With traditional Bike leasing, employers and employees are usually bound to a 36-month contract. A bicycle subscription is significantly more flexible: the terms are shorter (often cancellable monthly or for 6–12 months), and service (maintenance, repairs, insurance) is usually included in the fixed monthly price. A subscription is ideal for employees who want to try out a bike or only use it seasonally (e.g., in summer).
If the e-bike subscription is paid for by the employer in addition to the employee's regular salary, the benefit in kind from the private use of the e-bike is tax-free and exempt from social security contributions for the employee according to Section 3 No. 37 of the German Income Tax Act (EStG). Compared to leasing via salary sacrifice, the 0.25% tax on the benefit in kind is even waived. For the company, the subscription fees are fully tax-deductible as business expenses. Note: We cannot provide binding tax advice; in case of doubt, please consult your local tax office.
Yes, absolutely. Since leasing contracts usually run for three years, the risk is often too high for employees in their probationary period. A bicycle subscription can be started flexibly and easily terminated when someone leaves. This makes it the perfect onboarding benefit for new team members.
A major advantage of the subscription is the "all-inclusive package." Unlike buying or leasing, where appointments at workshops often have to be coordinated independently, on-site service is usually included with a subscription. Wear parts and repairs are included in the monthly fee, reducing the administrative effort for the company to zero.
Yes! That's one of NAVIT's biggest advantages. Employees can flexibly use their monthly mobility budget for a bicycle subscription. Billing is automated via the NAVIT platform, and the system handles the tax classification.
Durch die kurzen Laufzeiten ist das Risiko für den Arbeitgeber minimal. Je nach Anbieter und Vertrag kann das Abo einfach zum nächsten Monat gekündigt oder vom Mitarbeiter privat übernommen werden. Es entstehen keine teuren Ablösesummen oder komplizierten Vertragsübernahmen wie beim 36-monatigen Leasing.
Integration is incredibly simple: Employees select their desired e-bike or e-moped and the contract duration directly in the NAVIT app. The monthly subscription fee is then automatically deducted from the mobility budget provided by the employer.
Dance is a strategic partner of NAVIT and offers a true "all-inclusive package." While leasing often requires you to arrange workshop appointments yourself, Dance offers an on-demand repair service: An on-site service can be booked via the Dance app within 24–48 hours. Furthermore, Dance is extremely flexible – there are no long minimum contract terms (cancelable monthly), making it the ideal partner for NAVIT's flexible mobility budget. Another bonus: In addition to.
