In bike leasing, two types of contracts are crucial: the framework leasing agreement and the service agreement. This article explains the differences, contents, and why both contracts are necessary.
Framework Leasing Agreement
- Is concluded between the employer (lessee) and the leasing company (lessor).
- Regulates the framework conditions for all individual leasing contracts, including:
- Payment terms
- Contract durations
- Insurances
- Data protection
- Requirement: a positive credit check and verification of the employer.
- The framework leasing agreement is the basis for cooperation and applies to all company bikes.
Service Agreement
- Is concluded between the employer and the bike leasing service.
- Contains the leasing parameters that the employer sets for their employees:
- Number of bikes per employee
- Price limits (minimum and maximum value)
- Mandatory insurances
- Dealer selection
- Important: The service agreement releases the employer from the right of offer of the leasing company.
Why both contracts?
- The framework leasing agreement regulates the legal relationship between employer and lessor.
- The service agreement defines the operational guidelines for employee use.
- Together, they form the basis for all individual leasing contracts.
