Official Supplier to the Cycle to Work Scheme

Buy a bike through the cycle-to-work scheme and pay for it over time, tax-free!

The scheme allows you to spend up to €1500 on your e-bike, which is then exempt from tax.

About the scheme

The cycle-to-work scheme has recently been extended to €1500 to allow for e-bikes. Your employer will buy the bicycle for you, and you may make a “salary sacrifice” over a set period of time (usually around 12 months). The scheme means that some employees can save up to €765 in tax. Your employer isn’t obliged to take part in the scheme although most will. For full details of the scheme click here.

Below we have given examples of the savings that can be made with the Cycle-to-Work scheme. For more information contact our team.

The cycle to work scheme covers the cost of e-bikes up to €1,500.

If your e-bike is above this price, you still use the cycle to work scheme, but you will have to pay the excess upfront.

E.g. your chosen e-bike costs €2,500.  You pay €1,000 upfront, and €1,500 on the cycle to work scheme.  Tax savings are on the €1,500 covered by the scheme.

It costs around €0.35 to fully charge an e-bike battery in Ireland

This will provide a range of around 70 km

Per-kilometre charging cost is around €0.005

Yes, accessories like helmets, locks, and lights are included under the scheme.
