What replaced EDG, PSG and MRA?

EDGE replaced all three. The Enterprise Development Grant (EDG), the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) and Market Readiness Assistance (MRA) ceased on 29 September 2026, and from 30 September 2026 new projects apply under Enterprise Singapore's EDGE Grant (EDGE Grant page).

It was not a rename. EDGE is one grant with a list of activities, and the EDGE FAQ says each activity "has its own requirements, in terms of supported costs and expected deliverables". Some activity pages also publish a cost cap and an outcome time. Below is our reading of where each old use now sits, with every grant figure checked against Enterprise Singapore's pages on 12 October 2026.

The key dates

• 29 September 2026: EDG, MRA and PSG ceased (EDGE Grant page).
• 30 September 2026: EDGE opened for new applications (EDGE Grant page; EDGE FAQ).
• 1 November 2026: EDGE claims open for single-function digital solutions, integrated enterprise systems and pre-scoped equipment activities (EDGE FAQ).
• 30 November 2026: last date for final claims on SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit (SFEC) programmes under the old schemes. EDGE is not supportable under SFEC (EDGE FAQ).
• 1 December 2026: EDGE claims open for other activities (EDGE FAQ).

Old scheme to new activity

This mapping is our reading, not Enterprise Singapore's. None of the Enterprise Singapore pages we read maps the old schemes to EDGE activities. You choose the activity, and Enterprise Singapore assesses each application. Support levels are the most an SME or a non-SME can receive for that activity. Only your Letter of Offer confirms the grant amount.

The rows that matter most for marketing teams are the first four. Under EDGE, those tools sit together under single-function digital solutions, with small cost caps. The EDGE FAQ says that within the S$100,000 annual company cap, a company can use up to S$30,000 on single-function digital solutions, integrated enterprise systems and pre-scoped equipment. The cap year starts on 1 April.

What changed in the rules

• One rate does not fit all. The EDGE FAQ sets up to 50% for SMEs and up to 30% for non-SMEs, and up to 70% and 50% for internationalisation and sustainability activities. The four single-function pages we read, CRM and digital marketing among them, are in the 50% group.
• Ownership. The EDGE FAQ says: "The applicant must be a business entity registered in Singapore with at least 30% Singaporean(s) and/or Singapore PR(s) ownership." The activity pages we read add that ownership is "determined by the ultimate individual ownership".
• One application per activity. The EDGE FAQ says companies apply "with one application submitted for each activity, subject to the annual grant cap of S$100,000", and can submit several applications at the same time.
• Only two kinds of change after approval: project end date and claim due date, says the EDGE FAQ. A new vendor means terminating the application and submitting a new one.
• One final claim. The EDGE FAQ says "EDGE accepts only a single and final claim".

If you had an application in progress

The EDGE FAQ says applications submitted under EDG, MRA or PSG before 30 September 2026 are assessed under their own scheme's requirements, and ongoing projects are supported until project completion and claim disbursement. No new applications are accepted under those schemes. Our advice: keep your Letter of Offer dates, Corppass roles and main contact up to date.

The same FAQ says businesses that previously applied for or received funding under EDG, MRA or PSG can apply for EDGE, and that EDGE support is intended for new projects. A project that already received EDG, MRA or PSG support should not seek EDGE support for the same project. The CRM, Loyalty Management, Digital Marketing, E-Commerce and Large-scale Digital Transformation pages we read also list: "Not have previously applied for grant support for this solution". EDGE caps "do not take into account previous grant utilisation under EDG, MRA and PSG".

Know the project before you pick the activity. The Grant Project Planner turns a few short answers into a draft project brief in about three minutes. It is free, with no documents or login.

Rules on the EDGE pages we read

The EDGE FAQ says businesses can "submit applications via the Business Grants Portal (BGP) links provided on the respective activity pages", and adds: "All submissions in BGP must be made by the grant applicant through its authorised employees/ staff (i.e. users)." The EDGE activity pages we read say: "Third-party companies are not permitted to apply for or manage the grant on behalf of the applicant company." The Large-scale Digital Transformation page says: "Sign in to your company's Corppass account to apply on BGP." As of 12 October 2026, the Business Grants Portal page at apply.gov.sg listed the EDGE Grant under the BGP 2.0 log-in. Our guide to applying on the Business Grants Portal explains how the portal works.

Most of the EDGE activity pages we read list this condition: "Not have started work or made any payment or deposit to a supplier, vendor, or third party prior to application submission". Not every activity page sets the same rule: the Overseas Physical Trade Fairs page says "Payments or deposits made to secure booth space prior to application submission are permitted". Our safe rule: start nothing, pay nothing and sign nothing before you submit. The EDGE Grant page says grant support "is disbursed on a reimbursement basis", and claims can be submitted "once the activity is completed and full payment has been made".

If EDGE does not fit your project

The EDGE FAQ says: "Retrospective applications will not be supported." It treats an application as retrospective if the applicant "has started work or made any payment or deposit to a supplier, vendor, or third party prior to application submission". If the work has already started, or your company does not meet the ownership condition above, our view is that funding it yourself is the practical route. Our Sandbox, from S$3,500, tests one part of the project in one or two weeks, without waiting for a grant outcome.

Next step

EDGE groups its support by activity, so the first question is not which form to fill in but what your project will deliver. Plan the project, then match it to the activity that fits.

Plan it free first. Our Grant Project Planner asks a few short questions about your business and the bottleneck you want to fix, then gives you a draft project brief on screen in about three minutes. No documents, no login.

Want us alongside you? If the project spans several systems or vendors, or you would rather not run the project alone, tell us about it and check if we're a fit. We look up your company before we reply, and we reply within one working day, Singapore time. If you know something is wrong, but not yet what to fix, a Blueprint is a paid diagnosis that ends with a costed plan.

Grant outcomes are decided only by the agency that runs the grant.
