How do I save?
Cycle-to-work is a salary sacrifice benefit which means the cost of your subscription gets deducted from your pre-tax (gross) salary. This is before tax and National Insurance are calculated, so you pay less tax and National Insurance overall.
The cost of your annual bike subscription is spread over 12 months and deducted from your monthly pre-tax salary. By spreading the cost of your annual bike subscription over 12 months, you enjoy the convenience of smaller, more manageable payments
What could I save?
This depends on your income tax bracket.
| TAX BAND | ANNUAL SALARY | YOU SAVE |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | Less than £50,234 | 28% |
| Higher | More than £50,234 | 42% |
| Additional | More than £120,121 | 47% |

How does the Cycle to Work scheme work?

Salary sacrifice means giving up part of your salary in exchange for the bike rental subscription. This reduces your taxable income, resulting in potential savings on income tax and National Insurance contributions.
