The Accord Card Scheme
The Accord Card is Aberdeen City Council's existing smartcard scheme. From April 2006 the Scottish Executive launched a National Entitlement Card to carry national services and this has been combined with the Accord Card.
This combined card is referred to as the Accord / National Entitlement Card. It's a great way to access a variety of local and national services.
Listed below are all the services currently carried on the Accord / National Entitlement Card.
- Membership and access card for Aberdeen Sports Village
- Cashless Catering and vending in all Aberdeen City Secondary Schools,
- Free School Meal entitlement,
- Young Scot Membership for those aged 12 to 26,
- Young Person's Travel Concession,
- Scotland Wide Free Bus Travel for Older and Disabled Persons,
- National Entitlement Card,
