Frequently asked questions
How many digital-upgrade programs are there in Canada right now?
69 verified programs are open as of our latest checks: 33 grants and rebates, 28 loans and financing programs and 8 other supports such as mixed grant-and-loan programs, across 13 provinces and territories. Programs open and close through the year, and every record shows the date we last verified it.
Do these programs cover the full cost?
Rarely. Most are cost-share programs: they pay a percentage of eligible costs up to a cap, and you pay the rest. Many also require approval before you buy or sign anything, because spending first can disqualify the whole project. Each record spells out the rules we found.
Who approves these applications?
Each program's administrator, usually the government body or organization that runs it, and never us. BBN Labs is an independent Canadian company, not a government agency. Applying through the official program site is always free.
