Various Grants Catering to Diverse Needs
Sassa administers a range of grants every month, catering to diverse needs, including Older Persons Grants, Disability Grants, Child Support Grants, Foster Child Grants, War Veterans Grants, and Care Dependency Grants.

Convenient Ways to Receive Your Grant

Additionally, Sassa grants are available at selected retailers nationwide, such as Pick n Pay, Shoprite, Boxer stores, Usave stores, and Checkers, ensuring easy access for grant recipients. Mobile cash pay points are also accessible for grant beneficiaries, although this method has limited flexibility and funds are available for only a few hours during specific payment cycles.
