t have to think about having the right change for the bus and it saves you at least 25% on your trips compared to paying cash.
