Collect Your Sassa SRD R350 Grant: The modification has been made to the collection process for the COVID-19 SRD R350 grant previously disbursed at the Post Office. We would like to inform you that the SA Post Office is no longer issuing grants from their branches. It is necessary to explore alternative methods for receiving SASSA SRD R350 payments if you are still eligible for the grant.
Enhanced Payment Options for SASSA SRD R350 Collection
SASSA has expanded the available payment options for beneficiaries with an “approved” status and designated payment date in order to ensure uninterrupted access to your grant. SASSA SRD R350 payments can now be collected at the following merchants and retail outlets:
Payment Options
- Checkers
- Usave
- Shoprite
- Pick ‘n Pay
- Boxer
Please ensure that you have your Identity Document (ID) and the cell phone number you provided during the grant application process when picking up your grant. This number would have received a withdrawal confirmation message.
Explore Alternative Payment Methods
Alternatively, SASSA encourages all grant applicants to update their bank account information on the SASSA SRD R350 grant application system. It is both convenient and secure to use this method. Follow these steps to do so:
- Visit the official SASSA website and access the payment details section.
- Enter your bank details accurately.
- After the payment is transferred, you can withdraw the funds at any time using an ATM.
- The SASSA SRD R350 grant can be changed by following the instructions in our article: “How do I change my SASSA SRD R350’s banking information? ”
