SASSA Cardless Grant Withdrawal

Beneficiaries whose Sassa/Postbank gold cards have expired or haven’t been collected will still be able to get their grant money paid out safely and for free at participating retailers such as Shoprite, Usave, Boxer, Pick n Pay and OK.



To use this new payment method, Sassa beneficiaries just need to bring their ID document and Sassa/Postbank card PIN to any of the participating retailers.

Follow these simple steps when withdrawing social grants at participating retailers:

  • Take along your ID document, cellphone and Sassa/Post bank gold card.
  • Go to the till point and provide your ID and cellphone number to the cashier to verify your identity as a grant recipient.
  • A confirmation message will be sent to your cellphone (you do not need airtime for this).
  • Enter your Sassa/Postbank gold card PIN number.
  • The cashier will give you the amount of money requested.
