Important Notes About Sassa Payments
- Sassa does not pay grants on weekends or public holidays.
- If the scheduled payment date falls on a weekend/public holiday, payments will shift to the next working day.
- For September 2025, grants will be paid on consecutive days, meaning beneficiaries will not experience extended delays.
- Beneficiaries are reminded that they don’t need to withdraw funds immediately. Money will remain safely in their accounts until needed.
This schedule ensures smoother payments and helps avoid overcrowding at pay points.
