Sibongile Mofokeng speaks with Mr. Tsietsi Michael Mathe from SASSA about the new mandatory Beneficiary Biometric Enrolment System starting 1 September 2025. This system uses fingerprints and facial recognition to verify grant beneficiaries and prevent fraud. All new applicants must complete biometric enrolment, and existing beneficiaries will provide biometric data during updates or reviews. The process is quick and aims to ensure grants go to the right people while improving the security and integrity of social grant administration. SASSA has prepared its offices nationwide for a smooth rollout.
