For Italian municipalities
Reactivate a space,
we'll handle the rest.
We publish your municipality's underused space in our network, handle requests, and mediate the agreement. No commission: whoever books pays with PagoPA and the money goes straight into the municipality's treasury.

How it works
Three steps, one mediator.
We promote the public spaces of small municipalities across Italy and manage their bookings. For the municipality, it takes three steps.
01 ·
Site surveyDigital onboardingWe'll meet on a video call.
With the mayor or a municipal contact we do everything remotely: a video call, photos of the spaces and the information needed to give them a new lease of life.
02 · PROMOTION & OUTREACH
Listing and promotion
In addition to Rural Pop-up, we can enable other booking channels (e.g., Google Maps, Booking, etc.). Choose and integrate the platforms that best enhance your spaces.
03 · BOOKING MANAGEMENT
Management? We can handle it all.
We handle everything: bookings, payments, deposits and client relations. And if needed, we offer extra services tailored to your needs.
We take care of everything, from booking to payment.
A booking management system in four phases.
- 01
Visit in person or online
- 02
Event analysis and planning
- 03
Confirmation by the municipality and signing of the agreement
- 04
Payment
Three good reasons
Why it pays off for your town.
Free activation
Rural DIGITAL brings your municipality and its spaces online at no cost. You only pay to collect payments with PagoPA.
Professional visibility
High-resolution photos, bilingual descriptions, integration with Google Maps and external booking channels.
Delegated management
We handle requests, payments, deposits and client contact. You only sign the agreement.
A story, not a promise
Sala Belvedere, Vezza d'Alba: already in use. Now by many more people.
The most-booked space in our first months. The hall was already known in the village, but since being online it's used by many more — including people from outside, with ideas that wouldn't have arrived before: private celebrations, cultural gatherings, activations that diversified the calendar. The audience widened — and now we know it's there. A real public we can also engage to reactivate other rural places.
The insight
Visibility doesn't only bring bookings: it brings diverse uses, ideas, and an audience we can also carry to other places.
The hall was already there. The extra people, ideas and energy came when the space got a place to exist online — including beyond the village.
How do we support ourselves?
We started with a PNRR grant obtained in June 2024 (€64,398.80 in total, of which €24,000 for collecting material). Since then, we sustain ourselves through the PagoPA booking fee, paid by municipalities that want to collect payments online. We take no commission on bookings.
