How much is annual membership?

£6.95 per year - less than 60p a month.

Why is an annual membership required?

Annual membership will play a vital role in growing the number of discounts and services available to you. Although the number of senior discounts has been growing steadily, the cost associated with sourcing new discounts is expensive. Your contribution will allow Seniors Discounts to actively pursue new discounts and opportunities on your behalf and aid in further developing the website.

Reasons to join:


PLUS – If you join now you will only require 1 membership per household. Your spouse or partner can use your membership for free. Reducing the cost to less than 30p per month.

What is included in my annual membership?

Once you join as an annual member you will be provided with a username and password. This will give you access to secure areas of the website where you will be able to access discounts and promotional offers from a growing number of businesses.

You will benefit from unlimited use of Seniors Discounts Price Check. The average saving for people who have requested a Price Check on electrical goods is £56.50 or the equivalent of 8 years membership. The saving made by one member who requested a Price Check on a car was £1008.00.

Please note: The purpose of Seniors Discounts Price Check is to make sure you're always getting the best price. We cannot guarantee our price review service will beat your quote every time, however, if we can't you can feel rest assured you're paying the best price currently available.

As a member you will also receive an improved version of the monthly email newsletter. It will serve as your trusted guide to:

Do I have to be over a certain age to join?

Membership is open to anyone 50 years and older. Although someone who has just turned 50 may not consider themself to be a senior citizen, Seniors Discounts has an ever growing number of business willing to offer people 50 years and upwards a discount for shopping with them.

Please Note: Some of the discounts available through Seniors Discounts commence at 60+ years. If you're under 60 you may be unable to use some discounts.

Where do I sign up?

To join please click here.

The link takes you to a sign up page so you can purchase your membership subscription by debit or credit card through the highly secure and encrypted payment area.

Is there a free newsletter?

Yes. There will continue to be a free monthly newsletter which will include information on discounts and ways for you to save, although this will be a much lighter version of the paid membership. You will be kept up to date with the latest discount offerings, however you will only be able to benefit from the discounts if you're a paying member.

The majority of the Seniors Discounts website will also still remain free to use. The decision will be 100% yours as to whether you become a paying member and take advantage of the additional benefits. The free newsletter may be ideal for the individual who would like to keep up to date with discounts becoming available but without the cost.

How do I pay for annual membership?

Payments can be made using a debit or credit card through a highly secure section of the website. The payment process is simple, even for people who have never made a purchase over the internet before. On completion of the transaction you will receive an email receipt for the transaction, confirming your subscription. You will also receive a copy of the subscription’s terms and payment details.

Payment by cheque or postal order is not available at this time. The main reason being Seniors Discounts is currently operated and managed by myself, Daniel Wilson, I don’t have a team of people to process payments. Offering multiple payment methods (cheque, postal orders, direct debit, etc) may result in a considerable amount of time taken up to process payments rather than sourcing discounts, new deals and improving the services available to you. As Seniors Discounts grows I expect to be able to cater for all types of payments.

If you have difficulty with PayPal or have any concerns regarding payment please email me at info@seniorsdiscounts.co.uk

Is it safe to make payments over the internet?

Yes as long as you're careful and you trust the website you are purchasing through.

Seniors Discounts is using a service called Paypal to complete transactions. The reason we are using Paypal is they offer industry leading safeguards to ensure your money and information stays safe. The technology used to keep your credit or debit card details secure when completing the transaction to become a member is the highest level of security commerically available.

PayPal works 24/7 to help safeguard your privacy and protect your identity by using advanced technology and vigilant monitoring. If you would like more information on how PayPal protects your privacy to prevent identity theft, stop fraud and protect your purchases please visit PayPal Security
