The Digital Fund is currently offering two strands of funding. Digital Fund Strand 1 offers grants of up to £500,000 and a tailored support package. The aim is to help established charities use digital take a major leap forward, with grants expected to last from one to four years. Digital Fund Strand 2 offers grants of up to £500,000 for newer organisations that have already launched promising services that use digital to achieve scale or impact. These grants are also expected to last from one to four years.

Organisations must be incorporated within the UK, and must work primarily in the voluntary and community sector.
To be eligible for Strand 2, organisations must have been incorporated after the year 2000, and must currently operate a product or service that is functional and being used by the type of people and communities they plan to serve in future.
