Announcement:

The Finnish government has proposed ending the tax exemption for the bike benefit starting in early 2026. This is still only a proposal, and the legislation is in preparation. No changes have been made to the bike benefit yet and the benefit is still tax-free. We will share updates as soon as more information is available. Thank you for your patience – we kindly ask you to wait calmly.

We launched a petition to preserve the bicycle benefit beyond 2025—sign if it matters to you. Sign the petition now (in Finnish).

Vapaus comes in three service plans. Our Starter plan is completely free for your organisation. Pro and Enterprise plans add a monthly office fee (€9,68 and €12,90 respectively) for each active benefit bike contract. Pricing and plans
We have 1 600+ customer organisations, big and small, and from all imaginable industries. We can happily confirm that the bike benefit is a great match for any organisation that cares about employee wellbeing, the environment, and their attractiveness as an employer. Note that your employees do not need to use their benefit bikes for commuting. Get started with Vapaus bike benefit
When your employee leaves, their contract with Vapaus ends. They can choose to either buy their bike or return it to Vapaus. In some cases, they can also transfer their benefit bike contract either to a colleague within your company or to their new employer. Whatever happens, we'll make sure the bicycle doesn't become a burden for you. Contact support
Vapaus benefit bikes have the most flexible terms for employers and employees, including the best bike cancellation coverage on the market. We are a truly sustainable player with green mobility in our DNA. Also, 96% of Vapaus benefit bike users recommend the service. Check pricing and plans
Woo-hoo! Start by sending your basic company information here. We use the information to get a credit decision and speed up the process. After this, we will contact you to set up your bike benefit contract and guideline.
Yes you can. The only thing to note is that if you offer the bike benefit together with a commuter ticket benefit, their maximum combined taxable value is 3 400€ per year (per employee). The maximum taxable value of the bike benefit (1 200€ / year) means that the commuter ticket benefit's taxable value is limited to the remaining 2 200 € / year. The bike benefit does not affect any other benefits, like lunch, culture, or car benefit.
