How to Update Your Banking Details for June 2025 SASSA Payments
Millions of South Africans rely on monthly SASSA grants to support older persons, children, and individuals living with disabilities. These payments are mainly processed through linked bank accounts or approved retail partners. If you’ve recently changed your bank or your current account has been closed, it’s important to update your banking details for June 2025 SASSA payments. This ensures you will receive the June grant directly into your personal bank account without delays.
How to Update Your Banking Details for June 2025 SASSA Payments
The South African Social Security Agency only sends monthly grant payments to bank accounts that are registered in the beneficiary’s name. If you used someone else’s account, entered incorrect details, or switched your bank without updating your information, you can now update your banking details to receive your approved grant payment for June 2025.
It is very important to update your banking details directly through the SASSA website to prevent your social grant or SRD grant payment from being reversed or declined for June 2025.
- Visit the SASSA website and scroll to the “Change Banking Details” section.
- Click on “How do I change my banking details?” to proceed.
- Enter your South African ID number and the mobile number you used for the SASSA application.
- SASSA will send you an SMS with a secure link to update your banking details.
- Follow the link and carefully submit your correct bank account information.
Once you’ve completed the process, SASSA will verify your new bank details. After verification, your SASSA status check for June 2025 grant payment, which previously showed “Pending Banking Details”, will change to “Approved”.
Now your June 2025 payment and all future payments will be sent directly to your updated account without delay. To find out when your approved grant will be paid this month, you can check the confirmed SASSA payment dates for June 2025.
What Information is Required to Update Your SASSA Banking Details
When updating your SRD banking details online or at your nearest SASSA office, you’ll need to provide your personal banking information. This requirement included:
- Bank name
- Account number
- Branch code
- Account type
SASSA does not restrict which bank you can use. As a South African citizen, you have the full right to choose any registered bank for your grant payments. Whether it’s Postbank, TymeBank, Capitec, Discovery Bank, Absa, Nedbank, Investec, FNB, or Standard Bank, SASSA works with all banks officially recognised under South African financial regulations.
Important Reminder for SASSA Beneficiaries
SASSA has reminded beneficiaries that both your registered phone number and banking details are important for receiving your monthly SRD and social grant payments. If either of these details is incorrect or has been changed without your authorisation, it may block your payments. Always ensure your information with SASSA is up to date to avoid any disruptions.
