CSR – the projects close to our heart.

Where our passion lies beyond bikes.

Taking responsibility.

As a young company, it is important to us to take responsibility from the very beginning.

Since entering the market in 2022, we have been looking closely at the impact we have as a company and how we can actively shape it. Our core business, company bike leasing, gets more people in Austria on their bikes – for the commute to work as well as in their free time. This makes the bicycle accessible as a means of transport to as many people as possible.

For us, CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) is not an add-on but a growing part of our corporate identity. In our very first years, we began to systematically record our environmental and social impacts. In 2023, we launched our first concrete CSR projects, such as our cooperation with SOS Children’s Villages, which we expanded in 2024. New partnerships followed, such as a project with Caritas Vorarlberg, and we have integrated CSR even more firmly into our everyday work – through initiatives at events and trade fairs, but also internally, for example with our Green Team or the deliberate choice of our electricity and gas suppliers when we moved into our new office.

In 2025, we also successfully obtained ISO 14001 (environmental management) and ISO 9001 (quality management) certification. An important milestone for our structured environmental management and our internal reporting, which we continue to develop.

We know that real change takes time – but we are on our way. And we invite everyone to join us.

Responsibility
Social commitment
Diversity
Inclusion

Great fun. With certainty.

The best atmosphere? You’ll find it in start-ups. The best network? In a corporate group. At Lease a Bike, we offer you the combination of both: in a fresh team, you have the opportunity to realise your ideas in a young growth industry every day. To work the way you want. Where it suits you best. And yet we are already more than just a highly agile company: as a joint subsidiary of two global corporations, we are on our way to redefining the market throughout Europe.

Be part of it: we look forward to meeting you!

SOS Kinderdorf Betreuer
testimonial

As part of our long-term partnership with SOS Children's Villages Vienna, we once again made a contribution to active mobility in 2024: 15 bicycles were given to caregivers to go on excursions with children on previously donated bikes. This initiative was made possible by strong partners such as Kalkhoff and Bentho E-Bikes. Bentho also organized a donation of high-quality bike locks, supported by ABUS Austria. The personal handover was a touching moment for our team.

Strong cooperation with SOS-Kinderdorf

Startbahn project
testimonial

With our donation of €1,500, we supported the Caritas Vorarlberg Startbahn project for the first time in 2024. The initiative helps young people with social or economic challenges to enter working life, including by working in the Carla bicycle workshop, where donated bicycles are repaired. Our support contributes to social integration and gets repaired bikes back on the road.

BTWD
testimonial

As part of our first "Bike to Work Days", donations were collected for every kilometer ridden by the participants. The campaign combined health promotion, team building and social commitment - a real highlight of our CSR year. The €1,500 raised was donated to a Caritas project to promote youth employment.

SOS Kinderdorfer Kinder

In fall 2023, together with our partners Mountainbiker and Cannondale, we donated 20 bicycles to the SOS Children's Village. The donation campaign was organized to give children who previously had no access to bicycles the opportunity to start the new school year on a bike.

Mission & Vision.

We want to inspire as many employees as possible to cycle. By offering or supporting initiatives around cycling and health, we bring movement into everyday working life – quite literally.

Cycling combines much of what matters to us: exercise, health and the joy of getting around. Individuals benefit from it just as much as companies and society.

We are working today to help shape the world of tomorrow, with inspired people and committed partners.
