The short answer
No. You only need to get a black card if you have been using a gold card to withdraw your grant money.
The long answer
If your SASSA grant is paid directly into your bank account and you do not use a gold card to withdraw your money, you do not need to get a black card.
(Correction: A previous version of this Q&A stated that beneficiaries who receive their grants directly into their bank account need to get a black card. This was incorrect. We sincerely for this mistake.)
Wishing you the best,
