Is Your Business Eligible for the Trading Online Voucher?
The Trading Online Voucher is available to businesses that fit certain criteria, ensuring the grant goes to those who can benefit the most. To be eligible, your business must have:
- Less than 10 full-time employees (equivalent to 20 part-time employees)
- Annual revenue of less than €2 million
- A minimum trading history of 6 months
**Just a heads up, having a combination of full-time and part-time employees does not exclude you from being eligible for the grant. If you have 8 part-time and 4 full-time employees, you’re still eligible because 1 part-time employee counts as 0.5.

How Do You Get Reimbursed?
When it comes to reimbursement, the Local Enterprise Office requires that you pay the full amount of your marketing expenses up front, but they will then reimburse you for up to €2,500. To make this process more manageable, the reimbursement can be made in instalments over a period of six months.
NOTE: If your marketing costs come to €3,000, the government will cover €1,500, and if your bill is €5,000 ex. VAT, they'll cover €2,500. Note, however, that if your bill goes over €5,000, funding will still be capped at €2,500.
How is the Budget Allocated?
One of the main benefits of this grant is that it allows small businesses in Ireland to allocate a significant portion of their marketing budget to various activities, such as advertising, photography, and other marketing initiatives. Up to 80% of the total amount, excluding VAT, can be allocated to marketing, while up to 30% can be allocated to advertising, and up to 80% can be allocated to photography.
- Marketing: up to 80% of the total amount (ex. VAT)
- Advertising: up to 30% of the total amount (ex. VAT)
- Photography: up to 80% of the total amount (ex. VAT)
Can You Apply For a Second TOV?
Absolutely! You can apply for a second (and final) voucher after you've submitted your documents for the first one. If you are not satisfied with your first provider, feel free to switch. And if you have a second business, you can use the voucher twice for that business as well!
