Why is DASH better than traditional Cycle to Work schemes?
Better employee experience - As the only provider to combine purchases, flexible bike/e-bike subscriptions, and bike share providers, DASH gives employees more choice when it comes to getting a bike. DASH has the largest cycling catalogue in the UK, and our online store means employees get instant access to these products without the clunky vouchers used by other schemes.
No cost - There’s no requirement for your company to fund the scheme upfront or enter into finance agreements.
Less admin - We’ve made running a cycle-to-work scheme easier than ever. Our easy-to-use platform takes just 15 minutes to set up and only 10 minutes a month to manage.
How much will DASH cost my business?
Nothing! There are no setup costs or fixed fees to use DASH. Unlike other Cycle to Work schemes there is also no requirement to pay upfront or enter into financing agreements to pay for your employees items - we take care of that for you.
Therefore whether you choose to pay upfront or monthly, pass on your tax savings to your employees or not, DASH should either run at a surplus or be completely cost neutral.
How much will my employees save with DASH?
Typically, employees can expect to save between 28% and 47% depending on their income tax band. However, if a particular item is on sale, then the total savings can be over 80%.
I already have a Cycle to Work scheme, can I still use DASH?
Absolutely - while we do everything other schemes do and more, we’re also more than happy to work alongside your existing scheme to give your employees more choice and flexibility.
