How to Prepare for Your SASSA Payment
Before payment week, beneficiaries are advised to check that their banking details are correct and that their SASSA card is active. Payments are automatically deposited into your account or made available at ATMs, supermarkets, and post offices. To avoid long queues, consider waiting a day or two after the payment date to collect your funds.
If your payment doesn’t reflect immediately, wait a full business day before contacting SASSA. Occasionally, minor delays occur due to public holidays or system maintenance. Always verify information through official SASSA channels to avoid scams and misinformation.
Safety and Scam Awareness
During payment periods, SASSA warns beneficiaries to stay alert against scammers. SASSA never asks for PIN codes, passwords, or banking details via SMS or social media. Only use verified contact details or visit your nearest SASSA office if you need assistance.
If you suspect fraud or unauthorized deductions from your grant, report it immediately to SASSA’s toll-free number: 0800 60 10 11.
