Kit Digital: what it can fund in a hotel and how to apply

Kit Digital is the Spanish Government's grant programme, funded by the European NextGenerationEU funds, which gives a digital voucher to freelancers and SMEs to contract digitalisation solutions from registered digitalisation agents.

Which categories fit a hotel

• Internet presence and website: renewing your site and improving direct bookings.
• E-commerce and customer management: booking engines and CRM.
• Business intelligence and analytics: dashboards to understand costs and operations.
• Process management: tools to digitalise the hotel's internal processes.
• Cybersecurity and virtual office: protection and cloud-based work.

Voucher amounts depend on the segment (number of employees) and are published in the current call at kitdigital.es, where you can also check the open application windows.

How to apply, step by step

• Take the self-diagnosis test at kitdigital.es to learn your digitalisation level.
• Check the call open for your segment and gather the basic documentation.
• Apply for the voucher at the Red.es electronic office within the call period.
• Once granted, choose solutions from the catalogue of registered digitalisation agents.

And what about energy efficiency?

Kit Digital funds digitalisation, not building works or equipment. But consumption analytics fit: understanding where your hotel overspends is the first step before any investment that can be financed through other channels, such as the European funds' energy renovation lines or regional programmes.
