Sicily scholarship funds available via Postepay cards

Poste Italiane Postepay cards are now available at post offices for students in Sicily receiving scholarships for the 2025/2026 school year. Beneficiaries identified by the Region can collect these cards by presenting a valid ID and tax code for both the student and, if the student is a minor, the parent.

The scholarship funds can be used for online and physical purchases of textbooks, transportation, and cultural services such as cinemas, theaters, and museums. The cards are restricted to purchases through merchants affiliated with the Visa circuit. Users can check balances and transaction history at Postamat ATMs.
