From gyms to museums, across Finland.

The sports and culture benefit is Finland’s most popular tax-exempt employee benefit, which an employer can give tax-free up to 540 euros per year per employee. 

The sports and culture benefit can be used at more than 16,000 venues in total, and it has one million users: employees of the state, municipalities, cities, listed companies and smaller businesses.

With the sports and culture benefit, you encourage employees to look after their physical fitness, and you offer their minds refreshment with a diverse range of culture. 

The taxable value cap of the benefit rose in October 2026, and the maximum value can be offered to staff retroactively already for the same year.

The easiest and most varied sports and cultural benefits.

Tax-free benefits.

The benefits are a small but cost-effective part of the salary. The employer pays no fringe benefits - and the employee gets to use the value of the benefit without any income tax deduction.
