A website offering £50 bike repair vouchers in England crashed after the government scheme launched on Tuesday.
An initial 50,000 "Fix Your Bike" vouchers were due to be made available online at 23:45 BST on a first-come, first-served basis.
However, many people complained they received an error message when they tried to access the website.
It began working again just before 04:00 BST but by 06:30 BST the page said it had been "temporarily paused".
Visitors to the website were asked to try again later "due to extreme volumes of traffic"
