Trading Online Voucher: How to Get Up to €2,500 Towards Your Website
If you run a small or micro business in Ireland and don't yet have a proper website, there's a good chance your Local Enterprise Office (LEO) will part-fund one. The Trading Online Voucher Scheme offers up to €2,500, matched 50/50, meaning a €2,500 project can cost as little as €1,250 out of pocket.
Who qualifies?
Generally, the scheme is aimed at businesses that:
- Have between 1 and 10 employees
- Have an annual turnover of less than €2 million
- Are trading for at least 6 months
- Are registered as a business in Ireland
Exact criteria can vary slightly by Local Enterprise Office, so it's worth checking directly with yours before applying.
What does the voucher cover?
The voucher can typically be used towards website development, e-commerce functionality, digital marketing strategy, and related training. It's designed specifically to help businesses start selling online or improve an existing digital presence - which lines up well with our Web Design & Development and E-commerce services.
Tip: Apply before the project starts. Most LEOs require voucher approval in advance - if you've already paid for and launched your site, it's usually too late to claim retroactively.
