More than 90% of families miss out on at least one public or tax benefit they are entitled to due to the complexity of information and bureaucracy. BonusX is the first gov-tech startup in Italy that facilitates the discovery and access to your public services and other opportunities.
Some product history! After a few MVPs, we launched the BonusX platform in January 2022, starting from 0 users. Today, less than a year and a half since the launch, we have surpassed 300,000 registered users and €25,000,000 in benefits disbursed. To digitize bureaucracy, simplification is crucial. Our platform puts design and customer experience at the forefront, using simple language and intuitive interfaces to enable digitized management of information and documents for practices such as ISEE Certification, Tax Declaration, First Home Mortgage, and Family Allowance. Create your profile, the platform tells you what you can access, and you apply online!
