Started in the middle of the year and unsure when or how to activate your mobility budget? Don’t worry! In this article, we’ll walk you through everything step by step — from choosing the right start date to entering your monthly rent or loan repayment.
📅 Important rule: Adjust your start date
Your mobility budget is an annual budget calculated on a pro-rata basis.
Starting in September? Then you’ll receive the budget for the remaining months of the calendar year (September to December). Make sure to update your start date accordingly.
💰 Entering your amount: follow these rules
You can never enter more than:
Your available mobility budget ❌
Your actual rent or repayment amount ❌
💡 Tip!
For rent or loan repayments:
If you choose October 1 as your start date and want to use your entire available mobility budget, you’ll have 3 months to spend it.
Example: €2,000 available budget ÷ 3 months = €667 per month.
⚠️ The amount you enter cannot exceed your actual monthly rent or repayment.
