Mobile Apps Capital
Did you know that the Greater Toronto Area is the “mobile apps capital” of the world? There is an extensive ecosystem that helps keep us in the top spot. The Ontario Interactive Digital Media Tax Credit (OIDMTC) is one of the critical parts of that ecosystem.
What is OIDMTC?
OIDMTC is a fully refundable (that means your company gets cash) tax credit based on eligible Ontario labor and marketing & distribution expenses claimed by a qualifying corporation with respect to interactive digital media products, providing up to 40% of eligible labor and $100,000 in marketing costs per project.
Whereas SR&ED provides funds for actual R&D, OIDMTC provides money for packaging, marketing and a launch of interactive digital media products developed in Ontario.
