End of the leasing period – now what?

Leasing end-spurt: We'll remind you!

Is the end of the lease approaching? Don't worry – with us, you won't be able to miss the exit! We will automatically contact you about 12 weeks before the end of your lease. As a rule, you will then receive an offer from us to take over the bike and you can decide at your leisure whether you want to keep your company bike or return it. We will also support you in the home straight and make the last steps in the leasing process as easy as possible for you.

Option 1. Take over your company bike

Would you like to take over your company bike at the end of the leasing period? We're happy to help! This is how the takeover process works:
 

• Log in to the Bikeleasing portal: Log in to the Bikeleasing portal with your Bikeleasing user ID and select the “employee” profile.
• Select contract options: On the home page, click on the expiring contract and select “Decision to purchase bike at end of lease” under “Options”.
• Purchase offer and address entry: We will usually send you a purchase offer for your company bike before the end of the lease. If you accept the offer (and want to take over the bike), enter your address for invoicing.
• Set up a SEPA direct debit: Fill in the SEPA form so that we can collect the purchase price as per our offer.

That's it! You can continue to use your company bike after the leasing period. The purchase price (incl. VAT) will be debited automatically from your account.

Option 2. Return your company bike

You don't want to take over your company bike after the leasing period? Then proceed as follows:
 

• Log in to the Bikeleasing portal: Log in to the Bikeleasing portal with your Bikeleasing user ID and select the “employee” profile.
• Select contract options: Click on the expiring contract on the home page and select “Decide to take over the bike at the end of the lease” under “Options”.
• Return process: If you decide not to keep the bike, you will receive a return confirmation and can return your bike, including any leased accessories, to the bike dealer.

Note: Your company bike must be in proper condition at the time of handover. Please report any existing defects or damage to the Bikeleasing-Service via our portal by the end of the leasing period. Normal signs of wear and tear are not a problem when returning the bike – after all, it is a used item.

Another tip: our Bikeleasing wear and tear insurance can be a good choice to cover unexpected repairs. It can also be used shortly before return to have any wear and tear repaired and ensures that you are fully covered. Find out more in our insurance and service manual.

How much is the purchase price at the end of the lease?

We can only make you a binding purchase offer for your company bike shortly before the end of the leasing period. The final installment you have to pay if you want to take over your company bike depends on the price of the leased bike. As a rule, we can offer employees the bike at a purchase price of just 18% of the MSRP.

The biggest savings on company bike leasing are made when the contract is in place for the entire regular term. An early termination is not only financially less attractive, but is actually not even planned. In special cases – such as termination, a termination agreement, a long-term illness or if employees go on parental leave – however, individual solutions can be considered. Please contact your employer, who will decide how to proceed in such situations. No matter what you decide after the end of the lease – at the end of the contract, you have the option of deciding again in favor of a company bike through us and your employer.
