# The South African Social Security Agency has welcomed the South African Reserve Bank’s decision to allow continued use of the SASSA gold card until all cards are replaced. This move follows discussions with Postbank to ensure smooth grant payments. Acting CEO Themba Matlou urges beneficiaries to transition to the Postbank black card without delay to avoid last-minute issues. SASSA reassures beneficiaries that their concerns have been heard and advises early card changes to prevent future inconvenience.
