  • Forest or Lime? A commuter’s guide to London’s two biggest e-bike providers

    Forest or Lime? A commuter’s guide to London’s two biggest e-bike providers

    Londoners are increasingly turning to bike share for their daily commute – not just as a backup, but as a genuine alternative to trains, tubes and buses. 

    And with TfL’s tube fares due to increase again in March 2026 – who can blame them?

    While there are many brilliant providers to choose from, two names come up more than any others – Forest and Lime.

    At first glance, both providers offer dockless e-bikes you can unlock with an app and ride across the city. But as commuting becomes part of a daily routine, many riders find themselves gravitating towards one or the other, based on things like pricing, parking and how each service fits into their day-to-day work travel.

    We have put together a clear, commuter-focused comparison to help you decide which provider fits your routine best.

    Forest 

    Forest is a widely recognised bike share operator in London and is best known for offering free ride time, which makes it a popular choice for short, regular trips around the city.

    With Forest, the way pay-as-you-go rides work is slightly different from the standard per-minute pricing you’ll find with Lime. Forest charges a £1 unlock fee, but this is paired with free ride minutes that are allocated to specific bikes – a model designed to reward riders for choosing bikes the network wants moved around the city.

    Alongside pay-as-you-go riding, Forest also offers a range of in-app ride bundles and short-term subscriptions, which can significantly reduce the cost per minute compared to paying ad hoc.

    These bundles vary in size and validity – from short, low-commitment passes to larger monthly options – and are designed to suit everything from occasional rides to more regular commuting. As bundle size increases, the effective cost per minute typically drops, making them a popular choice for frequent riders.

    Forest e-bike bundled pricing

    Bundle/ SubscriptionPriceValidityApprox. £/min
    20 mins£2.9924 hours£0.15
    35 mins£3.9924 hours£0.11
    70 mins£6.993 days£0.10

    1200 minute subscription£70Monthly£0.06
    CycleSaver 1800 minute subscription£47.70 – £64.80Monthly£0.03 – £0.04

    Following a recent update, Forest moved away from its simple “10 free minutes every day” model to a more dynamic system. Individual bikes now come with between 1 to 30 free minutes attached, and riders can boost this allowance further by watching short ads in the app. The result is a more flexible, sometimes very low-cost ride – particularly for shorter journeys – depending on which bike you choose.

    So, how does Forest work in practice?

    1. Download the Forest app and create an account.
    1. Find a bike by searching the map for your nearest available e-bike. Once you’ve found one, tap Rent now to unlock it.
    1. Enjoy the ride, using any free minutes attached to the bike before pay-as-you-go charges apply.
    1. Park responsibly at the end of your journey. Parking rules vary by borough, but the app will guide you through the process when you try to end your ride, helping you avoid unexpected fines.

    Lime 

    Lime is one of the most recognisable bike share providers in London and across the UK – partly due to its unmissable lime green colour palette, and partly thanks to its dense network of e-bikes across the city. That visibility makes Lime a reliable option for everyday commuting as well as longer, more spontaneous journeys.

    Lime’s pay-as-you-go pricing follows a more traditional model than Forest. Riders pay an unlock fee (typically £1), followed by a fixed per-minute rate for the duration of the ride. There are no free minutes attached to individual bikes, which means pricing is consistent regardless of which e-bike you choose.

    Lime also offers in-app ride passes and bundles, designed for riders who use Lime regularly. These include a set amount of ride time for a fixed price and remove unlock fees, helping bring down the effective cost per minute compared to PAYG trips. As with most bundles, larger passes tend to offer better value, making them a popular option for commuters who want predictable monthly costs.

    CycleSaver 1000 minute subscription£99.9931 days£0.05 – £0.07

    So, how does Lime work in practice?

    1. Download the Lime app and set up your account.
    1. Find a nearby e-bike using the in-app map and scan the QR code or tap “Ride” to unlock.
    1. Ride for as long as you need, with charges accruing per minute after the unlock fee.
    1. End your ride in a permitted parking area. Lime uses geofencing and in-app prompts to guide correct parking and help avoid fines.

    Where CycleSaver fits in

    CycleSaver unlocks a different way to commute by bike share.

    Whether you’re a loyal Lime rider or prefer Forest, CycleSaver gives employees access to monthly ride bundles at up to 47% less, thanks to the tax benefits of salary sacrifice.

    Subscriptions remove unlock fees and turn unpredictable ride costs into a fixed monthly benefit – making bike share easier to budget for as part of everyday work travel.

  • Lime chosen to run West Midlands bike hire scheme – What this means for everyday travel 

    Lime chosen to run West Midlands bike hire scheme – What this means for everyday travel 

    The West Midlands is gearing up for a major upgrade to everyday travel.

    From April 2026, popular bike share operator Lime will run the region’s official bike hire scheme, bringing thousands of shared e-bikes and e-scooters to towns and cities across the region.

    It’s a clear signal that shared micromobility is no longer a trial or a “nice to have” – it’s becoming a core part of how UK cities help people move around affordably, sustainably and without relying on car ownership.

    More than 2,000 bikes and e-scooters will be rolled out acrossBirmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton, creating one of the UK’s largest shared mobility networks outside of London.

    A scheme that doesn’t cost taxpayers money

    One of the most significant aspects of this announcement is how the scheme will be funded.

    For the first time, the West Midlands’ bike hire scheme will operate at no cost to taxpayers. Under the new agreement, Lime will fully fund the service, removing the need for public subsidy while keeping the scheme running at scale. According to Zag Daily, cycle hire in the region has previously cost around £1.4 million a year to run.

    Lime has also committed to keeping its overall prices stable for at least two years, helping ensure that shared bikes and scooters remain an affordable option for everyday journeys. 

    A win for everyday active travel

    The West Midlands is home to more than six million people, with busy city centres and town hubs spread across a large and diverse region. Making it easier to travel short distances without a car through bike share schemes like this can have a meaningful impact on daily life.

    This new scheme supports:

    • Fewer short car journeys on congested roads
    • Less pollution and better air quality in urban centres
    • More accessible and affordable options for commuting, errands and social trips

    Next steps from Lime

    Lime will operate a fully electrified fleet, covering both e-bikes and e-scooters, and will work closely with local authorities to grow the network over time.

    Initially, e-scooters will be available in Birmingham and at the University of Warwick campus, with scope to expand as the scheme evolves.

    The partnership with the West Midlands Combined Authority is designed to integrate shared micromobility into the region’s wider transport plans, rather than treating it as a standalone service.

    Why this matters to us at CycleSaver

    At CycleSaver, we’re on a mission to make everyday cycling easier, cheaper and more flexible through bike share.

    This announcement reinforces what we see across the UK – when cities invest in shared bikes and scooters, people use them. Removing upfront costs and long-term commitments lowers the barrier to entry and helps active travel fit around real life.

    The West Midlands scheme reflects many of the core values we built CycleSaver around:

    • Affordability – fair pricing and no ownership costs
    • Flexibility – ride when it suits you, without long-term commitment
    • Accessibility – shared bikes that work for commuting and everyday travel

    Through CycleSaver, employees can already access bike share and e-bike subscriptions via salary sacrifice, saving up to 47% while using the same services they would otherwise pay for out of pocket.

    What’s next for shared micromobility?

    As the West Midlands prepares for its biggest shared mobility launch yet, this partnership sets an important precedent. Public authorities and private operators working together cohesively can deliver large-scale, affordable micromobility without placing additional strain on public budgets.

    For riders, it means more choice. 

    For cities, it means progress towards cleaner, healthier transport systems. 

    And for employers and employees, it underlines why shared bikes are becoming a central part of modern commuting – and something that should be prioritised when it comes to employee benefits.

    Want to make bike hire even more affordable for your employees?

    CycleSaver lets employees use bike share and e-bike subscriptions through salary sacrifice – saving up to 47% on everyday cycling, with no upfront cost or long-term commitment.

    Whether you’re commuting occasionally or riding every day, CycleSaver makes shared bikes work for you.

  • New year, new commute: why cycling to work is the resolution that’ll actually stick

    New year, new commute: why cycling to work is the resolution that’ll actually stick

    We’ve all been there. 

    January arrives and we have the best intentions for the year ahead. Move more, feel better, save money – and by February most of our resolutions have quietly faded away. 

    But, the problem isn’t a lack of motivation. It’s the friction of finding time to incorporate a new habit into our already busy lives.

    That’s why a new commute is one of the most realistic New Year’s resolutions you can make. 

    Instead of adding something new to your day, simply change how you do it. 

    Cycling to work – especially via shared city bikes like Lime, Forest, Santander Cycles and more – turns a daily necessity into a habit that delivers all the benefits we look for in a New Years resolution.

    Five reasons why cycling to work is a New Year’s resolution that pays off

    1. Active travel that fits into your real life

      We see it time and time again – people want to be more active, but struggle to find the time. Cycling to work solves that problem for you – you get your daily movement done without having to carve additional time out of your day.

      By building movement into your commute, you:

      • Get regular, low-impact exercise without scheduling expensive gym sessions
      • Improve cardiovascular health and overall fitness
      • Stay active consistently, even on busy weeks

      It’s not about becoming a full blown athlete. It’s about moving a little bit more, more often – and that’s where the biggest health gains come from.

      2. A calmer start (and end) to your day

        Commuting can take a serious toll on our mental wellbeing. Packed train platforms, traffic, unexpected delays, lack of personal space – it all adds up.

        Cycling flips that experience on its head:

        • No overcrowded trains or buses
        • Fewer delays and more predictable journey times
        • Fresh air and natural light, even in winter

        Cycling to work helps you arrive at work more focused and leave feeling less stressed. It becomes something to help you decompress rather than something you have to put up with. 

        3. A more comfortable commute

          Comfort’s not really the first thing that comes to mind when you think about commuting.

          But, making the switch from standing shoulder to shoulder on a stuffy central line tube to cycling out in the cool, fresh air can feel like a life of luxury when it comes to comfort.

          You get to choose:

          • When you travel
          • Which route you take
          • Whether you ride the whole way or just part of the journey

          And, bike sharing schemes make it even easier. You can cycle one way, combine it with public transport, or skip a day entirely if the weather’s not on your side. 

          4. It’s cheaper than you think

            Commuting costs have a habit of creeping up on us year after year – slowly digging deeper into our pockets over time. In fact, Transport for London has already announced an increase of 5.8% to tube fares come March 2026. 

            Cycling is one of the few options that can bring those costs down.

            Compared to traditional commuting, cycling can mean:

            • Lower monthly travel costs
            • No fuel, parking, or maintenance bills

            5. It’s better for the planet

            Many people want to make more sustainable choices, but can start to feel overwhelmed by the scale of the challenge. 

            Changing your commute is one of the simplest, most impactful steps you can take.

            Cycling to work:

            • Reduces carbon emissions
            • Cuts congestion in cities
            • Supports cleaner, quieter streets

            It’s a simple, small daily action that contributes to net-zero goals without requiring a complete lifestyle overhaul.

            Why bike share makes the switch to cycling easier than ever

            We know that not everyone wants to own a bike – and increasingly, people are choosing not to.

            Bike ownership in the UK has been falling, with 2024 recording the lowest bike sales since the 1970s. At the same time, bike sharing schemes are booming, particularly in cities like London. That contrast tells a clear story.

            For many commuters, owning a bike comes with friction:

            • Concerns about theft
            • Ongoing maintenance and insurance costs
            • The upfront price of buying a bike
            • The need for storage space at home or work

            Bike share removes all of that.

            With providers like Lime, Forest, Santander Cycles and more, you can pick up a bike when you need one and drop it off when you are done – no strings attached. There is nothing to store, nothing to insure, and nothing to maintain.

            It’s simple: you ride when it suits you and skip it when it does not. That flexibility is exactly what makes bike share so appealing – and why it’s helping more people turn cycling into a habit that actually sticks.

            How CycleSaver fits in

            CycleSaver is the UK’s first cycle to work scheme designed specifically for bike share. Instead of buying a bike, employees can access discounted subscriptions to the UK’s leading bike share providers through salary sacrifice.

            With CycleSaver:

            • Employees can save up to 47% on bike share subscriptions
            • There is no bike to buy, store, or insure
            • Subscriptions are flexible and designed for real commuting patterns
            • Employers can offer a new wellbeing and sustainability benefit at no cost to the company

            It’s cycling to work, without the commitment or complexity of ownership.

            A resolution that works with your routine.

            Streets glow with world class light displays and festive markets pop up everywhere from Southbank and London Bridge to Hyde Park.

            Bath

            Bath’s Georgian streets and honey-coloured stone buildings create a truly magical setting at Christmas. The city gives off an irresistible festive energy – twinkling lights frame historic buildings while the scent of mulled wine and roasted chestnuts drift through the city centre.

            The Bath Christmas Market is one of the best in the UK, and winds its way through the most iconic landmarks, from the Abbey to the Roman Baths, making it easy to dip in and out as you explore. 

            The city centre is compact, with plenty of quiet streets and riverside routes that let you cycle easily between festive highlights without battling traffic or busy pavements.

            Edinburgh

            Edinburgh at Christmas feels like a page straight out of a fairytale. 

            With its dramatic skyline, historic alleyways and sweeping views, the city takes on an extra layer of magic during the festive season. Edinburgh Castle towers above, while markets, light trails and pop-up attractions fill the city below.

            Home to Edinburgh’s Christmas Market, Princes Street Gardens becomes the heart of the celebrations, buzzing with rides, food stalls and festive music while George Street glows with its iconic light installations. 

            Edinburgh’s hills may have a bad reputation, but shared bikes – especially shared e-bikes – make moving between neighbourhoods far easier than you might expect.

            CycleSaver’s festive must-sees:

            Cambridge offers a quieter, more intimate festive experience – perfect for those who enjoy soaking up Christmas charm at a slower pace. 

            The city’s historic colleges, cobbled lanes and riverside paths feel especially atmospheric in winter, with soft lights reflecting off old stone buildings and waterways.

            Cycling is second nature here. Flat terrain, dedicated paths and a strong cycling culture make it one of the easiest cities in the UK to explore on two wheels, even during the colder months. 

            Wrap up warm and follow the River Cam, weave through the city centre, or explore neighbourhoods like Mill Road, where independent shops and community events add to the festive buzz without the crowds.

            Warm lights glow against centuries-old stone, markets pop up in historic squares and the city takes on a cosy, traditional Christmas feel.

            The city is compact and relatively flat, making it ideal for winter cycling. Shared bikes allow you to move effortlessly between landmarks, duck into the Covered Market for seasonal treats, and explore quieter streets that are often missed by visitors on foot. Cycling also makes it easy to appreciate Oxford’s famous viewpoints – from bridges to broad streets lined with colleges – without rushing.

            Available bike share providers: Voi, Lime

            CycleSaver’s festive must-sees:

            Top tips for winter cycling this festive season

            If you’re planning to explore any of these festive cities in the UK by bike this winter, these simple tips will help you ride comfortably and confidently.

            • Layer up, but don’t overdo it: Start slightly cool and you’ll warm up quickly once you’re moving. Gloves and a windproof outer layer make a big difference.
            • Take it easy: The roads are likely to be wet during the winter, so ride smoothly, brake early and avoid sharp turns on wet or icy roads.
            • Stay visible: Winter days are shorter, so choose well-lit routes, wear reflective clothing and make sure to use additional clip-on bike lights.
            • Embrace the flexibility of shared bikes: Bike share lets you ride one way and switch plans if the weather turns, without worrying about storage or maintenance.

          2. The 2025 UK Budget: Cycle to Work and Salary Sacrifice schemes remain largely untouched

            The 2025 UK Budget: Cycle to Work and Salary Sacrifice schemes remain largely untouched

            Our key insights from the 2025 Budget

            • The Cycle to Work scheme remains untouched, despite wide speculation about reforms to salary sacrifice.
            • Commuting by bike and e-bike stays affordable and accessible, with no changes to tax-efficient savings.
            • Employers gain long-term certainty, supporting continued investment in sustainable travel benefits.

            As the dust settles on the Budget announcement from Chancellor Rachel Reeves, there’s one standout takeaway for active travel supporters:

            The Cycle to Work scheme has been left completely untouched

            After weeks of speculation – with rumours of caps, cuts or sweeping reforms – the government’s decision to keep the current framework intact sends a clear message: salary sacrifice works – and the Cycle to Work scheme continues to play a vital tool in helping employees choose low-cost, low-carbon ways to commute.

            By keeping the Cycle to Work scheme exactly as it is, the government has reaffirmed that salary sacrifice delivers meaningful value:

            • It keeps cycling and e-cycling financially accessible
            • It supports healthier commuting habits
            • It aligns with long-term transport and sustainability goals for businesses and the UK as a whole

            Stability for employers and employees

            We understand how important stability is for HR teams and benefits providers. 

            And the outcome of the 2025 Budget gives employers the certainty they need to keep offering and promoting Cycle to Work confidently.

            All while employees continue to benefit from savings of up to 47%, removing one of the biggest barriers to adopting active travel – affordability.

            What this means for the future of active travel

            We believe this decision by Councillor Reeves helps secure cycling’s role as a key part of the UK’s transport system. Keeping salary sacrifice untouched supports:

            • More people taking up cycling for the first time
            • Growth in flexible bike-share and e-bike options
            • Employers who want to champion sustainable commuting
            • Continued momentum toward a lower-carbon transport network and Net Zero goals

            Our view

            Here at CycleSaver, we have always championed the importance of Cycle to Work in making everyday cycling more affordable. 

            This year’s Budget confirms that the government sees the same value. 

            Dino Bertolis, Founder and CEO at CycleSaver said; 

            “Keeping the Cycle to Work scheme untouched is a clear vote of confidence from the Government in salary sacrifice models and their role in making commuting by bicycle and e-bike more affordable and accessible than ever. It gives employers long-term certainty and keeps cycling within reach for employees at a time when cost pressures are already high. 

            This decision supports continued growth in active travel – not just bike ownership, but flexible options like city bike hire schemes through providers such as Lime, Voi and Forest – and signals that sustainable, low-carbon commuting remains a priority for the UK Government.”

            We remain committed to helping make cycling more accessible than ever through our flexible bike-share subscriptions across the UK.

          3. The 2025 Autumn Budget: what it could mean for salary sacrifice schemes in the UK

            The 2025 Autumn Budget: what it could mean for salary sacrifice schemes in the UK

            The 2025 Autumn Budget is just around the corner, and whatever is announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves could reshape the way UK employers support their workforce. 

            With an estimated £20bn fiscal gap to close, nothing is off the table – and early signals suggest salary sacrifice schemes may be part of the government’s review.

            That means next week’s decisions could have a real impact on pensions, nursery schemes, EVs, Cycle to Work schemes and more.

            In this article, we’ll unpack the rumours, explore what these might mean for UK employers and employees, and share our take on how this could impact CycleSaver.

            So, what type of changes can we expect for salary sacrifice schemes? 

            Salary sacrifice is popular with both employers and employees because it delivers income and National Insurance tax savings for employees and National Insurance tax savings for employers.

            Employees swap part of their salary for a benefit, and the amount sacrificed is exempt from National Insurance Contributions (NICs). That’s why so many employers use salary sacrifice arrangements for pensions, bikes, EVs and more for their workforce.

            But reports ahead of the 2025 Autumn Budget indicate that this may be about to change. 

            The most widely discussed proposal is a cap of around £2,000 per year on pension salary sacrifice contributions, above which full employer and employee NI would apply. 

            But caps like this may not be limited to just pensions. In fact, several commentators suggest it could extend to other salary sacrifice benefits too.

            If applied, this would mean:

            • Employees save less money when they use salary sacrifice benefits
            • Employers lose part of the NI saving that makes these schemes financially attractive to businesses
            • Higher earners and those maximising salary sacrifice schemes would feel the biggest impact

            As of right now, none of these rumours are confirmed but the direction of travel is clear – the government is looking at salary sacrifice relief as a lever for revenue.

            How does this impact employee benefits across the UK? 

            It isn’t just pensions and bikes that could be affected. Salary sacrifice underpins several high value benefits across the UK. And any cap or adjustment to NI rules would have knock-on effects across employers and employees alike.

            For employers:

            • NI savings could shrink, making salary sacrifice benefits less beneficial to offer
            • Some employee benefits may need redesigning or re-modelling to remain viable
            • Payroll teams may face new administrative demands as changes come into force
            • Employers may reassess which benefits they choose to offer their employees

            For employees:

            • The financial incentive to join salary sacrifice schemes could reduce if NI savings are capped or limited, especially for lower income earners/ those on the basic tax band
            • Some benefits that feel affordable because of salary sacrifice – like commuting, childcare or EV schemes – may deliver smaller savings than before
            • Higher-value purchases or subscriptions may become less attractive if the tax advantages shrink
            • Employees may need clearer guidance from their employers to understand how their take-home pay is affected and whether their existing arrangements will continue unchanged

            What does this mean for the Cycle to Work scheme?

            One area generating significant discussion is the Cycle to Work scheme. 

            For years it has offered strong tax savings on bikes and accessories, including higher priced e-bikes. 

            But recent speculation suggests the government is looking closely at capping the scheme, which they believe is being abused. 

            One government official told the Financial Times, “Cycle to Work should be about helping ordinary commuters switch to greener travel, not giving tax breaks to high earners buying £4,000 e-bikes for weekend rides in the Surrey Hills.”

            What’s being discussed:

            • A potential cap on high-value bikes and equipment
            • A tightening of eligibility rules for non-commuting use
            • Reduced relief for expensive e-bikes and cargo bikes
            • A sharper focus on affordability and everyday commuting

            If confirmed, these changes could reshape the Cycle to Work market all together. 

            Traditional Cycle to Work providers that focus heavily on more expensive retail bike purchases may see a downwards shift, while innovative solutions like CycleSaver could offer the perfect solution to concerns raised by the government.

            Why CycleSaver could be the solution to salary sacrifice caps

            CycleSaver exists to make cycling to work accessible, affordable and more convenient than ever. Instead of purchasing a bike, employees subscribe to bike-share providers like Lime, Forest, Santander Cycles and more – saving up to 47% via salary sacrifice.

            Because our model is subscription-based rather than purchase-based, we sit in a very different place to the traditional Cycle to Work market.

            Why CycleSaver may be less affected:

            • Our products are low-cost compared with high-end bike purchases
            • The model doesn’t rely on large one-off transactions that caps would target
            • It directly supports day-to-day commuting, which aligns tightly with the scheme’s original policy goals
            • It requires no ownership and no long-term commitment, so it suits more employees

            If the government introduces caps or tighter limits on premium bike purchases, the value of bike-share salary sacrifice may become even more compelling.

            But more importantly, CycleSaver aligns with what policymakers say they want: affordable, accessible commuting options that support people getting to work without adding cost or complexity. 

            Our model is built for everyday riders, not luxury purchases – which puts CycleSaver on the right side of the conversation as the government looks to refocus the Cycle to Work scheme.

            What happens next?

            We’ll continue tracking the latest developments and will update our CycleSaver community as soon as the Budget detail is confirmed. 

            But, whatever Chancellor Reeves announces, our focus remains the same – helping employers offer cycling benefits that are simple, sustainable and accessible to as many employees as possible.

          4. Becoming a B Corp: How Sustainable Travel Boosts Your Score

            Becoming a B Corp: How Sustainable Travel Boosts Your Score

            In the corporate world, “doing good” is no longer just a marketing slogan that can be added to a list of company values.

            Instead, it’s a measurable, reportable framework that asks businesses to prove their impact – not just promise it.

            Becoming a certified B Corporation (B Corp) signals that your company meets the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. 

            To celebrate 10 years of the B Corp movement in the UK, we’re taking a look at how sustainable travel fits in, and how CycleSaver can help boost your B Corp status.

            What is a B Corp?

            A B Corporation (B Corp) refers to companies that balance purpose and profit. 

            Certified by the global non-profit, B Lab, B Corps commit to using business as a force for good – taking responsibility for their impact on people, communities, and the planet.

            Now marking 10 years of B Corp in the UK, the movement has grown from a handful of companies to thousands across every sector – all united by a shared belief that business can drive positive change.

            Unlike traditional sustainability claims, the B Corp certification is independently verified and globally recognised. It goes beyond meaningless environmental pledges to assess how a company treats its workers, manages its supply chain, supports local communities, and makes governance decisions.

            In short, being a B Corp means your business doesn’t just say it cares about sustainability and ethics, it can actually prove it.

            Why get B Corp certified?

            B Corp certification doesn’t just make your brand look good, it makes your business better. Here’s why more and more UK companies are looking to achieve their B Corp status:

            How to become B Corp certified

            Getting certified as a B Corp isn’t just about ticking boxes, it’s about showing that your business genuinely balances profit with purpose. Here’s what’s involved:

            1. Complete the B Impact Assessment: You’ll start your B Corp journey by filling out an online questionnaire called the B Impact Assessment (BIA). It looks at how your business performs across five key areas: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. To qualify, you’ll need to score at least 80 out of 200 points – to prove that your positive impact is measurable, not just marketing.
            2. Update your company’s legal documents: You’ll need to update your Articles of Association to include a legal commitment to consider people and the planet alongside profit. 
            3. Show your working: B Lab, the non-profit behind B Corp, will review your answers and ask for evidence to back up your claims – including things like employee benefits policies, environmental policies, or community initiatives. This step ensures transparency and credibility.
            4. Keep improving: Once certified, your work isn’t done. You’ll need to renew your certification every three years, showing how you’ve continued to improve and raise your impact score over time.

            There is also a certification fee applicable, which varies depending on your company’s size and annual turnover.

            How CycleSaver and sustainable travel can help you become a B Corp

            Sustainable commuting initiatives, like CycleSaver’s flexible salary sacrifice subscriptions directly contribute to your Environment and Workers scores in the B Impact Assessment.

            By introducing a salary-sacrifice benefit for bike sharing schemes, you’re:

            • Reducing carbon emissions 
            • Encouraging active travel
            • Demonstrating measurable impact
            • Promoting a benefit that’s easily accessible for all employees

            In short, CycleSaver helps turn your sustainability goals into tangible, reportable outcomes – contributing to your B Corp score while improving employee wellbeing.

            B Corp certification is about building a business that balances purpose and profit. Sustainable travel, including initiatives like CycleSaver, can make that balance easier than ever to achieve. 

            By encouraging your workforce to make greener commutes a part of everyday life, you’re not only improving your environmental impact but also building a healthier, happier workforce.

            Ready to get started on your B Corp journey and introduce more sustainable commuting options for your employees?

            Salary sacrifice – a benefit to look out for at EB Live 2025

            Salary sacrifice schemes are on the rise in the UK due to their tax-efficiency for both employers and employees. This increase in demand has been significantly driven by increased employer National Insurance (NI) contributions we saw in April 2025.

            Companies are balancing tighter budgets and employees are facing higher living costs than ever before, making salary sacrifice one of the most powerful tools in the HR toolbox.

            What is a salary sacrifice scheme?

            Salary sacrifice schemes allow employees to pay for certain benefits directly from their gross salary – before tax and National Insurance contributions are deducted. This reduces the employee’s taxable income, while employers also benefit from lower National Insurance contributions – making it a win-win for everyone.

            For employees, it means access to high-value benefits (from electric cars to bike schemes) at a lower net cost. For employers, it’s a way to reduce their wage bill without cutting staff perks – all while supporting wellbeing, sustainability, and talent retention.

            The Top 3 Salary Sacrifice Providers to look out for at Employee Benefits Live 2025

            Here are three of our standout providers to look out for at this year’s event, covering different areas of the salary sacrifice landscape.

            For employers, CycleSaver supports sustainability goals, boosts active travel among their workforce, and offers a modern twist on the traditional Cycle to Work scheme to meet the growing demand for more flexible options.

          6. Three purpose-driven employee benefits for the modern workplace

            Three purpose-driven employee benefits for the modern workplace

            Gone are the days of office pizza parties and team away days to keep employees satisfied. 

            Today’s workforce wants more sustainable employee benefits that align with their own core values and lifestyle choices – including their environmental and altruistic beliefs.

            In this blog post, we’re breaking down three purpose driven benefits to consider offering your employees, that all come at no additional cost to your company.

            Three purpose-driven employee benefits to offer your team

            1. Sustainable commuting benefits

            When it comes to sustainable commuting, the first employee benefit that probably comes to mind is the traditional cycle to work scheme.

            But, is that really what employees want? 

            Recent figures show that bike ownership is on the decline, with 2024 yielding the worst bicycle sales in the UK since the 1970s. Meanwhile, city bike sharing schemes like Lime, Forest, Santander Cycles and more are soaring in popularity – with availability in over 48 towns and cities across the UK. 

            That’s why CycleSaver was born – reinventing the cycle to work scheme to allow employees to enjoy savings of up to 47% on city bike share through the process of salary sacrifice.

            And for those employees who would prefer a vehicle over a bike, there are plenty of electric options to consider too. 

            Companies like the Electric Car Scheme or Octopus make switching to an electric car more affordable by allowing you to lease an EV for less through the tax benefits of salary sacrifice. 

            2. Volunteering time off

            Another way to offer your employees benefits that align with their values is through paid time off to volunteer.

            Paid volunteer days give your workforce the freedom to contribute to causes they’re passionate about without having to sacrifice their income or down time. 

            For employees, having access to employer-supported volunteering supports community engagement, strengthens employee wellbeing, and helps align personal purpose with professional life. 

            For employers, it contributes to their wider corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts, while boosting employee morale, team building, and brand reputation. 

            3. Payroll Giving Schemes

            When it comes to meaningful workplace perks, payroll giving is an employee benefit that should be on every company’s radar.

            Payroll giving allows employees to make a donation directly from their gross salary. Through schemes like GoodPAYE, employees are able to support the causes closest to their hearts while taking advantage of significant tax savings.

            Payroll giving schemes are especially beneficial to charities, as unlike other donation methods, payroll giving ensures charities receive the full donation amount without needing to reclaim tax through schemes like Gift Aid. 

            As employee expectations continue to evolve, so should the benefits that employers provide. Purpose-driven perks, like sustainable commuting options, volunteering leave, and payroll giving schemes, demonstrate that your organisation genuinely cares about people and the planet, not just profit. 

            Best of all, these benefits can be introduced at no additional cost to your business, while increasing employee engagement, retention, and reputation. It’s a win-win for your team, your company, and the planet.

          7. The Ultimate Guide to Bike Share in London

            The Ultimate Guide to Bike Share in London

            Bike share is quickly becoming the preferred method of transport for commuters in London, with shared bikes dotted around almost every corner of the city.

            In fact, leading UK bike share provider, Lime, recently achieved a massive new milestone – hitting 1 million global rides in a single day, with London topping the charts for the highest number of trips. 

            But what exactly is bike share? How does it work? And how is it different from owning your own bike?

            In this blog post, we’ll unpack everything you need to know before you give bike sharing a go. This is the ultimate guide to bike share in London.

            What is bike share and how does it work? 

            Bike share is a convenient and affordable way to cycle without owning a bike. Similar to other shared mobility concepts like ZipCar, these schemes allow you to locate and unlock a nearby bike, ride it to your destination, and park it – all with a few clicks on your phone.

            There are two types of bike sharing schemes in London:

            • Docked bike share: These bikes must be picked up and returned to specific docking stations. The most recognisable example is Santander Cycles – otherwise known as “Boris Bikes”.
            • Dockless bike share: These bikes can be picked up and parked in approved areas without the need for a docking station. Popular providers in London include Lime, Forest, and Voi.

            Most schemes operate via a mobile app. Here’s how it typically works:

            • Download the app from your chosen provider (e.g., Lime, Santander, Forest, Voi, etc).
            • Locate a nearby bike using the in-app map.
            • Unlock the bike by scanning a QR code or tapping your phone.
            • Ride to your destination
            • End your ride by locking the bike, either at a docking station or in a designated parking area.

            Whether you’re looking for a convenient commute or just need to take a short, spontaneous journey – bike share is designed to work for you. Use pay-as-you-go, buy a pass or, if your employer offers it, subscribe through a salary sacrifice scheme like CycleSaver and save up to 47% on your monthly ride minutes.

            The benefits of bike share

            Bike sharing schemes provide a cost effective solution to the pain points of bike ownership – so you don’t need to worry about costly maintenance and insurance policies, bike theft, or the need for additional storage space.

            They offer a wide range of benefits for both individual users and entire cities: 

            • Hassle-free and cost effective: No need to buy, insure or maintain your own bike
            • Improves your health: Swapping out your tube journey for cycling as your commute offers great physical and mental health benefits. Research from CoMoUK showed that over 80% of bike share users report a positive impact on their mental health
            • Eco-friendly: Reduces emissions and traffic congestion, helping to improve air and noise pollution
            • Flexible: Pick up a bike near home, ride to work, and drop it in a convenient parking zone of your choice near the office
            • Perfect for London living: No need for bike storage or to worry about theft as the bikes are shared

            Which is better – pedal bikes or e-bikes?

            Whether you’re new to bike share or a seasoned two-wheeled commuter, you’ve probably asked the same question at some point – “pedal bike or e-bike?” 

            Both are brilliant ways to get around London – fast, flexible, and far less sweaty than the Northern Line in July. 

            But depending on your route to work, fitness levels, and how much you’re carrying (including emotional baggage for that 9am meeting), one might suit you better than the other.

            Pedal bikes are the classic choice, and have been around for the longest. They’re ideal for short, flat journeys and anyone who enjoys a bit of light exercise on their commute into the office. Plus, they’re usually cheaper to hire, so if you’re cycling every day or keeping an eye on costs, they’re probably your go-to option.

            E-bikes, on the other hand, give you a nice, gentle boost (once you’re used to that initial kickstart – if you know, you know). You still pedal, but an electric motor helps take the edge off hills and tired legs. Perfect if you’re in a rush, carrying a heavy bag, or just want to arrive at the office looking fresh instead of flushed. They’re usually more expensive per ride, but the time (and sweat) you save makes it worth it for most.

            Plus, if you’re using a salary sacrifice subscription like CycleSaver, the cost difference between the two can narrow significantly – making it easier than ever before to upgrade to that battery-powered bliss.

            In short – both pedal and e-bikes are great options and it ultimately just depends on your personal preference. 

            Top bike share providers compared

            London’s bike sharing scene is thriving, with multiple providers offering a range of options to suit different needs, budgets and locations. 

            Here’s how the leading bike share services stack up:

            1) Lime

            Lime is one of the most widely recognised shared e-bike providers in London, known for its distinctive lime green bikes and easy to use app. Its fully dockless model makes it easy to pick up and drop off a bike wherever you are. Lime’s pricing is pay-as-you-go, but bundles are available to reduce costs for regular riders.

            Key points:

            • Price: £1 to unlock + £0.29/min (bundles also available from £3.99 for 30 mins)
            • Bike type: E-bikes only

            Cycle to work schemes for bike share

            As the UK continues to face a shift towards the use of shared bikes instead of bike ownership, the traditional cycle to work model (that’s been around since 1999) is in desperate need of innovation. 

            That’s where CycleSaver comes in. 

            CycleSaver makes these bike sharing schemes even more affordable to you by offering salary sacrifice subscriptions to the UK’s top bike share providers, including Lime, Forest, TfL’s Santander Cycles, and more.

            Through CycleSaver, you’ll save up to 47% on subscriptions offered by these bike share providers, through the tax benefits of salary sacrifice. That means a 25 minute Lime e-bike ride that would usually cost £2.65 could cost you as little as £1.40.

            And, with the cost of living crisis showing no signs of slowing down, there’s never been a better time to make your hard-earned pounds go further each month.

            Here’s how the salary sacrifice savings work: 

            Because this benefit is offered through salary sacrifice (a government-approved form of tax relief), the amount you save depends on your personal tax band.

            Higher-rate taxpayers usually save more than those on the basic rate, as the discount comes from the Income Tax and National Insurance you’d otherwise pay on that part of your salary.
