Latest figures show 97 per cent of seniors travelling on public transport are using SuperGold AT HOP cards.
The numbers have been steadily climbing since the introduction of the SuperGold HOP card earlier this year.
Using a HOP card means people can simply board the bus, ferry or train and tag on, making journey times quicker for all customers.
"We are delighted so many people now have, and are using, their SuperGold AT HOP card,” says Peter Paton, Auckland Transport's Customer Experience Manager.
“We had a last-minute flurry of SuperGold applications, which our team has finished processing, so we now have a very high percentage of people eligible for SuperGold using their AT HOP cards."
SuperGold paper tickets are no are longer able to be purchased on board buses, from ticket offices or from Customer Service Centres.
Seniors without an AT HOP card loaded with a SuperGold concession are able to purchase a paper ticket but will have to pay the full adult cash fare.
To continue to take advantage of SuperGold benefits you will need a gold AT HOP card with the concession applied to it.
