Check SASSA Grant Balance in 3 easy ways

 

Once your SASSA grant application has been successfully approved (after you have checked your SASSA status) and paid, your grant money will be available via your chosen payment method (personal bank account, SASSA gold card or cash collection points).

SASSA Grants are paid once a month. Recipients do NOT have to withdraw all their funds straight away – the money will remain available until they are ready to make a withdrawal.

One of the main requirements of SASSA grant holders is for each individual to have a mobile phone to receive updates regarding their status.
