NSW residents will reportedly soon receive a $50 accommodation voucher in a bid to bolster the tourism economy.
9 News confirms that as of today, a $50 accommodation voucher will be handed out as part of the NSW Government’s $250 million Stay NSW program. 9 News further confirms that all NSW residents are expected to receive the $50 credit as of March 3 and unlike Dine and Discover vouchers – these $50 accommodation vouchers can be combined together to cover a larger sum.
The voucher initiative is a commitment to bolstering the accommodation industry while getting people excited to travel to NSW.
“This is a win-win for NSW – the vouchers will give hard-hit businesses much-needed stimulus, while also encouraging residents to explore our great state,” Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government Victor Dominello said.
“The Stay NSW program has been expanded and fast-tracked, so people can enjoy a staycation sooner.
“People can pool the $50 Stay NSW Vouchers with relatives or mates, with no redemption limit,” confirmed Mr. Dominello.
More than 1,200 businesses are apparently registered in the voucher program, which runs until October 9, 2022. If you’re an entrepreneur, you can register your business for Stay NSW Vouchers via this link. Businesses will be able to redeem vouchers seven days a week, including public holidays.
People can also apply for their vouchers via the Service NSW mobile app, via the Service NSW website, or by calling 13 77 88.
