SASSA Money Withdrawal Advice
Beneficiaries don’t have to pick up their grant payment on the date it’s scheduled to be paid out.
There are various methods available for beneficiaries to collect their grants.
Payment options are ATMs and retail stores, which include Shoprite Checkers, U-save, Pick n Pay and Boxer stores.
Beneficiaries should provide SASSA with their bank account details, including Name, branch code, and account number. Once the details have been verified, SASSA will transfer the grant money directly into the beneficiary’s account on the designated payment date.
You are required to provide your ID and cellphone numbers. Please use one cellphone number to process everything concerning the SASSA application to prevent fraudulent activity.
Recipients are advised against collecting their SRD grant payments at the South African Post Office (SAPO), as it is no longer an authorized facility for grant payment collection.
