Before you close your laptop for summer: eco voucher swaps & your go-to guide in Payflip 🌞

June is one of the busier months in the HR calendar; holiday pay is landing, eco vouchers and sector premiums are top of mind, and there's plenty to stay on top of. 🌞

This edition: a spotlight on swapping eco vouchers for meal vouchers, a couple of quick heads-ups, and the answers to your most-asked questions.

One more thing before we dive in: this is the last newsletter until September. July and August tend to be quieter months with less news to share, so we're taking a summer break. We'll be back in your inbox in September, recharged and ready. ☀️

Grab a coffee, let's get you up to speed! 🚀

In the spotlight 🔦

Swap your eco vouchers for meal vouchers 🔁

Eco vouchers get assigned once a year and in many cases expire unused, that budget goes straight back to the voucher provider. There's a smarter approach: redirect it towards a higher meal voucher value.

In PC 200, you're allowed to replace eco vouchers with an equivalent benefit of equal value; the procedure is lighter than you'd expect. No trade union delegation? A simple written communication to employees is enough. Trade union delegation? You close a CLA.

⚠️ Key deadline: the swap needs to be arranged before 31/10 to take effect for eco vouchers issued the following year. Act before October 2026 and you catch the June 2027 issuance under the new arrangement.

The maths works out too: increasing meal vouchers from €8 to €9.15 at 220 working days delivers roughly €250 extra per year, exactly offsetting the typical eco voucher budget.

Reminder: book your spot for the mobility budget summer deal 🌞

Last month we shared our summer deal to get a head start with the Mobility Budget before January 2027.
A number of companies have already taken us up on it, and our capacity to onboard new clients before year-end is getting limited. If you're still considering the Mobility Budget, now is the right moment to act. Waiting until Q4 means competing with a much busier calendar.

Reach out to your Customer Success Manager, or head straight to our landing page to book a demo and discover the summer offer.

Quick heads-up 💡

June is often the month when companies make that decision, and if that's you, let us know as soon as possible via the chat. A switch affects how we process your payroll data, and the earlier we know, the smoother the transition. 🔄

What's trending in our inbox 📬

The extra holidays my employees purchased via Payflip, do those get passed on to our social secretariat automatically, or do I need to do something?

When an employee's holiday purchase is approved, you'll receive a to-do in Payflip reminding you to add the extra days to their holiday balance. That step is yours to take, the purchased days don't flow automatically to your planning tool.
Once you've added them to the employee's balance, they'll be able to select and plan those holidays.

Got questions? Feel free to chat with our team, we’re happy to help!
Have a great day and see you in the next edition! 👋
