The assault on the click day of November 3 had put the site in crisis to obtain the mobility voucher and more than one SPID provider, creating problems for many. Fixed the problems, the funds ran out immediately, but there is still time to claim the

That November 3, the date on which the click day was launched to obtain the bike bonus (called officially mobility bonus ), there would be problems it was easy to understand: limited funds and many people eager to get them. Inevitably, from the early hours of the morning the platform set up to access the reimbursement of expenses for bikes and scooters was in crisis, a crisis that also extended to the platforms of SPID providers (starting with Poste Italiane, the most widespread) and that resolved itself after several hours, however, leaving several dry-mouthed . The government has decided to relaunch and now there is time until December 9 to register. The click logic has been abandoned and all those who have already bought their vehicle will get the contribution. Those who have not yet proceeded with the purchase can pre-register to obtain a refund but beware: as specified on the site, “ The pre-registration does not entitle you to any benefits, it serves the Ministry environment in order to quantify the resources for a timely refinancing of the Voucher for Mobility Experimental Program “.

The mobility voucher has been extended to everyone: there is time until December 9 to pre-register

Also the government has realized that the click day logic cannot work and has decided to retrace its steps. Where you have used up in just over a day all the funds disbursed for the mobility voucher ( 215 millions of euros ) – allocated to a discount of 60% for anyone who had bought a bike (including pedal assisted) or an electric scooter or equivalent – the executive decided to retrace its steps and refinance the measure, making the bike bonus accessible not only to first-time arrivals but to all those who have purchased a micro-mobility device between May 4th and November 2nd.

The site is always the same and the procedure changes slightly: the difference is that now you can make what is called a pre-registration: you register on the site, indicate the amount spent and wait for the refund. If the lucky ones who managed to get it in the frenzy of the click day will be able to see the amount debited from the current account within a few days, for all the others the times are extended, also because the measure must be refinanced. In short, I’ll talk about it in 2021.

Those who have not yet made the purchase, can pre-register by indicating the amount of the bonus (up to 150 euro, up to 300 euro and up to 500 euro) and then deliver the generated voucher to the shopkeeper to get the discount. Purchase must be made by 31 December 2020.
