How much can I expect to receive with the Platform Workers CPF Transition Support (PCTS) scheme?
From 2025 to 2028, Platform Workers CPF Transition Support (PCTS) will provide monthly cash support to lower-income platform workers to offset part of the year-on-year increase in the platform workers' share of CPF contributions to their Ordinary Account (OA) and Special Account (SA) or Retirement Account (RA).
The amount of PCTS you can receive is based on age, platform earnings and other income, as well as the offset rate for the year:

100% offset of OA, SA or RA increase from previous year |
