Gather the necessary information - Mobility budget

Easily prepare all the information to launch your mobility budget in RewardFlex

Written by Maylis Sledsens

📌 Before you begin

This checklist guides you through everything you need to gather and decide before your onboarding call. Go through it in order - some steps require involving third parties (social secretariat), so plan ahead!

It is divided into two phases: first gather the information required from your internal sources and your social secretariat, then define your choices internally regarding the structure of your mobility budget. Both phases must be completed before your onboarding session.

📢 This entire checklist must be completed before your onboarding call.


PHASE 1 — Gather the information

This information is to be obtained from your internal sources and your social secretariat. Plan ahead, this may take a few days.


🗂️ Step 1 — Your employees' data

Prepare the import file with the following information for each employee:

  • Surname and first name

  • Email address and phone number

  • NISS

  • Gross annual salary (defined by the law of 12/04/1965)

  • Gross monthly salary

  • Role: white-collar worker or blue-collar worker

  • For blue-collar workers: hourly wage, weekly working hours, average working days per week

Then add your workers to your RewardFlex platform. This step is mandatory.

⚙️ Step 2 — Information from your social secretariat

Contact your social secretariat to obtain the following items. You will need them to configure the payroll export in RewardFlex.

Payroll identifiers:

  • Your company ID at your social secretariat

  • The individual payroll identifier of each employee

Salary codes:

Request the salary codes corresponding to the benefits you wish to offer. Within the framework of the mobility budget, you will notably need the codes for:

  • The Pillar 2 reimbursements (mobility expenses)

  • The year-end (Pillar 3) reimbursement

💡 This information is used to configure the payroll export, which generates a monthly structured file of approved expenses to be sent to your social secretariat for reimbursement via payslips. See our article Payroll Export to learn more.


PHASE 2 — Define your choices

These decisions are to be taken internally, ideally with your HR and/or social secretariat.


👥 Step 3 — Define your employee categories and the TCOs

  • Identify the employee categories within your organisation, based on objective and non-discriminatory criteria (e.g. job category, seniority, package level…).

  • Determine for each category a TCO (Total Cost of Ownership): the total annual cost of the company car to which the category is entitled.

These categories and their TCOs will serve as a basis for calculating the budgets and activating the right services for each employee.

💡 If you have difficulty calculating the TCO, consult our complete info sheet: Calculate the TCO for the mobility budget in RewardFlex.


⚖️ Step 4 — Choose your policy

Two options are possible:

  • Monizze policy: we strongly recommend this option. The signing of the policy and the addenda is done directly in RewardFlex, which simplifies and streamlines the entire process for you and your employees.

  • Your own policy: if you already have a Mobility budget policy, it is possible to use the one already in place.

The selection of the policy is done when creating your plan in RewardFlex. You can download the Monizze policy directly from the Budgets section of the platform


🚦 Step 5 — Choose the mobility services

Choose the options to activate for your employees. The legal rule: minimum Pillar 1 or 2 + Pillar 3 mandatory.

Pillar 1

Pillar 2

Pillar 3

Electric vehicle – Leasing

Public Transport Subscription

Year-end reimbursement

Electric vehicle – Purchase Purchase

Purchase of a Public Transport Ticket

Car Sharing

Car Rental

Taxi

Bike - leasing or purchase

Other (bicycle allowance, pedestrian allowance)

Mortgage loan / Rent reimbursement (max. distance 10 km)

Mortgage loan / Rent reimbursement (50 % teleworking per month)


⚙️ Step 6 — Define the practical arrangements

Financing of public transport subscriptions:

  • Classic: the employee advances the costs, then gets reimbursed via the mobility budget.

  • NMBS third-party payer system: Monizze orders the subscription directly. If you choose this option, remember to read and sign the mandate before your onboarding call.

Launch month:

Define internally the month from which you wish to launch the mobility budget for your employees. This information will have to be communicated during your onboarding call.


✅ Final check

Before scheduling the onboarding call, verify that:

  • The employee import file is completed and uploaded

  • The company ID and the employee identifiers are obtained from the social secretariat

  • The salary codes are obtained from the social secretariat

  • The employee categories and the TCOs are defined

  • The chosen policy is identified

  • The mobility services to activate are selected

  • The launch month is confirmed

  • The NMBS third-party payer mandate is signed (if applicable)


🚀 Everything is ready!

Once all this information is gathered, you are ready to schedule your onboarding call. It is during this call that the configuration will be finalised together in the platform.
