Updated September 18, 2026: some measures are open, others have application windows already scheduled for the coming months, and others are closed. A Shopify project is not automatically eligible because it involves “digitalization”: eligibility always depends on the specific call, expense category, beneficiary and supplier rules.
Valore Artigiano 2026: open until October 28
Lazio Innova lists Valore Artigiano 2026 as open. Applications can be submitted through GeCoWEB Plus from July 21, 2026 at 12:00 until October 28, 2026 at 17:00.
The measure is for qualifying artisan businesses with an operating location in Lazio. It can cover up to 60% of eligible expenses, with a maximum grant of €12,000 and a minimum project investment of €5,000.
Lazio Innova lists digital technologies, hardware, software, ICT and digital services including cloud and SaaS among eligible categories. This does not make every Shopify invoice automatically eligible; the project and each cost item must be checked against the official call and reporting rules.

Rome Chamber of Commerce Dual Transition Voucher 2026: applications open until September 22
As of September 18, 2026, the application window is open. Applications can be submitted through the Restart portal from 14:00 on September 15, 2026 until 14:00 on September 22, 2026. Preloading has been available since September 8; preloading alone does not count as submitting the application.
The measure offers vouchers of up to €10,000 per company to qualifying micro, small and medium businesses in Rome and its province for digital and ecological transition projects.
Before including ecommerce development, consulting or software in a quotation, the complete call and eligible-expense rules must be checked.

MIMIT Cloud & Cybersecurity Voucher: applications from November
The national MIMIT measure for cloud computing and cybersecurity is not a general voucher for rebuilding an ecommerce store. Pre-filling starts on October 20, 2026, while formal applications run from November 10, 2026 to January 20, 2027.
An important restriction is that eligible products and services must come from suppliers included in the ministry's authorized supplier list. I therefore do not present my Shopify development work as automatically financeable through this measure.

Donne e Impresa 2026 and Lazio SME Digitalization Voucher: closed
The 2026 editions of Donne e Impresa and the Lazio SME Digitalization Voucher previously mentioned in this guide are not open opportunities as of September 18, 2026. Lazio Innova lists them as closed.
When a Shopify project can fit a public grant
The check starts with four elements: beneficiary, project objective, eligible expense category and when the expense can legally be incurred. Even where software or digital services are eligible, rules may restrict licenses, consulting, suppliers, dates, payment methods and reporting.
I prepare the technical scope only after the client or their grant advisor has confirmed the funding perimeter. I can describe Shopify activities, deliverables, costs and architecture accurately, but I do not replace the professional handling the application and I do not guarantee approval, reimbursement or reporting acceptance.
My scope
I am Francesco Guiducci and I work as a freelance Shopify specialist on Basic, Grow and Advanced plans. If an ecommerce project is genuinely eligible, I can provide a technical quotation aligned with the work I will actually deliver and documentation relating to that service.
I do not promise “revocation-proof documentation” or automatic approval by reviewers. The official call and, where necessary, the professional managing the application remain authoritative.
Status verified September 18, 2026. Conditions can change; always check the official page before submitting an application or incurring an expense.
