How do I transfer my benefit bike?

You can transfer your benefit bike to a new employer or a colleague during the leasing period. When you change jobs, you don't always need to return or redeem the bike – you can transfer it!

 

Important: Benefit bike agreements accepted on or after 24 April 2025 are no longer tax-exempt after 1 January 2026. If you transfer your bike to a new employer, the transfer is considered a new benefit and is taxable based on the bike's full market value.

What you need to know about bike transfers

Start the transfer at least a month before your intended transfer date: Transfer form.

  1. Only the bike and accessories are transferred, not the existing contract or additional services.
  2. Transfers are timed to the first day of the month, even if you change jobs mid-month.
  3. Transfer fees may apply.
  4. Your leasing duration, monthly taxable value, and redemption value may change.

Transfer options

Confirm with your new employer that they accept the transfer before starting the transfer.

  1. Transfer to new employer's Vapaus benefit

    The bike can be transferred to your new employer's existing bike benefit (requires the employer's consent). Since the contract cannot be paused, the transfer should happen immediately when the employer changes. Transfers are not possible if the employment has already ended.

  1. Transfer to a colleague in working for the same employer

    The bike can be transferred to a colleague working for the same employer. This requires a written consent from employees and an approved benefit access request for your colleague.

  2. Transfer from another leasing company to Vapaus

    If your new employer uses a different leasing company, we negotiate with the current leasing company to transfer the bike. After that, we'll create a new leasing contract for the bike based on your new employer's bike benefit guidelines.

  3. Transfer from Vapaus to another leasing company

    If your new employer uses a different leasing company, we negotiate with the new leasing company to transfer the bike. After that the new leasing company creates a new leasing contract for the bike based on your new employer's bike benefit guidelines.
