Cardholder – is a person with a disability, whose application for a Companion Card has been successful, and whose photograph and details appear on a Companion Card.
Companion – is used to describe a paid or unpaid assistant or carer, or a family carer who provides attendant care support to a cardholder, which enables them to participate in most community activities.
Affiliate – is used to describe an organisation, business or outlets that charge an admission or participation fee, and have officially registered with the Companion Card program by completing the Organisation and

Attendant Care Support – this includes significant assistance with mobility, communication, self-care, or learning, planning and thinking where the use of aids, equipment or alternative strategies do not enable the person to carry out these tasks independently.
Companion Ticket – is a second ticket or admission issued for a companion, free-of-charge, when it is essential for the cardholder to receive attendant care support in order to participate at a venue or activity.
