Riso ermöglicht steuerfreien Lohn. Mit Riso zahlen Firmen Lohn(teile) steuerfrei an ihre Mitarbeiter aus. Der Effekt an einem Beispiel zusammengefasst: Mitarbeiter bekommen 100 Euro mehr (brutto für) netto und Arbeitgeber sparen gleichzeitig ca. 100 Euro an Lohnnebenkosten. Zusätzlich zu diesen überzeugenden Zahlen bringt Riso weitere Vorteile: • Auszahlung direkt aufs Konto (statt Gutschein oder limitierte Karte) • Anwendbar in ganz Deutschland (statt beschränkt auf teilnehmende Akzeptanzpartner) • Digital per App (statt gedruckt auf Papier oder mit Karte) • Verwaltungsarm: Riso als Dienstleister übernimmt alle benötigten Zwischenschritte der rechtskonformen Durchführung. Dabei kombiniert Riso die unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten, welche das deutsche Steuergesetz bietet. Denn eigentlich sind steuerfreie Lohnbestandteile (fast) seit Gründung der Bundesrepublik im Gesetz verankert. Die Komplexität der Anforderungen an die Durchführung halten jedoch insbesondere kleine Unternehmen davon ab, die damit verbundenen Vorteile zu nutzen. Hier unterstützt Riso: Wie helfen vom ersten Schritt bis zur Auszahlung und zeigen, wie Lohn heute steuerfrei wird. In der Riso-App reichen Mitarbeiter Ihre Belege ein und sie sehen, welche Gutschriften sie schon erhalten haben und wie hoch Ihre Auszahlung sein wird. Einfach, kompakt, übersichtlich. Alles weitere übernimmt Riso.
