Green Commute Initiative 'Cycle to Work' Partners

URBAN ELECTRO is pleased to announce that we are now official partners with the GCI cycle to work scheme, which can save you up to 47% on the purchase of an E bike.

How does it work?

Cycle to work schemes allows employers to offer employees the use of a bike for commuting in exchange for a salary sacrifice.  The salary sacrifice enables the employees to use their gross pay to reimburse the employer for the cost of the bike.  The gross pay is before tax, so the employee saves the tax and national insurance which would have been due on the amount sacrificed (32%, 42% or 47%).  It also allows employees to spread the cost over monthly pay packets, making the acquisition more affordable.

Employers can typically save 13.8% of the total value of the salary sacrifice, due to the reductions in Employers’ NI contributions.  The savings will reduce slightly if the employer has opted to use third party finance or if 30-day terms has been agreed.
