Applying for a FairPlay voucher

Parents, carers or guardians can apply for a voucher valued up to $150 for their child, which can be used towards membership, registration or participation fees with registered activity providers.

There is a limit of 1 voucher per child per calendar year.

FairPlay vouchers replaces the Get Started Vouchers program. If your child received a Get Started voucher in January 2019, you cannot apply for a FairPlay voucher until January 2020.

1. Check if your child is eligible

You can apply if your child:

• is a Queensland resident aged from 5 to 17 years (inclusive)
• did not receive a Get Started voucher this year
• either:
  • holds, or whose parent, carer or guardian holds, a valid Department of Human Services Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card with the child’s name on it, or
  • is identified by a registered referral agent, who can assist families in genuine financial need to access FairPlay vouchers.

If you don’t meet the eligibility criteria

As part of a limited trial, certain families may be able to submit an expression of interest (EOI) for a FairPlay voucher. Check if you meet the EOI requirements.

2. Make sure your activity is available

Search the activity provider directory to check that:

• your chosen activity is listed
• there is a registered provider near you.

3. Read the terms and conditions

Read and understand the FairPlay voucher application terms and conditions.

4. Access the QGrants online system

You will need a QGrants account to apply – register for an account if you don’t have one.

If you have previously applied for a Get Started voucher, you can use the same QGrants account.
