PSG Grant for a Website in Singapore: What EDGE Covers

You can no longer get a PSG grant for a website in Singapore. Enterprise Singapore stopped taking PSG applications on 29 September 2026, and the grant that replaced it, EDGE, does not fund a company website either; the closest it comes is up to S$2,500 toward online shop software. rankr builds business websites in Singapore, so we read Enterprise Singapore's EDGE pages on 26 October 2026 before writing this: what EDGE pays for, what it excludes, and what to check before you pay a deposit on a quote that mentions a grant.

Is the PSG grant still available?

No, not for new applications. Enterprise Singapore's EDGE Grant page says: "EDG, MRA and PSG ceased on 29 September 2026. From 30 September onwards, apply for business grant support under the EDGE Grant." GoBusiness carries the same notice on its PSG page.

If you applied before 30 September, your application goes ahead under the old scheme. Enterprise Singapore says those applications "will continue to be assessed based on the requirements of the relevant scheme", and ongoing projects are supported until the claim is paid.

GoBusiness words the closure as PSG "under EnterpriseSG". We read only Enterprise Singapore's and GoBusiness's pages, not sector schemes other agencies run.

What replaced PSG?

The EDGE Grant, which took over from PSG, the Enterprise Development Grant (EDG) and Market Readiness Assistance (MRA). It covers 8 business areas and more than 150 activities. The numbers that matter for a small business:

What	EDGE rule
Support for an SME	Up to 50% for most activities, and up to 70% for internationalisation and sustainability activities
Annual cap	S$100,000 per company across all activities, reset every 1 April
Cap for digital solutions	S$30,000 of that S$100,000, shared by single-function digital solutions, integrated enterprise systems and pre-scoped equipment
When you are paid	After the work is finished and paid in full: "Grant support is disbursed on a reimbursement basis"
Ownership	At least 30% owned by Singapore citizens or permanent residents

The 70% on the front of the EDGE page is the ceiling for overseas and sustainability work. Digital solutions get up to 50%.

Does the EDGE Grant cover a website?

No. EDGE lists 40 pre-approved single-function digital solutions, from accounting software to a salon management system, and none of them is a company website. The activities closest to a website, read on 26 October 2026:

EDGE activity	What it pays for, and whether that includes a website
E-Commerce: Online Shop (B2C)	Up to 12 months of online shop software from a pre-approved vendor. Up to 50% for an SME, maximum S$2,500, on a cost capped at S$5,000. Software only
Multichannel E-commerce Software	Up to 12 months of software that manages several online sales channels, orders and stock in one place. Up to 50%, maximum S$2,500, on a cost capped at S$5,000. Software only
Digital Marketing	Up to 12 months of campaign management software. Up to 50%, maximum S$5,000, on a cost capped at S$10,000. No website
International Branding	Brand research, brand strategy and brand identity for overseas markets, at up to 70%. "Website development" is listed as not supported
Overseas Marketing & PR	Promotions and publicity in an overseas market, at up to 70%. Websites are not listed, and activities aimed at domestic business are excluded

Of the EDGE pages we read, International Branding is the only one that names websites, and it names them to rule them out: its list of costs it will not support includes "collateral production, website development, social media management".

Enterprise Singapore's FAQ says that if no listed activity fits what you want to buy, you "may approach an SME Centre for assistance". That is the right call to make before signing anything that depends on a grant.

What can EDGE still pay for if you sell online?

If your website needs a shop that sells to consumers, the online shop software can get support. The steps on Enterprise Singapore's page, in order:

Pick a vendor and a package from the pre-approved list on IMDA's SMEs Go Digital site.
Get the vendor's quotation and build the same package on SMEs Go Digital, which gives you a package reference ID through your company's Corppass.
Apply on the Business Grants Portal yourself. Enterprise Singapore's page says third-party companies "are not permitted to apply for or manage the grant on behalf of the applicant company".
Wait for the decision, which the page puts at 1 week for this solution, and accept the Letter of Offer.
Finish within 18 months of approval, pay the vendor in full, then claim. Costs from the date you applied are covered once you are approved.

The support covers the shop software. Building the rest of the website, the copy, the photos and the SEO is not on the list.

What should you check before paying a deposit on a grant-funded website quote?

If a quote still says a grant will pay for part of your website, check these before you pay anything:

It names PSG. PSG has closed to new applications, so that part of the quote is out of date.
It promises 70%. For digital solutions EDGE pays up to 50% for an SME. 70% applies to overseas and sustainability activities.
The vendor offers to apply for you. Enterprise Singapore does not allow a third party to apply for or manage the grant on your behalf.
It asks for a deposit before you apply. Enterprise Singapore treats any work started, or any payment or deposit made, before the application as retrospective, and retrospective applications "will not be supported".
It does not name the EDGE activity. Ask which of the 40 solutions, or which activity, the quote is for, and find that name on Enterprise Singapore's page yourself.

How much does a website cost without a grant?

Our website cost guide lists what Singapore agencies charge for a new site or a redesign, what pushes a quote up, and what rankr charges. If you are replacing an existing site, the website revamp guide covers what to ask a designer before you pay.

Where does rankr fit?

rankr builds business websites in code and sets them up to be found on Google and cited by ChatGPT: titles, descriptions, structured data, the sitemap and Search Console are part of the build, and on an SEO plan hosting and every later edit are included. Our web development page has the details.

Another route suits some businesses better:

If you mainly sell products to consumers and want the online shop support, take the shop software from a vendor on IMDA's pre-approved list and claim the up to S$2,500.
If the money is for an overseas market, start with the Overseas Marketing & PR and International Branding activities, and check with an SME Centre how a website for that market is treated.

For a business that wants enquiries from people searching Google and asking ChatGPT, a site built for search is the part EDGE does not cover, and it is the part we do.
