All things benefit bikes and sustainable mobility

Edit: We will update this page whenever new information becomes available. What does this mean for our customers? The proposal would affect all employees and employers in Finland who use or offer the bike benefit. However, no changes have been made to the benefit at this stage, and it remains tax-free. It is likely that the benefit will remain tax-exempt at least until the end of 2025. In other words – nothing is changing right now, and no action is required from our customers.

One of the most striking findings in our ESG Report is our improved Net Impact Score, which rose from 71 to 75. This rise reflects how our unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility – combined with practical programs like benefit bike leasing – can generate meaningful results. In 2024 alone, more than 10,000 new benefit bike users signed on with us, indicating a strong appetite for commuting options that enhance both employee well-being and carbon reduction.

Finnish employee bike benefit pioneer Vapaus has completed a EUR 10 million Series A funding round. This equity-based funding will support international expansion, software development, platform automation, and the growth of its unique PreCycled concept for the second-hand market of bikes.
