Grants for your new website or webshop?
Tips 'n tricks about the web, digital trends, and online marketing
Get a grant for your digital investment
A professional website or webshop is a good investment for your company or organisation. Not only does it give you a digital presence with your target groups, but it also creates new leads and commercial opportunities. The government also understands the importance of a good website, and provides special subsidies that support your business in your digital investments.
Whether you need advice for digital growth, want to realise a specific project, invest in an innovative webshop, set up a secure online payment system or implement multilingual communication? The government is happy to help you get started with a grant for your digital journey.
This blog post will tell you how and when you can get a grant.

What our partners say
Giovanni Smet
Great website designer! Direct and fast communication and thinking along to achieve a super result. Do not hesitate to contact him to have your website taken care of.
Domaine de Renesse
We are very happy with the website Funkhaus created for us. The design is modern and attractive, and the user-friendliness (especially for making changes and adding activities ourselves) is excellent. The service is also very pleasant: in case of questions or changes, the response is quick and helpful. In short, a fine cooperation and a result we are proud of.
Daisy Lens
Wout and his team do a fantastic job and are always helpful. Even when something goes wrong, they are super quick to solve everything. Very nice to work with them. Highly recommend!
Saar
The entire Eurowaste team would like to thank your team at Funkhaus for the smooth and professional cooperation. We currently have a fresh new website that works well. Thanks also for getting our 'socials' like LinkedIn in order.
Emmanuel Verraes
Very hands-on and service-minded! I have been recommended Funkhaus by another customer and I - on turn - highly recommend their services.
Leen Vermeiren
After being introduced to several website builders, we confidently went with Funkhaus to build our new website and choose our new corporate identity. Wout guided us through the whole process in a professional, efficient and friendly manner. We are very happy with this cooperation and can definitely recommend Funkhaus. Feel free to take a look at the website of Stella Matutina Wuustwezel.
Kylie Mineo
Fantastic website builder with a lot of experience! It was very smooth cooperation and you can't ask anything too much of Wout to get everything to your liking. Highly recommended!
Christoph Strijbos
Wout en zijn team zijn ongelooflijk professioneel in elke stap van het proces, van brainstorming tot aflevering van de website.
Altijd met respect en duidelijke communicatie.
Ik kan Funkhaus ten zeerste aanraden!
Charlotte Lambrecht - Charlie's Fit Studio
Would you like to have a top website/logo developed?
Then you've come to the right place at Funkhaus!
What I myself find hugely important in a collaboration is good communication. Wout was always very quick in answering my questions and looking for solutions. Everything was always discussed in consultation and there was room for brainstorming and creativity. If something didn't feel 100% right, Wout provided several alternatives until the feeling was completely right. It was also an absolute bonus to receive such positive support as a start-up.
A very nice collaboration resulting in a top website. Go check it out at www.charliesfitstudio.be
Ann Adriaensen
Our old website has been given a complete makeover. Online ordering was made possible with customisation, a clear layout was proposed with plenty of space for photos and texts. I am very proud of the end result. But also very satisfied with the service and way of working.
