If you’ve funded a website, e-commerce build, or digital transformation project through the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) or Enterprise Development Grant (EDG), 2026 is the year to pay attention. Enterprise Singapore has confirmed that from the second half of 2026, a new scheme called EDGE will fold PSG, EDG, and the Market Readiness Assistance (MRA) grant into one application (Enterprise Singapore, Business Refresh Package factsheet, 2026). For SMEs mid-way through planning a grant-funded project, the timing of your application now matters as much as the paperwork.
Key Takeaways
- PSG, EDG and MRA will be consolidated into a single grant called EDGE, launching in the second half of 2026.
- Until EDGE goes live, PSG, EDG, and MRA remain open and unchanged on the Business Grants Portal.
- EDGE will support up to S$100,000 per year, per business, and — unlike PSG and EDG today — will be open to non-SMEs too.
- MRA support has already risen to 70% for local SMEs (up from 50%) as of 1 April 2026.
- Businesses with a digital project in mind should weigh applying now under PSG/EDG against waiting for EDGE’s simplified, activity-based process.
- eFusion Technology will be exhibiting at SMEs Go Digital Day 2026 on 13 October 2026 at Suntec Singapore — free to attend, and a good place to ask grant questions in person.
What’s Actually Changing in 2026?
The changes come from Enterprise Singapore’s Business Refresh Package, announced as part of Budget 2026. Its stated goal is to make grant support easier to navigate: businesses currently have to work out which of several grants — PSG, EDG, or MRA — fits their project before applying. Under the new model, that decision disappears. Companies will instead apply based on what they’re trying to do, whether that’s digitalisation, capability building, or overseas expansion, and the system will route the support accordingly (Enterprise Singapore, 2026).
The Big One: EDGE Replaces PSG, EDG and MRA
EDGE — short for Enterprise Development for Growth and Expansion — is the single grant that will absorb PSG, EDG, and MRA when it launches later this year. A few details are already confirmed:
- Support cap: Up to S$100,000 per business per year for eligible activities, with case-by-case assessment for businesses that need more.
- Wider eligibility: EDGE will be open to all Singapore-registered businesses, including non-SMEs — a departure from PSG and EDG today, which are capped at companies with group turnover under S$100 million or fewer than 200 employees.
- One application, not three: Businesses will apply by activity (e.g. digitalisation, market expansion, efficiency improvements) instead of picking a grant scheme upfront.
- Full eligibility criteria pending: Enterprise Singapore has said more details, including exact support levels by activity, will be released closer to launch (Enterprise Singapore PSG factsheet, 2026).
Nothing Changes Yet — But the Clock Is Running
Here’s the part easy to miss: PSG and EDG haven’t changed. Support levels, funding caps, and application steps on the Business Grants Portal are exactly as they’ve always been — up to 50% of qualifying costs, capped at S$30,000 under PSG for pre-approved IT solutions like e-commerce platforms. Enterprise Singapore’s own PSG page confirms this directly: “EDGE launches in 2H2026. Existing grants (EDG, MRA, PSG) remain accessible until launch” (Enterprise Singapore, 2026).
That’s a real window, not a formality. Businesses that already know they want a PSG-supported e-commerce build or an EDG-funded transformation project can still apply under the current, well-documented rules — rather than wait for a new scheme whose exact eligibility criteria and support tiers by activity haven’t been published yet.
What Else Changed on 1 April 2026
The Business Refresh Package also lifted support levels on several adjacent schemes, effective 1 April 2026:
- Market Readiness Assistance (MRA): support for local SMEs rose from 50% to 70%, holding until 31 March 2029, with the $100,000-per-market cap extended.
- Global Innovation Alliance (GIA) and BizAdapt: support for SMEs also rose to 70% (from 50% and 30% respectively).
- Enhanced Visual Merchandising and Heartland Enterprise Placemaking: support rose to up to 70% (from 50%).
- Energy Efficiency Grant: extended a further year, to 31 March 2027.
None of these directly touch PSG or EDG today, but they’re a sign of where support levels are heading once EDGE consolidates everything — and MRA’s enhancements are the ones expected to carry over into EDGE once it launches (Enterprise Singapore, 2026).
What Should SMEs Do Right Now?
- If you have a defined project — a new e-commerce site, a CRM rollout, an ERP upgrade — check whether it fits a current PSG pre-approved solution or EDG scope, and apply now rather than waiting on EDGE’s undefined activity categories.
- Confirm your eligibility basics — Singapore-registered, at least 30% local shareholding, group turnover under S$100 million or under 200 employees for PSG/EDG.
- Don’t pay or commit before applying. Both grants reject retrospective applications — any deposit or payment made before submission disqualifies the claim.
- If your project is still in the idea stage, it may be worth waiting to see EDGE’s confirmed activity categories and support levels before locking into a scope.
- Talk to a grant-experienced vendor early. Pre-approved solution providers already know what documentation, quotations, and project scopes get approved quickly — that doesn’t change under EDGE.

Conclusion: Apply Now, or Wait for EDGE?
For most SMEs with a concrete digital project already scoped, the practical move is to apply under PSG or EDG now — the rules are known, the process is proven, and nothing about today’s applications changes when EDGE arrives. Businesses without a fixed plan yet have some room to wait and see what EDGE’s activity-based categories look like once Enterprise Singapore publishes them later this year.
Either way, this is a scheme worth watching rather than assuming will look the same in December as it does today.
