Once your employer has launched the benefit, you can order your company bike from our wide selection.

With a bike benefit, you can save up to ~20–30% of the bike price compared to, for example, a cash purchase or consumer credit. You don't need a large capital, downpayment or upfront fee – you pay for it effortlessly gradually from your salary. The monthly installment is typically 27–200 €/month – you decide.
You cannot get a benefit bike before your employer has launched the benefit into use. Don't let this stop you: Tell your employer about Vapaus
We know that life happens and things change, so you can always end your Vapaus contract early if needed. In other words, you are not married for life to the benefit bike. When ending the contract, you can choose whether to buy the bicycle or return it to us. Contact us or end the contract in the Vapaus app.

You deserve to ride a nice bike, right?

No. You can use your Vapaus benefit bike for anything you like, including leisure rides, hobbies, and commuting, but you do not need to ride one meter to or from your workplace unless you want to.
Yes, and in fact the majority of Vapaus users choose an e-bike. You can get any type of e-bike with electric assistance and power up to 25 km/h and 250 W. Also, remember to check that the price of the e-bike is within the limit of your organisation's bike benefit terms, or that you are allowed to pay the exceeding amount with cash.
A benefit bike is a normal bicycle or an e-bike that you acquire through a bike benefit leasing contract. Note that your employer must first offer the bike benefit for you, before you can get a benefit bicycle. 
Your bike choice ultimately depends on what you plan to use the bike for, and on other preferences you may have. You can for instance get a hybrid, road, gravel, mountain, or commuter bike. 
The bike benefit is, above all, a cost-smart way to acquire a high-quality and more valuable bike (such as an electric bike) without a large one-time investment. Thanks to the new bike benefit, you can save up to 30% on the purchase price of a bike compared to buying it in cash. In addition, the Vapaus bike benefit always includes insurance and flexible terms: you can always exchange or return the bike if your life situation changes at a reasonable cost. This benefit is made for everyday life, not just on paper!
