READY, SET, STAY! NSW Businesses Encouraged to Sign Up for New Voucher Programs

Eligible accommodation providers across the Yass Valley can now register to take part in two of the NSW Government’s new voucher programs, Parents NSW and Stay NSW. Both programs will be implemented using the existing Dine & Discover NSW infrastructure.

Member for Goulburn Wendy Tuckerman said families will be able to access the Parents NSW vouchers and Stay NSW vouchers from February. “Eligible customers will soon be able to redeem their $250 worth of Parents NSW vouchers and $50 Stay NSW vouchers with registered Stay NSW businesses, which is a huge win for the accommodation and tourism sectors which have been especially hard hit by the pandemic.

“To take part in the two programs, businesses only have to register once through Service NSW. Once approved, all accommodation providers need to do is simply download the Service NSW for Business app and start scanning vouchers,” Mrs Tuckerman said.

Businesses will be paid within ten days after redeeming a voucher. Customers can pool multiple Stay NSW vouchers with friends or family for the same booking at registered accommodation providers, big or small.

Parents NSW vouchers can be combined and used to redeem $250 off your accommodation account. Bookings made through third party providers such as online booking platforms and travel agents are not included in the program. Participating businesses will be able to redeem vouchers seven days a week, including public holidays. Customers will be able to search for participating accommodation providers on the easy-to-use hotel finder.

Discover NSW registered businesses do not have to re-register to accept Parents NSW vouchers, but can still register if they have yet to do so. For more information on how to register a business, visit https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/register-business-stay-nsw-vouchers
