Bike To Work Scheme - Save up to 52% on your new bike
How It Works
Employees can choose a bike and accessories up to a value of €1,250 (€1,500 for e-bikes) and pay for it through salary sacrifice over 12 months. The payment is taken before tax, resulting in significant savings.
Benefits
Beyond the tax savings, the Bike to Work scheme helps improve physical and mental well-being, reduces daily commuting costs, and contributes to a healthier lifestyle. It also helps to reduce your carbon footprint.
