In company bike leasing, two types of contracts are crucial: the Framework Leasing Agreement and the Service Agreement. This article explains the differences, contents, and why both contracts are necessary.
Framework Leasing Agreement
- Concluded between the employer (lessee) and the leasing company (lessor).
- Regulates the framework conditions for all individual leasing agreements, including:
- Payment modalities
- Contract terms
- Insurance
- Data protection
- Requirement: positive credit check and legitimation of the employer.
- The Framework Leasing Agreement is the basis for cooperation and applies to all company bikes in the business.
Service Agreement
- Concluded between the employer and Bikeleasing-Service.
- Contains the leasing parameters that the employer sets for their employees:
- Number of bikes per employee
- Price limits (minimum and maximum value)
- Mandatory insurance
- Dealer selection
- Important: The Service Agreement releases the employer from the put option of the leasing company.
Why both contracts?
- The Framework Leasing Agreement regulates the legal relationship between the employer and the lessor.
- The Service Agreement defines the operational requirements for use by employees.
- Together, they form the basis for all individual leasing agreements.
