Book Intercape Pensioner Discount
If you are 60 or older you can get a 15% Intercape pensioner discount (aka "Senior Citizens discount) on flexi and full flexi pay classes of tickets (the pensioner discount is not available on saver pay class tickets).. You need to show your ID document at the point of purchase (youngsters, if you're feeling left out see the 15% Youth Discount for those travelling with an adult and who are up to 11 years old, or the Intercape student discount).
Use the booking engine above to book an Intercape ticket with a pensioner discount; to ensure the pensioner discount is applied you must select "Senior Citizen 60+ (15% with ID)" from the dropdown menu next to "Discount:", as illustrated in the image below.
If you have selected a saver pay class ticket, you will notice that there isn't an option to select a Senior Citizen Discount; this is because Senior Citizen discounts are only available for Flexi and Full Flexi ticket pay classes.
Pensioners can earn vouchers for reviews
Pensioners who book their ride on this website, may email a writeup of their bus trip and photo to rob@southafrica.to, and we will send you a small voucher to discount their next bus journey booked through us.
Other opportunities
Pensioners might alternatively make use of other Intercape special deals like the Frequent Traveller Club, Sanlam Reality Discount if they're a member of Sanlam Reality or have Sanlam Wealth Bonus Benefits, Momentum Multiply benefits if they are a member, earn EBucks when buying with an FNB Easy; credit card or FNB Gold credit card, see what their EdgarsClub discount is.
Intercape Shoprite Pensioner Discounts
In this deal from 2017 pensioners could buy Intercape bus tickets at Shoprite money market counters with double the usual pensioner discount (a massive 30% compared to the usual 15% pensioner discount). Keep your eye on their social media pages to see whether they run with it again (especially Facebook).
Other ways of reducing costs
Travel on Intercape Budgetliner or Big Sky Intercity; use the saver option where it makes sense (but this will cost you if you have to change).
