Yes. Australian grants are legitimate, government-backed funding, appropriated through federal, state and territory budgets and administered by recognised bodies like AusIndustry, the ATO, Austrade and state economic development departments. Around $125 billion is distributed across the country each year. The hard part isn't whether funding exists — it's finding the programs you qualify for and getting the application in before the round closes.
No. Unlike a loan, a grant is non-dilutive, non-repayable funding — you don't repay it and you don't give up equity, as long as you meet the program's conditions and reporting requirements. That's what makes grants one of the most valuable ways to fund growth, R&D or a new hire.
Almost always, yes. Because grants are funded by taxpayers, most programs require you to be a registered business — meaning an ABN or ACN, and often GST registration. Some programs also have minimum trading history or turnover thresholds. The Grantiv finder factors this in when it matches you.
Yes — tell Grantiv what you want to fund and what your organisation does. Your strongest current match is shown immediately. A work email reveals the remaining redacted matches and keeps the search on file.
Grantiv reads what your business actually does — your state, type, size and goal — and matches you against current Australian grant programs, scoring each on how well it fits. Instead of scrolling hundreds of listings, you see the handful that are genuinely relevant to you.
Yes. Several major programs are built for early-stage and pre-revenue businesses — the R&D Tax Incentive pays a refundable offset even if you're running at a loss, and programs like CSIRO Kick-Start and state MVP grants support commercialising a new product. Eligibility depends on the specific program.
The Research and Development Tax Incentive gives companies with turnover under $20 million a refundable tax offset of 43.5% on eligible R&D — paid as a cash refund even if you're pre-profit. The current rules continue for FY2025–26 and FY2026–27 (announced reforms don't take effect until July 2028). You need to register your activities with AusIndustry within 10 months of your income year-end.
Yes. Not-for-profits, charities and community organisations are among the most active grant recipients in Australia, with dedicated government, philanthropic and corporate community funding. Grantiv matches your organisation to relevant programs the same way it does for businesses.
Constantly. Some programs are open year-round (like the R&D Tax Incentive and CSIRO Kick-Start), while many state and competitive grants run in rounds that open and close — sometimes within days once funding is allocated. That's why it pays to know what's opening before it does; our free fortnightly email tracks what's currently open.
Grantiv helps you find the grants that fit, and the Application Writer helps you draft the application with the grant criteria in view. You stay in control and submit through the official government portal — always confirm the current round, eligibility and deadlines on the grant's official page before applying.
