Share in our success

Imagine being part of something where your efforts not only contribute to Flutter's success, but also reward you personally.

We're committed to building an inclusive workplace where you feel valued and recognised. That's why we're excited to offer Sharesave – a simple way to share in our global success.

Sharesave provides you with the opportunity to buy Flutter shares at a 25% discount. Save from as little as the local equivalent of $20 a month straight from your net salary, for three years, and at the end you can decide to use your savings to buy Flutter shares at the discounted price or take your savings. The choice is entirely yours.

This is your chance to benefit as our company grows. Sharesave is open to all permanent and fixed-term colleagues, providing you joined us before 26 November 2024.

Sharesave in action

Let's look at a quick example to bring Sharesave to life:

Sharesave opened with a discounted share price set at US$208.77. Rick liked the flexibility and simplicity of it, so he joined and saved $60 a month.

After three years, Rick had saved $2,160. By then, the Flutter share price had increased to US$270.

Rick decided to use his savings to buy shares at the discounted price. His $2,160 is exchanged into USD, at an exchange rate of 0.71, giving him US$1,533.60. With this, he can buy 7 Flutter shares (US$1,533.60 ÷ US$208.77)

If he decides to sell his shares at the new Flutter share price, they will be worth US$1,890 (7 shares x US$270 per share). Converting this back into CAD at an exchange rate of 1.39 would give him $2,627.10 (US$1,890 x 1.39). This would be a profit of $467.10 ($2,627.10 - $2,160), which is a gain of around 21%.

Rick wants to enjoy the benefits of being a shareholder, so decides to keep his shares, hoping his profit will grow further as Flutter grows.

This example doesn't take into account any movement in the exchange rate over the three year savings period. If, as a result of exchange rate changes, the local savings aren't enough to buy the maximum number of shares Rick could buy fewer shares or, in some cases top up his savings to buy the maximum number of shares.

Remember past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance. The performance of investments is not guaranteed and the value of any investment can go down as well as up. You can withdraw your savings, in full, either during or at the end of Sharesave.

Estimate your Sharesave value

We know that life can be unpredictable, so it's good to know Sharesave can work for your personal circumstances. Use this calculator to see what Sharesave might look like for you – model different scenarios to help you make the right decision.

This calculator is for illustrative purposes only, as there are future variables that cannot be predicted.
Please refer to the information buttons throughout each section for further information.

The minimum and maximum contribution amounts are set prior to the Sharesave join period using a fixed conversion rate.

The rest of this calculator is based on the current exchange rate: $1.00 = 1.3965$ (last updated: 2024-11-25).

This is your 'monthly savings amount' multiplied by 36 months (3 years)

This is your 'total savings'.

The amount shown is based on the current exchange rate: $1.00 = 1.3965$ (last updated: 2024-11-25), which may fluctuate in the future.

If the rate declines, you'll convert your savings to fewer USD and therefore buy fewer shares. However, if the exchange rate improves in your favour, you'll be able to buy all your allocated shares and any remaining cash will be returned to you.

The discounted price is set before each Sharesave period starts. This is our market share price at that time with a 25% discount applied.

You can only buy whole shares, not fractions of them, so the amount used to buy shares is often lower than the 'total amount available to buy shares'.

As it is only possible to buy whole shares, any left over amount that could not be used to buy a share will be returned to you.

This is the difference between the 'total amount available to buy shares' and the 'cost at discounted share price'.

This is the 'total amount available to buy shares' divided by the 'discounted share price' – rounded down to the nearest whole share.

We can't predict future share prices, so this model uses the current share price as a starting point.

You can adjust it higher or lower to see how any future changes in the share price may impact the potential value of your shares, should you choose to purchase them with your savings.

This is your 'total shares' multiplied by the 'current/estimated share price'.

This is the 'Estimated future value' minus the 'Cost at discounted share price'.

This amount may be subject to tax.

Q&A – Your questions answered

Sharesave is a savings plan that lets you put aside a fixed amount of money each month, directly from your net salary, for a set period of 3 years. At the end of the saving period, you can use your savings to buy Flutter shares at a discounted price, or you can just take your savings back if you prefer. It's a simple way to save money and potentially benefit if the company's share price goes up.

If you've heard of 'Save As You Earn (SAYE)' elsewhere, it's the same share plan as Sharesave, just an alternative name.

Put simply, a share plan is an opportunity for you to own part of the company you work for by buying shares.

There are different types of share plan with different features, and companies will choose the one that best suits the needs of their people and their business.

Sharesave is our chosen share plan offered across the Flutter family.

You can choose to save any amount between €12 and €500 a month*.

*Or the equivalent in local currency.

If you're already saving into a previous year's Sharesave, your combined monthly savings across all active plans can't be more than €500 in total. If you complete a Sharesave this year, as long as you've not missed any payments, that monthly savings amount won't count toward the limit anymore, freeing up space for you to use in the next Sharesave.

Just remember, while you can take payment breaks of up to 6 months, you can't reduce or increase the monthly amount once the invitation period has closed.

The number of shares you can buy at the end depends on three things:

  • How much you decide to save each month.
  • The discounted price offered to you.
  • The exchange rate at the time you wish to buy shares.

To see how many shares you could buy, try out our calculator.

Your savings are collected in your local currency and converted into GBP at the end of the savings period to buy shares. If the exchange rate at that time is less favorable than when you started, you may end up buying fewer shares than originally estimated. You may also have the option to top up your savings to buy the full number of shares originally allocated. On the other hand, if the exchange rate is more favorable, you can buy the full number of allocated shares.

You'll be buying shares in Flutter Entertainment plc. These shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) and traded in GBP unless you are in Canada.

If you are in Canada the shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and traded in USD

You can view our current share price and historical performance on our website.

Before each Sharesave period starts, we set a discounted price. This is the market price of a Flutter share at that time, with a 25% discount applied.

If, at the end of your Sharesave, the market price is higher than the discounted price, you can use your savings to buy shares at this discounted price. If the market price is lower, you can simply take back your savings instead.

Interest may be paid on savings, depending on your location and the policies of your savings provider.

Please note, any interest paid on savings will not be taken into account when calculating the number of shares you can buy.

If you're already in a previous Sharesave, you can still join this year's. Just keep a few things in mind:

  • Your total savings across all Sharesave accounts can't exceed the local equivalent of €500 a month.
  • If you have a Sharesave finishing this year and haven't missed any payments, the amount you saved in that one won't count towards the overall monthly limit.
  • If you want to increase your savings this year, you can cancel an existing Sharesave, but you'll lose the option to buy those shares.
  • You can't transfer savings from an existing Sharesave into a new one.

Please see the table in the Sharesave Brochure, under the 'Resources' section.

If you are saving using the Barclays account, your savings are securely held by the Depositor Compensation Scheme.

If you are saving with a local savings carrier arranged by your employer, we strongly recommend you review the terms of service before joining the Sharesave.

Sharesave is open to all colleagues, whether you're permanent or fixed-term. You just need to be employed by a specific cut-off date each year before Sharesave opens – this date will be shared in our communications. If you're not eligible this year, don't worry, Sharesave should be back next year!

Please note, Sharesave isn't available for contractors.

Sharesave is open for a limited time each year, usually just a couple of weeks. We send out communications to make sure everyone is aware and has the chance to join.

You can join via Shareworks, our share plan platform. It's run by Morgan Stanley at Work, our share plans administrator.

Saving for the first time?

You can activate your account by clicking on the following link: Activate my account

You will need to activate your account using the 'My company email address' option. If you don't have a Flutter email address you will need to use your personal email address registered on your local HR system.

Once you have entered your correct email address, you will receive an email that contains a link to activate your account. Please note: The email will require some specific information to hand, to complete the activation process. (Date of birth & Surname).

Click the link to access a verification page and enter the required identifying information.

Once your identity has been verified, create a login ID, username, and password. Please note: If you choose not to create a username, you will be provided with an account number as your username. Immediate access to your account is provided.

Saved before?

If you already have a Shareworks account, log in with your username and password as usual.

Apply online flutter.solium.com

You apply for Sharesave in your Task Area on your Dashboard – simply click on Apply for a Contract.

No, joining Sharesave will not affect your statutory sick pay, statutory maternity pay, or any other employee benefits you receive.

You can activate your account by clicking on the following link: Activate my account.

Please note that you'll need to provide your surname and date of birth.

In addition, after logging in for the first time you will need to provide your phone number, to allow the Shareworks Two Factor Authentication (2FA) process. This is required for you to add bank details and to process a request once you've finished saving.

If you have any issues with activating your account, or have any further questions, please contact Shareworks – see the 'Support' section of this page.

You'll receive a notification from Shareworks after the invitation period closes confirming that you can view the number of shares you will be able to buy at the end of the savings period on your account. This number is calculated by taking the total amount you will save and dividing the total by the fixed discounted price.

Any remainder that doesn't buy a whole share will be returned to you in cash. This way, all of your savings are either used toward purchasing shares or returned directly to you, ensuring nothing is lost.

FX / exchange rates can affect the value of your Sharesave. You're paid in a different currency than Flutter shares are traded in UK GBP (or USD if you're in Canada). If you decide to buy shares, the exchange rate at that time will determine how much the value converts to in GBP (or USD if you're in Canada) and therefore how many shares you can buy.

No. Once you've picked your monthly amount, you'll need to stick with it for the full three years. However, if needed, you can take a savings break of up to 6 months.

Yes, you can take a savings break of up to 6 months if needed. This can be a single break or a series of shorter ones. Just let payroll know when you want to pause and for how long.

Any break time will be added to the end of your three-year savings period, so each month you pause means saving for an extra month. This will also delay the date you can buy your shares. You can't make up for missed payments later by back-dating or overpaying.

If you take a break longer than 6 months, your Sharesave will end – you'll get your savings back.

Yes, you can leave Sharesave at any time and take back all your savings.

To leave early, simply make a request through the Shareworks platform.

Keep in mind that if you choose to leave early, you won't be able to buy shares at the discounted price.

You can easily view and manage your Sharesave on the Shareworks platform.

If you lose your user name or account number or forget your password, just go to the Shareworks login page and follow the on-screen prompts to have your details sent to your email.

For any other access issues, contact Morgan Stanley at Work via the 'Contact Us' link on the login page for assistance.

If you change your name or address, simply update your details in your local HR system, and the information will be automatically sent to Shareworks.

If you go on long-term leave (family leave, extended sickness, or a career break) and your pay is still more than your monthly savings amount, your savings will continue automatically.

If your pay isn't enough to cover your savings, you have two options: take a break or make the payments yourself. To keep saving, please read the standing orders FAQ under the 'Resources' section.

You can still buy shares at the discounted price if you:

  • Complete all your payments while on leave.
  • Return to work after your leave.
  • Leave Flutter provided it's been more than 3 years since you started Sharesave.

If you don't return to Flutter after your leave, you can cancel your Sharesave and get all your savings back, plus interest (if applicable).

We'll be sad to see you go but if you leave Flutter you'll always get back the money you have saved.

If the reason you're leaving us is because you're retiring at the specified age, are in ill health or have been made redundant, you can choose to continue saving for another six months if you want to. Then you can either get your savings back or buy a reduced number of shares at the discounted price.

If you resign or leave for any other reason not covered above, your option cannot be exercised and will lapse. However, you can get all your money back with any interest due.

Once you've left Flutter you'll receive a notification to view details on Shareworks of the choices available to you.

If you move to another company within the Flutter family, you can continue saving (subject to any local restrictions), but you'll need to set up a standing order to keep your savings going. Please see the guide under the 'Resources' section called 'Sharesave Relocation Transfer Continuation of Payment guide'.

If you move internationally, the local tax rules in that country will apply to any Sharesave profit, and this will be discussed with you at the time.

It's not easy to think about, but if you pass away while saving in Sharesave, your contributions will stop automatically. Your personal representative can then choose to:

  • Take back your savings in full.
  • Use the savings to buy discounted shares within 12 months of the date of death or by the end of Sharesave, whichever comes first.

FX / exchange rates can affect the value of your Sharesave. You're paid in a different currency than Flutter shares are traded in UK GBP (or USD if you're in Canada). If you decide to buy shares, the exchange rate at that time will determine how much the value converts to in GBP (or USD if you're in Canada) and therefore how many shares you can buy.

When you finish saving into Sharesave, you then have six months to decide what to do:

  • Buy shares: use your savings to buy Flutter shares at the discounted price set at the start of Sharesave; or
  • Take your savings back: withdraw all your savings as cash.

If you buy the shares, they're yours to:

  • Keep and become a Flutter shareholder.
  • Sell the shares immediately and take the proceeds.

If you decide to buy and immediately sell your shares, the cash amount you receive will depend on the Flutter share price at the time you request to buy the shares. Since the share price can go up or down during these six months, you'll need to decide when the best time is for you to take action. The more the share price has increased from the discounted price (set at a 25% discount) at the start of Sharesave, the bigger your cash gain will be. Also consider that the exchange rate at the time you buy the shares will determine how much the value converts to in GBP (or USD if you're in Canada) and therefore how many shares you can buy. The sale proceeds from any sale will be in GBP (or USD if you're in Canada), converted to your requested currency, at the exchange rate at the time of transfer to your bank account.

Remember to make your choice within six months of finishing your savings, which you can do on the Shareworks platform.

For more detail about tax payable in your country, please see the table in the Sharesave Brochure, under the 'Resources' section.

FX / exchange rates can affect the value of your Sharesave. You're paid in a different currency than Flutter shares are traded in UK GBP (or USD in you're in Canada). If you decide to buy shares, the exchange rate at that time will determine how much the value converts to in GBP (or USD if you're in Canada) and therefore how many shares you can buy.

Your decision depends on your personal circumstances, the share price and the exchange rate at the time. Here are some possible outcomes:

  • Share price increases: If the price goes up while you're saving, you benefit from the 25% discount plus any increase.
  • Share price decreases by less than 25%: You still get a discount, but it will be less than 25%.
  • Share price decreases by more than 25%: If the share price drops significantly, you'd be paying more than the shares are worth.

Remember, share prices can fluctuate, and any profit when selling shares may be subject to tax. The above outcomes do not take into account any fluctuations in exchange rates.

We try to avoid jargon, but if you come across these terms, here's what they mean:

Savings amount

The amount you choose to save each month, between €12 and €500 (in your local equivalent – which can be found in the 'Key benefits' section).

Savings period

The length of time you save for – 3 years.

Share option

This gives you the right to buy a set number of Flutter shares at a fixed discounted price once you've finished saving. It's called an 'option' because it's your choice: you can either buy the shares or take back your savings.

Option price

The fixed price each year is set with a 25% discount on the market value just before the joining window opens. This is the price at which you'll have the option to buy shares once your savings period is complete.

Invitation period

The time each year when eligible employees can join Sharesave – usually about 14 days. You need to apply during this window or wait until next year.

Grant date

The date after the joining window closes when applications to join Sharesave are officially accepted and confirmed.

Maturity date

The date when your 12 month savings period ends, and your chance to buy the shares at the discounted price begins – you have 2 months to decide from this date.

Exercise / Exercise window

'Exercise' means making a request to buy shares. The exercise window is the 6-month period in which you can decide to buy shares at the discounted price or take back your savings.

Enjoy the perks of being a shareholder

The moment you buy Flutter shares at the 25% discount, you'll own part of our company and be a shareholder – and with that comes some fantastic perks!

  • Hold onto your shares, and you'll receive a portion of our profits (called dividends) whenever they're paid out. These are currently not being paid, but may in the future.
  • Plus, you'll have a voice in important company matters by voting at our General Meetings on policies and key decisions.
