Among other things, the current agreement signed between the SpID provider and the government expires on 9 October 2025: as communicated by the Italy digital agency, the government body that manages the service, the money should arrive, but to small tranches.
Some providers has already made the decision to introduce the same service, but with a cost for the user, both at the time of activation (expense that many users have already incurred to have the spid) and in the form of subscription to be able to keep it active. Others could follow the footsteps if in October they will not have reassurances on the promised funds.
