Deutsche Dienstrad is a leading bicycle leasing service in Germany. They partner with employers to offer their employees the chance to lease a bike (including e-bikes) as a company benefit. You can use your bike for private or business purposes, and it's fully insured during the leasing term.
Leasing through Deutsche Dienstrad is done through monthly payments, which come directly out of your salary. These payments are taken pre-tax, offering you up to 40% off the standard RRP.
You can include any accessory that can be permanently attached to the company bike in the lease. You cannot include clothing, helmets, or accessories, so you'll have to buy those separately! A lock with a minimum purchase price of >48 € gross must be purchased when leasing a bike, which is added automatically to the shopping cart.
If you leave the company before the end of the 36-month contract period, there are a range options available – find out more on the Deutsche Dienstrad website.
