- Enter ID number and the registered SASSA cellphone number at the till point to confirm the funds are available for collection.
- Beneficiary immediately receives a USSD message to which they must approve on their cell phone before the cash is handed over.
- Beneficiaries will never be asked to enter personal information on their cell phones or to click on a link.
