The South African government offers a number of funding instruments for small businesses.
Ranging from grants to incentives, each offers some form of financial support for entrepreneurs, including
Full or cost-sharing grants are usually not repayable. Grants that are less than 100% require you to fund the balance of finance required for the project at hand.
Incentives, these are actually grants in that you do not have to repay the money.

Tax Incentives mean that the business may deduct a certain amount from the money it owes in tax.
