Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using www.sassainfo.co.za (“SassaInfo”, “the website”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), you agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use this website.

We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms and Conditions at any time. Your continued use of the website after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

Independent Information Website — Not Official SASSA

SassaInfo is a privately operated, independent platform. It is not affiliated, endorsed, operated by, or connected in any way to SASSA, the Department of Social Development (DSD), or any government entity.

The website provides general informational content about SASSA grants (including the SRD R370 grant), payment dates, eligibility guidelines, office locations, status checking methods, and appeals processes. This information is compiled from publicly available sources and is intended solely for educational and informational purposes.

Key Nuance: Grant rules, payment schedules, eligibility criteria, and application procedures can change due to government announcements, budget adjustments, or policy reviews. Information on this site may not always reflect the most current official position.

For official SASSA information, applications, status checks, or assistance, please visit www.sassa.gov.za or contact SASSA directly on 0800 60 10 11.

Accuracy of Information

We make every reasonable effort to ensure the information on SassaInfo is accurate, up-to-date, and helpful. Our team regularly reviews content following official SASSA announcements, National Budget publications, and government communications.

However, we cannot guarantee that all information is completely accurate, complete, current, or error-free at all times. Grant amounts, payment dates, eligibility thresholds, and procedures may change without prior notice on this website.

Implication for Users: Decisions about grants, appeals, or financial matters should never rely solely on this site. Always cross-verify with official SASSA channels before acting — especially regarding payment dates, declined applications, or eligibility.

No Official Advice

Nothing on SassaInfo constitutes legal, financial, professional, or official government advice. The content is for general informational purposes only.

If you need specific guidance on your grant eligibility, payments, appeals, or personal circumstances, contact SASSA directly via:

  • Toll-free helpline: 0800 60 10 11
  • Official website: www.sassa.gov.za
  • Nearest SASSA office (find locations here)

SassaInfo does not employ SASSA officials and cannot process applications, check statuses on your behalf, lodge appeals, or take any official action.

Indemnification {#indemnification}

By using SassaInfo, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SassaInfo and its operators from any claims, damages, costs, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms or misuse of the website.

Scam Warning

SassaInfo does not charge any fees for accessing information. We will never ask for your banking details, SASSA PIN, ID number, or any personal information via email, phone, or the website.

If any website, social media account, or individual claims to be associated with SassaInfo and asks for money or personal details, it is a scam. Do not provide any information.

Report scams immediately to the official SASSA Fraud Hotline: 0800 428 428 (free, 24/7) or the national helpline 0800 60 10 11.

Edge Case Note: Scammers often target grant beneficiaries during payment periods or after status changes. Always use only official channels listed on this site and sassa.gov.za.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page indicates the most recent revision. Your continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
