WELCOME TO THE CYCLE BENEFIT SCHEME APPLICATION PORTAL

The cycle benefits scheme gives you access to a Tax and NI Free salary sacrifice arrangement that gives you a super cost-effective way of getting a brand-new bike, cycling equipment or both.

You can save up to 42%* of the usual cost depending on the amount of tax and national insurance (NI) you usually pay and can use the bike for your journey to work (or part of it) and for leisure purposes - Lots more info in our Frequently Asked Questions.

Examples - If you went to the shop buy a bike, helmet, lights and high vis and the cost was £200 then you pay £200!

If you get the same equipment via the cycle benefit scheme and earn less than £50270 it would cost £136 and if you earn over £50271 it would be £116 with the added benefit of being able to spread the cost.

The maximum value for your organisation is £3,000 with payments spread over 12 months.
