Funding for Digitalization – Save on Your IT Project
The German federal and state governments support companies in their digitalization with attractive funding programs. Depending on your federal state, company size, and project type, you can receive grants of up to 50% of investment costs – non-repayable. Our calculator shows you which programs are available to you.
Why Use Funding?
Up to 50% Grant
Many programs cover half the costs. That is free money – no repayment required.
Larger Budget Possible
With funding, you can realize a more comprehensive project – more features, better quality.
Lower Risk
The grant reduces your financial risk – the investment pays off faster.

Funding + Leasing: Double Benefits
Funding and software leasing can often be combined: first, funding reduces the total amount by 30–50%. The remaining own contribution can be spread over 72 months (6 years) via software leasing. This turns a large investment into a small monthly payment – with full tax savings as a business expense.
Example: For an IT project of €80,000 with 40% funding, you only pay €48,000 in own contribution. With leasing, this becomes approximately €750/month – often significantly less than the monthly savings from the new system.
Our ROI calculators show you in advance when your investment pays off – with and without leasing. This way you make your decision based on reliable numbers.
