You can also use a SASSA card to get cash from ATMs or stores like Pick ‘n Pay and Shoprite.
If you don’t have a bank account you can go to cash pay points but some of these might not be safe if they are in remote areas.
There’s also a new mobile money option for people who know how to use technology.
To avoid payment delays you should keep your bank details up to date. You can do this online at the SASSA website or visit a SASSA office in person. To check if your payment is ready you can go to srd.sassa.gov.za or send a message on WhatsApp to 082 046 8553.
Common Payment Problems and How to Avoid Them
If your SASSA payment stops it might be because your bank details are wrong or SASSA needs to check who you are. Watch out for fraud because it can affect your payments. Remember SASSA only allows one deduction each month. This deduction can’t be more than 10% of your money. If you notice any problems you need to tell SASSA quickly. You can do this at their office or send an SMS to 34548. In the SMS include your ID number and the name of your provider. If your SRD status shows as “referred” you should go online to confirm your identity. This will help you get your payment faster.
