Mobile Phone Salary Packaging

Reduce your mobile phone costs by salary packaging with Remunerator. If your mobile phone is used at least 50% for work purposes and your employer's policy permits, you may be eligible to salary package the purchase price.

Benefits of Salary Packaging Your Mobile Phone

  • Tax Savings: Reduce your taxable income by using pre-tax salary to pay for your mobile phone.

  • GST Savings: If GST is applicable, your employer may claim an Input Tax Credit (ITC) and pass the savings back to you.

  • FBT Exemption: The mobile phone benefit will not result in a Reportable Fringe Benefit Amount on your annual Payment Summary.

  • In the Health and Charities sector this means this benefit may be packaged in addition to the threshold (capped) amount for your sector, tax free.
