Welcome to TravelPass, the free online travel portal for employers to get tax free public transport tickets for Ireland’s Commercial Bus Operators.
The Tax Saver Scheme
Using the Tax Saver Schemes your staff obtain a yearly Bus or Rail ticket or a brand new bike and safety equipment and can save up to 51% of the retail price. Our travel portal automates the application process thereby removing the administration of the Tax Saver Schemes, saving you time and money.
Your TravelPass Account
The portal also provides information on hire cars, taxis, carpool, traffic updates, weather, tolls, cheap fuels, and many exclusive discounts on the various modes of travel.
By offering the travel portal you are providing convenience and significant tax savings for doing what your staff already do—commuting to and from work.
For the company it means no more administration with different Bus and Rail operators, dealing with bike shops or wasting valuable company time doing unnecessary paperwork. TravelPass’s online system means less paperwork for you as all employee tax saver applications are made over the web.
For company employees we offer over 300 travel operators, a simple online application process, a consistent service and a broad range of resources to help them stay satisfied, productive and focused on their objectives.
Employers can use a salary sacrifice arrangement to allow your employees to pay for the tax saver applications monthly. This means employees save up to 51% of the retail price of bus / rail tickets or bikes but your company also makes a saving of 10.75%.
This service is provided free of charge to companies.
Our services vary from county to county, but your employees will receive exclusive commuting offers and a high level of service that helps them get to work for the lowest cost.
Smarter Travel programs are proven to be one of the most efficient ways to improve traffic, employee morale and air quality. With little investment, programs at the workplace that promote carpooling, public transport, walking, and bicycling can also have a positive impact on the bottom line.
