🔍What exactly is the residual value of a leasing contract?
-
- The residual value is the value of your bike and accessories left to pay at the end of the contract period.
- With Vapaus Benefit Bikes, the residual value varies depending on the contract between 1-30% of the purchase price of the bike and accessories.
- Always remember to check your employer's benefit bike guide, which mentions the residual value of your benefit bike as a percentage at the end of the leasing period☝️
Exceptions regarding maintenance budget:
If your contract includes a maintenance budget and you have used it more than you have accumulated, the difference will be charged separately through your Vapaus user account.
If you haven't used the accumulated maintenance budget by the end of the leasing period, you will lose the right to the rest of the maintenance budget, and it will no longer be usable after the end of the leasing period.
