The previously-announced second round of Dine and Discover vouchers were released starting Friday, November 26 and will be in your Service NSW App by Friday, December 3 at the latest, NSW Dominic Perrottet announced last week.
The two new vouchers, one for Dine and one for Discover, are each worth $25. This brings the total available through the Dine and Discover programme to $150 per NSW citizen, which they can use up until June 2022.
Two more Dine & Discover vouchers will be hitting wallets from today. If you’ve not registered yet, you’ll get all six vouchers once you sign up in the @ServiceNSW app. It’s part of our economic recovery package and we know it works, so get out and support a local business. pic.twitter.com/us7eN3pNCo

The Premier had announced the new round of vouchers at a press conference two months ago, in which he gave more details on the government’s economic recovery strategy, including that all NSW residents will get two more vouchers as part of the plan.
“We know that Dine & Discover vouchers had an incredibly successful and incredibly positive use by close to 5 million people across our state, so today we are doubling down to make additional $25 vouchers,” the Premier had said.
“We know these vouchers have injected millions of dollars into the New South Wales economy. They’ve been incredibly successful and popular from Ballina to Balmain, from Byron to Broken Hill. People right across the state have gone out and used these vouchers and importantly spent more.”
Treasurer Matt Kean had said that the additional $250 million investment by the NSW Government would help businesses recover from months of restrictions and encourage people to enjoy what they love most.
“We experienced the success of the Dine & Discover program when we reopened last time, which is why we are doubling down efforts,” Kean said.
The Dine and Discover scheme initially kicked off in late March, offering residents four $25 vouchers to spend — two for hospitality venues and two for cultural venues.
Every NSW resident aged 18 and over is eligible to receive the six $25 vouchers — three to be used at restaurants, cafes, clubs and other food venues and three to be used at performing arts, cinemas and amusement parks. If they have yet to apply for the vouchers via the Service NSW website, they still can before June 2022 and will receive all six $25 vouchers at once. Participating businesses don’t need to reapply.
