The advantages of a mobility budget

🤔 THE CHALLENGE: GETTING THE MOST OUT OF MY MOBILITY BUDGET

Ella is an employee at Alan and has been using Mbrella since April 2021. The idea of a company car did not exactly thrill her. So when the mobility budget was introduced at Alan, she didn’t need convincing!

"I live in Brussels and I deliberately chose not to take a company car. Let's face it, in Brussels that is often more of a curse than a blessing. So I opted for the mobility budget. Unfortunately, the regulation is so complex and I didn't really know what was possible and allowed.

💡THE SOLUTION: MBRELLA TO THE RESCUE! 🚀

How does Mbrella help you?

"I use the platform to finance my rent but also my train rides and shared mobility such as Bird, Lime and Dott in Brussels. I recently bought a flat so I'm happy I'll also be able to enter my interest in the Mbrella platform."
From 1 January 2022, thanks to an update of the legislation, it will also be possible to finance your capital repayments with your legal mobility budget.

"Through Mbrella's in-app chat, I can ask all my questions about which costs I can finance with the legal mobility budget. Fortunately, the tool itself is very easy to use. Especially for my rent, I only have to enter it in the platform once, my HR manager approves the expenses, and the amount is then automatically deducted from my mobility budget every month and paid net with my salary! Thanks to Mbrella, I now spend no more than 5 minutes a month entering my mobility expenses and I get the most out of my budget."
