Short answer
No — PSG is designed for business owners to apply themselves through the Business Grants Portal using Corppass. You don't need to pay anyone to submit it. Where advice helps is upstream: choosing the right pre-approved solution and preparing the usage report that demonstrates real utilisation. Be wary of anyone charging a success fee to 'get you approved'.
Key facts
- Owners self-apply via the Business Grants Portal with Corppass
- No requirement to engage a paid agent to submit
- Real value of advice is scoping and fit, not form-filling
- Success-fee 'grant brokers' are a red flag
The application itself is administrative — you can do it. The decisions that actually determine outcomes happen before the form: is this the right solution, will it deploy, does the plan read as genuine. That's where an advisor earns trust.
PSG is designed for business owners to apply themselves through the Business Grants Portal — there's no need to pay anyone a cut of the grant to submit it. As a builder in this space I'll tell owners honestly where my own solution fits and where a competitor is the better call. If a consultant's pitch is built around a success fee, treat it as a warning sign.
