FAQ's

What is a FAVR reimbursement program?

FAVR stands for Fixed and Variable Rate. It reimburses employees using a fixed payment for ownership costs and a variable mileage payment for operating costs, helping align reimbursement with actual vehicle expenses.

Who is a FAVR program best for?

FAVR is often a strong fit for companies with employees who drive for business, especially when mileage levels, territories, fuel costs, insurance costs, or vehicle expenses vary across the workforce.

How is FAVR different from the IRS mileage rate?

The IRS mileage rate uses one cent per mile. FAVR separates fixed vehicle costs from variable operating costs, which can create a more accurate reimbursement structure for many employers.

Can FAVR reimbursements be tax-free?

FAVR reimbursements are generally tax-free when the program complies with IRS requirements and employees provide proper mileage documentation under an accountable plan.
