The Social Grant is paid by South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) using the Smartcard System for distribution of funds to beneficiaries who are classified as: Old Age Grant; Child Grant; War Veteran Grant; Foster Care Grant; Disability Grant; Care Dependency Grant; and Grant-in-Aid. Smartcard System was implemented for the developed countries and developing countries, however, in South Africa, the implementation appears to have some deficiencies. The implementation in the rural areas is not the same as the one in the urban areas due to technical infrastructure and training. The main objective of this study is to determine factors that contribute to successful implementation of Smartcard System and to develop an appropriate framework for the implementation of the Smartcard System in rural South Africa. aim of this research.
