The grant pays half. Make sure you own what it buys.
The SME digital grant covers 50% of your digitalisation cost, up to RM5,000. We prepare the quotation and documents your claim needs. What makes us different is what you hold at the end of it: the domain, the hosting, the code, the accounts. All in your name, written down before we start.

Officially the Geran Digital PMKS MADANI, coordinated by MDEC and administered through BSN. A matching subsidy, not a loan — nothing to repay, and the money comes off the invoice rather than into your account.
A grant-funded website you do not own is not an asset.
Here is what we see. An SME claims the grant, an agency builds the site, and two years later the owner wants to move. Then it turns out the domain is registered to the agency, the hosting account is in the agency’s name, the code sits in a repository nobody outside the agency can see, and the Google Ads account belongs to the agency too.
Nothing illegal happened. It is just how the work was set up, and nobody wrote down who owns what. The grant paid for something the business cannot take with it.
We do it the other way round. Before any build starts, we produce a written ownership and access map covering eight control points, and every one is registered in your name. You can cancel any month and walk away with the whole thing.
Eight control points, all in your name
This map is produced in writing at the start of every engagement and updated whenever something changes. Ask any agency you are considering for the same document.
What RM14,000 buys
A package priced past the RM5,000 cap.
The grant caps at RM5,000 per company. This package — an Ownership & Access Review, a Starter Website and a year of Care — totals RM14,000, comfortably past RM10,000, the point at which a 50% match first reaches that cap. So the claim reaches the full RM5,000 with no doubt about it, and you pay the remaining RM9,000. It can be reweighted — more build, less care, or the other way — as long as the total still clears the cap.
All prices exclude SST, billed separately — we have not confirmed with MDEC or BSN how the grant treats it. The grant is a 50% match on the project value up to RM5,000 per company. Pay your share only after the claim is approved — paying early can void it.
Eligibility
Four things decide it.
Final approval sits with BSN and MDEC, not with us. If we think you will not pass, we will say so before you spend time on the paperwork.
How the claim runs
Six steps, most of them ours.
Check whether you qualify.
Nine questions, about two minutes. We reply within one Malaysian business day with a plain yes or no on eligibility, and a scoped quotation if it is a yes.

Before you send anything
Never send passwords, API keys or database credentials — not here, not on WhatsApp, not by email. If access is needed later, we arrange it through a one-time secure link. Anything containing a credential gets deleted and we tell you.
Questions we actually get
Is the grant still open?
It has run continuously under several names and is open at the time of writing. Each year's pool is finite and claimed first-come, so the risk is timing rather than the scheme disappearing. We will tell you the current position when you ask.
Can it really pay for marketing?
Yes. Digital marketing and e-commerce are eligible digitalisation areas, which covers a website, SEO and paid advertising setup. The condition is that the work is delivered and invoiced by an approved Digitalisation Partner.
Do I get the money?
No, and that is the point. It comes off our invoice. You pay your share, the grant pays the rest, up to the cap. Nothing lands in your account and there is nothing to repay.
What if my project costs less than the breakeven point?
Then the grant covers half of your actual project cost. A RM6,000 project claims RM3,000. Once a project reaches RM10,000, half of it is already the full RM5,000 cap — anything spent beyond that point is not matched further.
What happens if I want to leave?
You take everything, because everything is already yours. Cancel any month. We hand over the access map, remove our access, and confirm in writing that we no longer hold anything of yours.
