Malta Enterprise part-finances up to 50% of eligible digital investment — 60% in Gozo. We design the project, write the technical documentation, build it, and hand you the evidence pack for your claim.
A non-repayable grant that part-finances digital investment for Maltese SMEs. Open until 31 December 2026, subject to available funds.
The smallest grant awarded. At 50% co-financing that means an eligible project of roughly €20,000 — so this suits a real build, not a brochure site.
Up to half of eligible costs for investments in Malta, and up to 60% for investments in Gozo, under the de minimis regulation.
The ceiling per applicant, inclusive of a 7% flat rate covering indirect costs tied to the investment.
Move the slider to your project value. Indicative only — the real figure depends on which of your costs qualify.
Each package is sized so the grant is worth claiming. Prices exclude VAT and are shaped around your business once we have scoped it.
For an established business whose website no longer reflects it — or never did.
For retailers who want a store that merchandises, not a template with a cart bolted on.
For firms whose real problem is a process, not a page — quotes, documents, projects, approvals.
The scheme is aimed at micro, small and medium enterprises carrying out an eligible economic activity, regardless of legal form. Start-ups classified as micro or small can apply too.
Most businesses that ask us this question turn out to be eligible. The harder question is whether the project is worth scoping at grant scale — and that is what the first call is for.
Book a Free Eligibility CallFive steps from first call to funded build. The paperwork is the part most agencies avoid — it is the part we handle.
Forty-five minutes to map what is slow, manual or broken, and what digitalising it would be worth.
FreeA costed technical scope, structured around the cost categories the scheme recognises.
FreeWe prepare the technical documentation and quotations, and submit ahead of a cut-off date.
We Handle ItOn approval we design, develop, test and deploy — to the scope that was approved.
4–16 WeeksYou get a complete evidence pack for the claim, then ongoing hosting and maintenance.
OngoingCall 2 opened on 1 July 2026, with cut-off dates roughly every 15 days until the scheme closes — subject to the budget lasting that long. A scoped project takes us about two weeks to document properly, so the sooner we start, the more rounds you have in hand.
A funded application has to describe real digital capability. That is easier to write when it is genuinely being built.
We are led by a warranted engineer who writes software daily. Your project is specified by the person who will build it, not by an account manager.
Our own servers, our own backups, our own monitoring. When something needs fixing at 11pm, there is no third-party support queue between you and a solution.
Document management systems, client portals, custom commerce platforms. Not themes with your logo dropped in the corner.
No. Digitalise Your SME is a non-repayable grant. It part-finances the investment rather than lending against it.
Plan for it. Grants of this type are normally reimbursed against evidence of what you have actually spent, which means the cash leaves your account before it comes back. We will set out the payment schedule and the likely reimbursement timing in writing before you commit to anything, so there are no surprises in the middle of a build.
Then this scheme is probably the wrong tool, and we will tell you so on the first call rather than inflating a quote to reach the threshold.
There are two honest alternatives: bundle genuinely useful work you were going to do anyway across the next two years into one project, or simply engage us directly at normal rates. Both are better than padding an application.
Scoping and the costed project design are free. The technical documentation for the application is included when you appoint us to deliver the project. We do not sell application-writing as a standalone service, because the quality of the application depends on knowing exactly what is going to be built.
The scheme targets digital capabilities and digitalised processes — things like product and process design, end-to-end procurement, supply chain and distribution, and after-sales. In practice that covers business websites, eCommerce storefronts with payment and inventory handling, and custom web applications, alongside related hardware and software.
The exact eligible cost categories are set out in the official guidelines, and we check your specific scope against them before submitting.
You are under no obligation to proceed with the project. We will tell you honestly, before submission, how strong we think the case is — we would rather withdraw a weak application than spend your time on one.

Confirm the current terms directly with Malta Enterprise before making any financial commitment. Where an application needs formal financial or tax advice, we will say so and work alongside your accountant or a grants specialist.
A free, no-obligation call. We will tell you straight whether the scheme fits — including when it does not.
