Your employer decides which budget or budgets you have, how much they are and what you can use them for. The app shows your balance per budget.
Types of budget
- Tax-free budget: an exchange of part of your gross salary, holiday allowance or bonus, without paying income tax on it. See Tax-free budget explained.
- Employer contribution budget: an extra contribution from your employer, monthly or one-off. A monthly budget arrives in your account on the 1st of the month.
- Gift budget: for example for your birthday or work anniversary.
Saving up
- You can save up budget for one-off purchases, up to the maximum your employer sets. Anything above that expires automatically.
- You cannot use saved budget for monthly benefits, such as a gym subscription. The subscription cannot cost more than your monthly budget.
- Tax-free budgets almost always expire at the end of the year. So make sure you use them in time.
My budget hasn't arrived or is wrong
Your budget is based on information your employer provides. A new contract or different hours can change your budget. First ask your HR department whether you are entitled to the amount. If so and it still hasn't arrived after the expected date, email us.
