At the time of writing, the SRD grant amount is R350, though this could change depending on your eligibility and circumstances.

How to Add Your Banking Details for the SRD Grant​

When applying for the SASSA grant, you must meet specific requirements. The banking information you provide is strictly confidential and is only shared between your bank and SASSA. It is crucial that you do not share this information with anyone else.

Unlike some other grants, you cannot apply for the SASSA SRD R350 grant on your own without following the proper steps. Below is a simple guide to successfully submitting your banking details:

  1. Visit the official SASSA website: Go to www.srd.sassa.gov.za.
  2. Scroll to the "How do I change my banking details?" section.
  3. Enter your South African ID number.
  4. Receive a secure SMS link: SASSA will send a unique and secure link to your registered mobile number.
  5. Click the link and follow the instructions carefully.

Important Note:​

Make sure to complete this process promptly. If you receive an SMS from SASSA, check your junk or spam folder if you don’t see it in your inbox. You must respond within 24 hours to avoid delays in processing your request.

How to Receive Your SASSA R350 Grant Payments​

Once approved, you can receive your R350 grant in various ways. Here’s how you can collect your funds:

If you don’t have a bank account, you can still receive your grant through CashSend services. This method allows you to withdraw your funds using your ID number and phone number at participating ATMs or retailers.

3. Pick n Pay, Boxer, and Checkers Stores​

SASSA beneficiaries can also collect their R350 grant at Pick n Pay, Boxer, and Checkers stores across South Africa. These stores have partnered with SASSA to make grant payments more accessible.

4. Shoprite Group Stores​

Great news for beneficiaries—SASSA grants are now available at over 1,286 Shoprite Group supermarkets, including:

  • Shoprite
  • USave
  • OK Foods
  • Checkers
To collect your grant at these stores, simply provide your ID number and registered mobile number at the checkout counter. This process helps prevent fraud and ensures that only the rightful beneficiary receives the funds.
