CYCLE TO WORK

More and more employers are offering cycle to work schemes as an attractive, affordable financing model for their employees to promote healthier journeys to work and to reduce environmental pollution. It allows employers to loan cycles and cyclists’ safety equipment to employees as a tax-free benefit.

See below for a detailed outline of the process or contact us for more information.

CYCLE SCHEME CALCULATOR

WHAT IS THE CYCLE TO WORK SCHEME AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Cycle to Work Scheme is a very popular way of buying a new bike (or equipment). The way the scheme works is your employer buys the bike and equipment, then leases it to you through an interest-free salary sacrifice scheme. In short, this means you’ll pay less for your bike and you will be able to pay in instalments.

WHAT IF MY EMPLOYER IS NOT PART OF A CYCLE SCHEME?

If your employer is not part of a cycle scheme, we’ve partnered with the Green Commute Initiative, a leading UK-based provider. There’s no limit to the price of the bike, and you can save the full tax rate on the whole price of the bike. And unlike other schemes, there is no 7% end-of-scheme charge if you want to buy the bike for yourself. You can pay from your salary over any period you and your employer agree. Common terms are 12, 18, and 24 months. This reduces the amount of tax you have to pay so you can make significant savings on your bike. Find out how much you can save using the GCI online calculator.

The advantages for you:

  • Save up to 47% through tax breaks
  • No limit – buy any Quella products, including accessories
  • Pay with your gross salary in manageable instalments
  • No end-of-scheme fees
  • Ride however you want – not only commuting
