Taxi Subsidy Schemes (also known as TSS, MPTP, TTSS, TUSS, or SATSS, depending on your state or territory) are government programs designed to make travel more affordable for people with disabilities. Eligible passengers receive a significant discount on taxi fares when travelling with registered operators like GMCabs. These programs ensure that individuals who cannot easily use public transport can still travel independently with dignity.
