The SEPA direct debit mandate is a mandatory part of the company bike leasing process. It enables proper processing of payments between the employer and the lessor. This article explains why the mandate is required and how it is used.
Why is the SEPA mandate necessary?
- Company bike leasing is a commercial leasing model.
- The employer is the contractual partner of the lessor and authorizes the lessor through the SEPA mandate to collect the leasing rates from the business account.
- The collections are then passed on to the employee via payroll (salary conversion), unless otherwise regulated in the service contract.
What is billed via the SEPA mandate?
- Leasing rates for all active individual leasing contracts
- Insurance and service packages
- Any employer subsidies or additional benefits
How is the SEPA mandate granted?

No, it must be a business account of the employer.
