"Food" you buy in a supermarket is not a service, neither pharmaceuticals are. It would be a service to deliver your purchase at your home, but the things you buy can not be regarded a "service", and the payment:service_voucher tag (IMHO) does not apply to these vouchers you want to map the acceptance of. Are you sure there is a distinct category of objects that accept "buoni spesa" for COVID, that is not identitcal with the list of those objects that accept payment with "reddito di cittadinanza" (more general social care, not related to COVID)? I think I have read they are the same (but it could eventually depend on the region). If there are no differences, we could map the acceptance of food vouchers for COVID the same as we map acceptance of reddito di cittadinanza (i.e. the latter would imply the former and would not require explicit mapping).
