What they have in common
Whichever method you choose, the extra contributions will come straight out of your pay. And because they all count as pension contributions, you get tax relief if you are a tax payer. But be aware you will have to pay the full cost yourself, as unlike your normal benefits, these extra benefits aren’t subsidised by your employer.
