A cafeteria plan – what is that exactly?
What exactly is a cafeteria plan? The cafeteria plan is a personalised salary package that gives employees the digital ability to make part of their gross salary or end-of-year bonus, among other things, more flexible for a fringe benefit of their choice. As such, they can better align their reward package to their personal needs and lifestyle.
Fringe benefits often chosen are:
- Bicycle leasing
- Pension savings
- Extra holidays
- Multimedia
- Cars
Bicycle leasing is a valuable way to build a better relationship with your employees, it is also a tool to attract new talent and it is a sustainable mobility solution.

Bicycle leasing: an indispensable benefit in your cafeteria plan
Bicycle leasing is a popular option in the cafeteria plan thanks to the increased focus on sustainability and health. So it’s no wonder it’s among the top five most chosen fringe benefits. Moreover, a lease bike also contributes to your employees’ general satisfaction and involvement, and all this in a tax-friendly way. So it’s a win-win!
Flexible pay: how does that work?
How does flexible pay work through a cafeteria plan in practice? Many companies call upon a flexible reward provider as an external partner for this. The most well-known ‘flexible reward partners’ or ‘flex partners’ make their expertise available through a cafeteria plan and digitalised payroll processing.
