Informational purpose
Articles are provided for general informational purposes. They can help readers understand common processes and terminology, but they do not constitute an official grant decision, legal advice, financial advice or a guarantee that an application will be approved or paid.
No government affiliation
The website is not SASSA, the South African government, Postbank or another government contractor. Official decisions and personal account information must be obtained through the relevant official service.
Accuracy and changes
We aim to keep information useful and accurate, but public rules, payment arrangements, grant amounts, eligibility requirements, websites and contact channels can change. Check time-sensitive information with an official source. See our Editorial Policy and Corrections Policy.
Acceptable use
You may not misuse the website to distribute malware, attempt unauthorised access, interfere with its operation, impersonate another person, harvest personal information or use its content in a misleading way.
External links
Links to government departments, banks, social networks and other third parties are provided for convenience and context. We do not control those external websites and their own terms and policies apply.
