The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has officially confirmed the payment dates for social grants for September 2025:
- Old Age Grant: Tuesday, 2 September 2025[1]
- Disability Grant: Wednesday, 3 September 2025[1]
- All other grants (including Child Support): Thursday, 4 September 2025[1]
SASSA recommends that beneficiaries do not rush to withdraw their grants all on the first payout day. Social grant funds remain available in your account until you need them, and beneficiaries are encouraged to withdraw as required or use their SASSA card for direct purchases to help reduce crowding at pay points and improve safety[1].
For any queries or assistance, beneficiaries can contact SASSA on the toll-free line 0800 60 10 11 or visit their nearest SASSA office[2].
