Financially attractive
Save on social security contributions and taxes by converting your salary when leasing an electric motorcycle: As with company bikes, employees can save up to 40% compared to buying a company moped.
Employee benefit
The Bonfire is an attractive option for employees' urban mobility. The e-mopeds can be offered in addition to the company bike.
No fees
E-motorcycle leasing is 100% cost-neutral for employers. Part of the gross salary is converted with the leasing rate via "salary conversion".

How it works
You can find all documents in our Drive: Drive-Link
Registration
Fill out the registration form in just 5 minutes and create a leasing contract for your employee (we have a template). After successful verification, you will receive access to the Jobroller online portal so that you can manage the lease digitally.
PS: We also have a checklist in our Drive to help you keep track.
Portal
As soon as you have your access, send us an e-mail to [email protected] with the desired Bonfire for your employee. We will then create the official order in the Jobroller portal and from now on you just have to wait.
Delivery
As soon as the Bonfire is delivered, you will receive a message by e-mail. If you receive the Bonfire and everything fits, you can confirm in the e-mail that the Bonfire has arrived.
Authorization
With your Bonfire , you will also receive your papers, invoice and all information on how to get a license plate. With the transfer contract, the Bonfire can be purchased up to 40% cheaper than when you buy it.
Jobroller advantages
The Jobroller service has two decisive advantages. Firstly, fully comprehensive insurance is already included, which means you only have to pay for liability insurance for the Bonfire . Secondly, the inspections are free of charge for you.
End of lease
After three years, the leasing contract ends and you can either lease a new moped or buy your current moped for the remaining amount.
Calculate your monthly savings
The salary conversion reduces the taxable gross salary and therefore also the social security contributions and taxes. As the Bonfire is a low-cost electric vehicle, the non-cash benefit is also small and therefore your net salary is only reduced by a small amount.

You have questions and we have answers:
What is deferred compensation?
The conversion amount is the amount that is deducted from your gross salary. Your employer will provide you with the Jobroller in return.
As a rule, the conversion amount is made up of the leasing rate and the rate for service/maintenance. Any additional employer subsidy reduces the conversion rate further.
When is a company car or motorcycle worthwhile?
Leasing via salary conversion is particularly worthwhile for inexpensive vehicles with electric drive and if the commute to work is as short as possible.
Why is this the case? The reason lies in the non-cash benefit, this amount is deducted from your net salary and is calculated according to the criteria mentioned above.
1% rule: 1% of the gross purchase price is assumed as the basis for the non-cash benefit if you have a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. The cheaper the vehicle, the lower the non-cash benefit.
0.25% rule: The monetary benefit of electric vehicles is only calculated at 0.25% of the gross purchase price because they do not emit any CO2. This means that the monetary benefit is four times smaller for the same purchase price.
Commute: The length of the commute also determines the monetary benefit. The shorter the journey, the lower the benefit.
As the Bonfire is a low-cost electric vehicle and is mainly used for short distances of up to 40 km, it is ideal for employer leasing because the costs for the employee are low.
Does the 0.25 % rule apply to Bonfire?
Yes!
The same tax regulations apply to company e-scooters as to motor vehicles (Section 6 No. 4 EStG). The costs according to the list price for electric motorcycles including special equipment, including VAT, are only to be assessed at one quarter ("0.25% rule") if the motor vehicle has no carbon dioxide emissions per kilometer driven.
This means that the tax advantage is four times lower than for conventional company cars with combustion engines.
Bonfire via salary conversion is significantlycheaper thana purchase due to the tax advantage. Use the calculator below to work out how much you'll save and contact our customer service team for more information ([email protected]).
