The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has officially announced the grant payment dates for September 2025. Make sure you know when to expect your payments to avoid any confusion.
SASSA September 2025 Payment Schedule:
- Old Age Grant: Tuesday, 2 September 2025
- Disability Grant: Wednesday, 3 September 2025
- Child Grant and Other Grants: Thursday, 4 September 2025
SASSA is urging all beneficiaries not to rush to withdraw their grant money all at once on the first day of payment. Withdrawing funds gradually as needed, or using your SASSA card to pay directly for goods and services, helps to prevent overcrowding at pay points and ATMs. It also reduces the risk of theft when carrying large sums of cash.
