What is salary sacrificing?
Salary sacrificing a car via a novated lease is an arrangement with your employer that enables you to use your pre-tax income to lease a new or used car.
When payments are made before tax, it can help to reduce your taxable income, which increases your take home pay and helps you pay less overall tax. Depending on your salary, the financial benefits from salary packaging can be significant.
While we specalise in salary sacrificing cars Australia-wide, salary sacrificing can also be used to reduce your taxable income on a number of other expenses like insurance, loan repayments and other personal expenses – it just comes down to your employer.
