Social Grant Payment Dates for April 2025
The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has released the payment schedule for social grants for April 2025.
Beneficiaries are urged to take note of the dates to ensure timely access to their funds.
“Older Persons Grants will be paid from 2 April 2025. Beneficiaries who receive Child Support Grants or Foster Care Grants linked to their accounts will also have access to these funds on the same day. Disability Grants will be disbursed on 3 April 2025, including any linked grants. All other grants, including Child Support and Foster Care Grants, will be available from 4 April 2025,” the agency stated.
SASSA reminds beneficiaries that they have the option to open bank accounts with financial institutions of their choice.
Beneficiaries still using the Gold SASSA card to receive their grants are reminded that the deadline for swapping to the black Postbank card is on April 30.
This provides greater control over their funds and allows for convenient collection. Meanwhile, the SASSA/SAPO card remains a valid debit card that can be used at ATMs and major retailers, including SPAR, Checkers, Shoprite, Boxer, Pick n Pay, and Cambridge.
Beneficiaries are advised to keep their cards and PINs secure and never share their PIN with anyone to prevent fraud.
