- low-interest loans other than low-interest loans provided by life insurance companies
- free, subsidised or discounted goods and services, including subsidised transport for employers in the public transport business

Gifts, prizes and other goods are fringe benefits. If you pay for your employees' entertainment or private telecommunications use, these benefits may also be liable for fringe benefit tax
