*Looking to digitalise your business in 2025? *

The Geran Digital PMKS MADANI (Madani Digital Grant for SMEs) offers a 50% matching grant of up to RM5,000 to help Malaysian SMEs adopt approved digital technologies.

This article breaks down exactly how the grant works, who qualifies, what you can claim, and how to apply step-by-step — even if you've received a previous grant.

The Madani Grant 2025 is a government initiative announced under the Belanjawan MADANI 2025, aimed at accelerating digital adoption among Malaysian SMEs and cooperatives. It is jointly managed by:

• Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN)
• Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC)
• Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC)
• Funding Societies (official grant platform)

To be eligible for the Geran Digital PMKS MADANI, your business must meet the following:

• At least 60% Malaysian ownership
• Registered with SSM, PBT (Local Authority), or SKM (Cooperative Commission)
• In operation for at least 6 months
• Minimum annual sales of RM50,000

If your business has received a digitalisation matching grant in the past, you can still apply this year if you are applying under Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The grant covers digital solutions under 9 recognised categories, known as Digitalisation Areas (DA). For 2025, AI and e-invoicing are newly added.

Before applying, prepare the following:

• IC copy of all company directors/owners
