Small businesses in Singapore often face rising operating costs, manpower constraints and the need to keep pace with digital expectations. These challenges led to the introduction of the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG)—designed to support practical technology adoption.
For merchants exploring point-of-sale (POS) systems, PSG reduces upfront costs while improving day-to-day efficiency. This guide highlights five PSG-approved POS vendors, and we hope that it offers a clear starting point for businesses looking to streamline operations without overextending their budgets.
PSG Supports Digital Transformation for SMEs
The Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) supports Singapore SMEs by funding up to 50% of the cost of pre-approved digital solutions, including POS systems. These solutions are vetted for effectiveness and relevance to local business needs, which helps ensure practical adoption across different industries.
To apply for PSG support, businesses can follow these steps:
- Ensure the business is registered and operating in Singapore, and meets the relevant eligibility criteria.
- Identify suitable PSG-supported solutions.
- Obtain a quotation from a pre-approved vendor for the selected POS system.
- Submit an application via the Business Grants Portal using a Corppass account.
- Wait for approval before making any purchase or financial commitment.
- Implement the solution after approval has been granted.
- Submit a claim through the Business Grants Portal before the claim deadline.
