Don’t Miss It! SASSA Child Support Grant Pays Out on Friday, 4 July 2025
July 2025 Payment Date: What You Need to Know
SASSA will disburse the SASSA Child Support Grant for July on Friday, 4 July 2025.
Why It Matters
- No more guesswork: Each grant type gets its own day—Child Support Grant recipients should only attempt collection on their designated date.
- Avoid delays: Arriving early or before the digital registers update could mean your funds don’t reflect yet.
- Stay informed: Recent increases in other grants signal general policy updates, though child support amounts remain unchanged since April.
Grant Type Payment Schedule — First Week of July
| Grant Type | July 2025 Payout Date |
|---|---|
| Old Age Pension Grant | Wed, 2 July 2025 |
| Disability Grant | Thu, 3 July 2025 |
| Child Support Grant | Fri, 4 July 2025 |
Be sure to arrive at your chosen payment point—be it your bank, SASSA card ATM, or authorised retailer—on or after the time the register reflects the new day. Attempting to withdraw even a few hours early may result in no available funds.
Expect Busy Paypoints: First Week = High Traffic
The Child Support Grant lands right after the month-end — a time when paypoints and supermarkets are at their busiest. Between the 1st and 4th of July, queues will be longer, and ATM withdrawal traffic will be heavy.
Safety Tips for Collecting in Person:
- Be aware of your surroundings and watch for pickpockets.
- Shield your PIN at ATMs.
- If possible, avoid withdrawing your full grant in cash.
- Use your SASSA Gold Card or bank transfer options for quicker, safer payments.
Remember: While crowds may be unavoidable, your safety comes first. Plan your visit strategically — early morning queues are often the shortest.
Budget Alert: Mid-Year School Costs Sneak In
The July payment date (Friday, 4 July) means families must stretch their grant to cover three weekends and rising school-related expenses, especially as Term 3 kicks off.
Here’s what might strain your budget this month:
- Transport fees for the new term
- Winter uniform replacements
- Stationery restocks and textbook fees
Smart Move: Create a weekly budget that prioritizes school costs and essentials. Avoid impulse spending on the grant payout weekend.

- ✅ Mark your calendar or phone reminder for 4 July 2025
