Plus Benefits.
Workride Plus is a free bike benefit program designed with NZ’s largest enterprises and government organisations to meet their internal finance rules.
-
Simple monthly billing that aligns with your businesses typical billing and removes the need for upfront payment of the ride benefit.
No credit risk to your organisation, just a simply monthly bill for any active bike benefits in use. -
We know that life happens. If an employee on the Workride Plus plan leaves your company, they have a simple, flexible choice:
Return the Bike: They can return it for a reasonable return, inspection, and delivery fee.
Settlement of the Bike: On returning the equipment, our flexible exit policy allows the employee to request a settlement, keeping their bike, and helping Workride recover outstanding costs.
This provides a simple process for your employee, and complete peace of mind for your organisation as we manage the risk. Any settlement option is intended solely to help Workride recover the outstanding benefit costs related to this specific bike benefit provision.
The entire process is managed directly between Workride and the employee. For your organisation, this means zero financial risk and zero administrative hassle. You're completely protected.

Max vs. Plus
Workride has two programs, Workride Max, for all employers, and Workride Plus, our free fully funded bike benefit program for Government & Enterprise that are constrained by finance rules.
-
Workride Plus is designed specifically for our enterprise and government partners who require a monthly billing model with no upfront payment. To make this possible while ensuring the program remains completely risk-free for your business, we work with external providers to cover the real-world costs of financing , risk management, and insurance.
These costs are transparently included in the employee's 12-month salary sacrifice. Here is a simple breakdown of what they cover.
Financing & Admin Costs (10%): To offer a simple monthly bill, Workride pays the bike retailer the full amount upfront. We then finance this cost over the 12-month term with a third-party lender. This financing arrangement is directly between Workride and the lender; there is no involvement, credit risk, or responsibility for your organisation. The cost to cover this financing is included in the employee's bike benefit salary sacrifice. A key feature of Workride Plus is the flexible return policy. A small cost is also included to cover the insurance, risk, and administrative costs required to protect against defaults and manage this flexible process.
By bundling these necessary costs, we can offer a powerful trade-off: your business gets to provide a world-class bike benefit with zero upfront cost and zero risk, completely cost neutral for you, and your employees still receive a fantastic 25-59% offset on their new bike.
-
We believe offering a great benefit shouldn't cost you a thing. Our program is 100% free for your business to sign up and offer. There are no setup fees, no monthly charges, and no hidden costs, ever.
Our model is simple: we partner with every single (98%) of bike retailers retailers in New Zealand to be able to offer this to your team. It is a true win-win-win that allows you to provide a world-class benefit to your team at zero cost to your business. -
Our Max Program is the gold standard, trusted by almost 1,500 Kiwi businesses. This is our original, proven model that uses a robust, trust-based legal process to deliver the full 32-63% saving to your employees.
We also created Workride Plus after listening to our largest partners. This program is specifically designed for Enterprise and Government organisations who face cashflow constraints or legislative rules (like the Public Finance Act) that make upfront funding impossible. It provides the flexibility they need to offer a world-class bike benefit from a trust kiwi provider.
The right program for your needs.
Our Standard Program is funded upfront, delivering the maximum saving for employees: a massive 32-63%. Our Workride Plus program removes the upfront cost, using simple 12-monthly installments. This model includes all financing and insurance fees for a fantastic 20-30% employee saving, while remaining 100% cost-neutral for your business.
Cashflow positive process.
Our monthly billing is cashflow positive. The process is simple:, you collect an employee's salary sacrifice deduction before your monthly payment to us is due. This means your business is never out of pocket and always holds the funds first, ensuring a smooth and financially sound process for your team.
What if an employee leaves?
If an employee leaves during the initial term, our flexible exit policy gives them a choice: they can buy the bike outright for the remaining amount or return it for a reasonable return and delivery fee. This provides a simple process your employee and complete peace of mind for your business as you are never on the hook.
Flexible & peace of mind.
Workride manages the entire process when an employee's benefit needs to be cancelled. All you need to do is notify us, and our team takes over from there. We'll work directly with your employee to guide them through our flexible exit options, ensuring a smooth and simple offboarding experience for everyone.
The Plus difference.
Workride Plus was co-designed by Government & Enterprise partners that want to use Workride to support their people to commute by bike.
