Avoid post office for Sassa grants in May
Sassa recipients still to collect May grants should avoid the Post Office
South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) beneficiaries who collect their payouts at the South African Post Office (SAPO) are requested to rather withdraw their grant at a supermarket or ATM in May.
While the majority of May’s Sassa grants have been issued, those who still plan to withdraw will have to use channels outside of the post office.

For beneficiaries who use the gold Sassa card issued by Postbank, withdrawals at a supermarket are free of commission.
They can also swipe the card to pay for any purchases, with all swipes free of commission.
A beneficiary therefore receives the full value of the grant when using a supermarket, down to the last cent.
The gold card can be used at all ATMs in South Africa. Where an ATM is used, the bank owning the ATM will levy a fee.
