Save on more than just your bike

just like sales, but different

1. Save on accessories

Do you need a decent helmet, a practical bicycle bag, a GPS, a compact bicycle trailer or a bicycle lock?

You can also lease these at o2o at the same advantageous conditions. In this way all your options and accessories are on average 40% less expensive than if you would buy it all yourself as a private individual.

2. Save on maintenance and repairs

You pay for maintenance and repairs of your lease bicycle with your o2o service budget. That budget is an annual amount between 50 and 400 euros that you freely choose, depending on what you need. Unless your employer fixes this amount.

And yes, you also enjoy the same tax benefits on this service budget. As a result, your bicycle maintenance and repair are also a lot less expensive than if you would pay for it yourself.

You also don't have to care about paperwork with o2o leasing. Is your bicycle maintenance or repair ready? o2o settles directly with your bicycle mechanic.

the road to freedom

You want to trust that your new bicycle will take you wherever you need to be. We can understand that. That is why we have a number of special bicycle insurance policies for you. So you can always count on your steel – or is it aluminum – steed as a loyal ally. The tax advantage also applies to these insurance policies.

  • Your theft insurance guarantees a brand new bicycle if yours is stolen.

  • Your breakdown assistance insurance rushes out to help you in the event of a breakdown on the road. 24/24, 7 days a week, throughout the Benelux.

  • Your liability insurance reimburses all physical and material damage of the other party in the event of an accident, even if you are in the wrong.

  • With your warranty insurance you extend the factory warranty until the end of your lease contract.

  • You are also entitled to a replacement bicycle if the repair of your bicycle or the delivery of your new bicycle takes longer than 8 working days. That way you'll never run out of your favourite mode of transport!

Popular questions

With bicycle leasing, you as an employee rent a bicycle via your employer for a period of three or four years. You pay the rent of your bicycle monthly with a part of your gross salary. When you would have that part of gross salary paid out, then a number of taxes would be deducted from it. That leaves you with a lot less net. Think of NSSO, taxes and employer contributions, etc. You do not pay these taxes if you use that piece of gross salary to pay for your bicycle lease. That means that this amount of your gross salary can go entirely to your bicycle. Whereas otherwise you would just give it to the state. The net salary you receive is now recalculated on the reduced gross salary. So you are left with a little less net income. But that does not outweigh the cycling benefit you do. Have you reached the end of your ride? After the lease period, you pay a small amount (16% or 20% of the list price, more details can be found in the Cycling policy) to take over your bicycle.
Three or four years. It depends on the agreement with your employer.
Have you come to the end of your journey? Then there are two options: You can take over your bicycle at bargain price. The residual value amounts to 16% or 20% of the list price and also applies to accessories (more information can be found in the Cycling policy or in myo2o Biker under Your bikes(s)). Or you can leave your bicycle to o2o and return it free of charge to an agreed location. This way, you contribute to a sustainable world and save your bicycle from the scrap heap. Because our partner Decathlon will pick up your bicycle at the end of the lease period, repair it and return it to the market. Has the lease contract ended and the bicycle taken over or returned? Then you can start a new lease contract, if your employer allows you to, and choose a new bike. Will you choose your trusted brand, a different type of bicycle or the smartest sports model? All roads are open again ...
In order to be exempt from paying tax on the Benefit in kind (like for a company car), you have to use your bicycle regularly for commuting. The legislation does not specify exactly how much "regularly" means. Usually, you determine this in consultation with your employer. For most employers, the target is 20%. This means that on average, one in five days on a yearly basis, you commute to work by bicycle.
Certainly! Your bicycle is insured for the use by your family members and colleagues. It's up to you whether you want to share your bicycle with them. Of course, the idea is that you cycle enough with it yourself. Usually, this means that you cycle to work 20% of the time (on an annual basis) so that the Benefit in kind exemption is justified. Your company's cycling policy states the exact target figure.
Do you already have a company car? No problem. You can also lease a bike through your employer and enjoy all the tax benefits. Are you entitled to a bicycle allowance through your employer? Then you will also receive this amount for the days that you cycle to work.
A lease bicycle is not considered as a Benefit in kind by the government. This means that, unlike company cars, you do not have to pay extra costs for this. The only condition is that you regularly cycle to work.
If you end your employment contract, your participation in your employer's bicycle plan automatically stops. In that case, there are two options: You take over your bicycle for a certain fee, which depends on the already completed term of your lease. Of course, this takeover price will be higher than when you complete the term of the lease contract. The longer your contract runs, the greater the benefit of leasing. You hand in your bicycle and pay a termination fee (determined at the start of the contract). Would you like to know what costs are involved in an early termination of a contract? You can! Simulating the costs, such as the acquisition cost or termination cost, is easy in myo2o Biker. Have you gone through the simulation of an early termination and do you want to terminate your contract? Then contact your HR manager to start the end of contract procedure.
Your gross salary is used to calculate a number of social benefits and extra advantages: Statutory pension Benefit in case of maternity leave, illness, unemployment or an accident at work Holiday allowance End-of-year bonus Group insurance Theoretically, you can have a 'smaller' pension, less unemployment benefit, etc. But because of the gross-net ratio, the impact is so small that it is actually negligible. Especially compared to the large tax benefit of bicycle leasing. If you have any doubts about your personal situation, you better contact your company's HR department.
