At least 1.5 million SASSA beneficiaries still need to migrate from their gold cards to Postbank black cards before Thursday's deadline. Postbank currently serves 2.6 million grant recipients, but only 1.1 million have switched to the new black cards since the migration drive began. The deadline was originally set for 28 February but was extended to March due to low registration numbers. Postbank said the new black cards offered enhanced security features, making them more secure than the old gold cards. Phemelo speaks to Sassa Spokesperson, Paseka Letsatsi.
