Your Guide to Top Senior Discounts and Benefits in SG

Published on 07 Aug 2025

Getting older comes with its perks, especially in Singapore where seniors enjoy plenty of exclusive discounts. From cheaper groceries and movie tickets, to special rates at family attractions and free recreational activities, there’s so much to look forward to.

This guide rounds up the best senior discounts and perks you can tap on in your golden years. Get ready to shop, eat, stay active and explore for much less!

Who is Eligible for Senior Citizen Discounts in Singapore?

In Singapore, you’ll typically enjoy senior citizen discounts once you turn 60 years old. Some businesses may offer special senior rates to those as young as 50, so it often pays to check with the staff when you’re out and about.

These discounts are Singapore’s way of honouring the contributions our elders have made, and a small gesture of appreciation for the years they’ve spent working hard to make Singapore the wonderful home we treasure today.

So go on, treat yourself. You deserve it!

Save on Transport with Senior Concession Fares

If getting around on public transport is part of your routine, then a PAssion Silver Senior Citizen Concessionary Card is a must-have to keep your journeys budget-friendly.

PAssion Silver Concession Card (PASC)

Singapore citizens aged 60 and above can apply for the PAssion Silver Concession Card (PASC). It works like an EZ-Link card and gives you up to 55% off adult fares on trains and basic bus services. 

Here’s what else the card offers:

Longer pedestrian crossing time: This feature allows you to simply tap your card on Green Man+ card readers at selected pedestrian crossings for a longer crossing time.

Exclusive deals: The PASC doubles as a PAssion Card membership, unlocking shopping and dining discounts at over 1,500 shops and restaurants.

Discounted activities: Enjoy special rates on courses, facilities and activities at People’s Association community centres.

Free National Library Board partner membership: PASC cardholders can borrow up to 24 library items without additional fees.

Apply for your PAssion Silver Concession Card at a SimplyGo ticket office, online, or through the SimplyGo app.

Hybrid Concession Pass (HCP)

Heavy commuters can consider purchasing the Hybrid Monthly Concession Pass (HCP) to reduce monthly transport costs even more. For just $58 a month, the HCP gives you unlimited rides on basic bus and train services, making it a smart choice for seniors who are always on the move.

You’ll need to have a valid Senior Concession Card to get the HCP. Pass purchases can be done at any TransitLink ticket office or through the SimplyGo app.
