About the grant
If you or your company cannot get internet or telephony at reasonable cost from any provider on the market, you can apply for support from PTS. PTS investigates whether you meet the conditions for support and procures equipment that is installed in your home or business premises. You pay SEK 5,000 yourself. The support applies to connection to basic internet with at least 10 Mbit/s or telephony. The support only applies if there is no possibility to get a connection for SEK 5,000 or less via market actors' offers, regardless of technology (fiber, cable TV, mobile networks or satellite). The support cannot be given for summer cottages, improvement of mobile coverage via mobile phone, equipment you have obtained yourself, subscriptions or use of services. PTS's measure only covers measures that provide a connection.
