15 Products and services you can pay for with Edenred Flexível
10 de August, 2023
Has your company given you the Edenred Flexível card? This extra salary benefit aims to increase purchasing power in areas that generally represent a large slice of the family budget.
This increase in liquidity results from the fact that this benefit is totally exempt from paying Social Security. For example, if your company grants you €1,000 through Edenred Flexível: considering an average TSU rate of 11%, for example, you are receiving €110 more net than you would if the same amount were granted to you in cash (in this case, you would only receive €890 net).
