Jobbatical’s quick guides: Pay-as-you-go vs FlexyPockets

Everyone’s favorite topic when it comes to employee relocation: payments!

You already know that your relocation costs with Jobbatical are going to be about a quarter of what they would be with a legacy service provider—especially if you choose the right payment structure for your company.

Depending on your relocation needs, there are two payment structures available on Jobbatical: pay-as-you-go (PAYG) and FlexyPockets.

Here’s a glance at the two options and how you can choose the right one for you.

Pay-as-you-go

PAYG on Jobbatical works like PAYG pretty much anywhere else and is exactly what it sounds like: You make a purchase whenever you need relocation or immigration support. It’s as simple as that.

This option might be right for you if you’re confident you won’t need recurring relocation support. This may happen, for example, if you normally handle relocations in-house but need help with a particularly complicated case.

PAYG is very straightforward. It’s fine, and it’s what some people prefer. But we’re not excited about it.

In our experience, most companies that relocate once will keep relocating more people. Unexpected needs often arise, and with PAYG, this inevitably creates more busywork and more invoices. That’s why we introduced FlexyPockets (with big discounts).

FlexyPockets: Flexible relocation credit

You can think of the FlexyPocket as your Jobbatical bank balance, which you can top up at any time. In the simplest terms: You put money into your FlexyPocket, get significant discounts,  and choose which relocation processes and services you spend it on.

You’ll get an easy look at how and where your credit is being spent:

• Your starting balance and current balance;
• How much of your credit is going into which relocation case;
• An overview of any refunds and top-ups.

Your credit amount can be used for any Jobbatical service, including state fees or other relocation-related expenses—in any country. The terms of use for the credit can be adjusted to your needs and forecast, and payment can be done in flexible installments,  making it easy to control cashflow/spend.

FlexyPockets are a no-brainer, whether you relocate employees regularly or sporadically. Your CFO will love it, since it reduces unit cost. Plus, with one single invoice, there’s no need to get internal approvals for every individual case (we’re all about cutting through that red tape).

Your credit can also come in handy in unpredictable situations. No pressure to exactly predict your relocation volumes or know in advance if your employees are moving with family, for example—just use your credits freely as the situation calls for, with no changes to your payment terms.

Whichever payment option is right for you, you can rest assured that there will be no hidden fees when you’re relocating employees on Jobbatical.
