Regional digital vouchers: what still exists in 2026 (and what has closed)

"Am I entitled to a digital voucher to fund my project?" is one of the questions we are asked most often. The honest answer: it depends on your region, and the landscape has changed a great deal.

In brief — There is no longer a national "digital voucher": the €500 scheme closed in July 2021, and the Île-de-France digital voucher closed on 24 October 2025. Several regions do, however, maintain digital transformation grants for small firms and SMEs in 2026 (indicative amounts of €500 to €5,000, sometimes up to 50% of the spend). The right reflex: check the funding search engine on francenum.gouv.fr and ask your chamber of commerce or trades before committing.

What has closed (and is still sometimes sold to you)

The national €500 France Num voucher has been closed since 31 July 2021. The Île-de-France digital voucher (€1,500) has been closed since 24 October 2025.

As for the "40% digital super-deduction", it was a 2019-2020 scheme reserved for industrial SMEs: it does not apply to small service firms, shops or the professions. Be wary of content still quoting these schemes.

What is still open in 2026 (indicative examples)

The regions keep control of their own schemes, with annual envelopes sometimes exhausted by the spring. Among those cited in 2026: Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (a "booster" type support of around €3,000), Nouvelle-Aquitaine (a grant of up to 50% of the spend for an overall digital project, including digital frugality and security), Occitanie (digital transformation passes and vouchers), Hauts-de-France (digital investment support for craftspeople and shopkeepers).

Amounts, ceilings, eligible activity codes and timetables vary: each regional sheet prevails.

The method, in three steps

1) Search the funding engine on francenum.gouv.fr (filterable by region and project type — close to 200 schemes listed). 2) Confirm with your chamber of commerce or trades that the regional envelope is still open and your sector eligible. 3) Apply BEFORE signing the quote: most schemes require that the spend not be committed before approval.

Combining schemes, an often forgotten lever

A regional investment grant can be combined with training paid for by your sector fund (see our article) and, for structured AI projects, with Bpifrance's Diag Data IA (see our article) — within the European limits on combining aid (« de minimis »).

Where Blue Lemon Agent stands

Our published prices (see our pricing) make applications easier: the quote clearly separates commissioning (the investment, usually the eligible part) from the running subscription. During the free audit, we tell you which schemes in your region to check.

The takeaway: Apply BEFORE signing the quote: most schemes require that the spend not be committed before approval.
Caution — Regional schemes open, close and change criteria during the year; the amounts quoted are indicative at the date of publication. Check your region's official sheet (francenum.gouv.fr, your regional council's site) and the envelope timetable before committing.
