AMS is a leasing company founded in 1982 and is subject to supervision by BaFin and Bundesbank according to § 32 KWG. In order for us to enter into our leasing customer’s vehicle order or purchase agreement, we ask that you sign the order entry form. We receive the signed order entry form directly from the customer who uploads it to our web portal. Please do not send us the form yourself. This would only delay processing.
All we need from you is the transfer protocol and the sales invoice. Please send us the documents as a PDF file by e-mail and note the different e-mail addresses: fpm@ams-gruppe.de for the takeover report, rechnung@ams-gruppe.de for the sales invoice.

Leasable accessories
In principle, leasable accessories also include accessories offered by the manufacturer at the factory (“optional equipment”) as well as accessories offered by a dealer that are permanently attached to the bicycle. Not eligible for leasing are, for example: Bicycle trailer, child seat, bicycle helmet, bicycle shoes, protective clothing, glasses, water bottle, floor pump and tools. Accessories that are not eligible for leasing cannot be billed through AMS in any other way.
Leaseable accessories include saddle, bell, lights, pedals, luggage rack, rear view mirror, mudguards, rain cover (for cargo bikes), bike computer, air pump incl. bracket and other mounts (for example, for child seat, cell phone, bike basket, bike bag, beverage bottle, etc.), but also replacement battery and bike lock. Also eligible for leasing are the costs of upgrading the pedelec display and the costs of assembly, packaging and shipping. The accessories must be included in the sales invoice for the bicycle. Subsequent settlement is excluded.

Settlement of workshop costs
Dealing with violent or insured damage of workshop costs
The order for the repair of violent or insured damage is always placed by the lessee or driver. If you have not received a declaration of assumption of costs from AMS, the driver places the order at his own risk. In this case, he must pay the repair invoice issued to AMS himself and upload it to the AMS web portal for reimbursement. The costs will only be reimbursed if the repair costs are covered by the insurance.
