How can I pay for a Metro Bike Share pass?

The best experience to sign-up, create an account and pay for your Metro Bike Share pass is to download the Metro Bike Share App – especially for international users. Metro Bike Share stations also include a touchscreen kiosk with a built-in credit card reader where you can purchase a pass using a credit or debit card. Please note that kiosk card readers or docks do not currently support contactless payments. If you’re using the Metro Bike App, you can purchase passes directly from your device using a credit/debit card or available mobile wallet options such as Apple Pay or Google Pay. Please note, you are not able to pay for Metro Bike Share with stored value on a TAP card or through the TAP App.

 

Is the app available in multiple languages? 

Yes. In addition to English, the app is available in Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Armenian, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Russian. The app automatically matches your device’s preferred system language. Language changes must be made through your phone’s settings: 

  • iOS: Go to Settings → General → Language & Region, then select your preferred language. 
  • Android: Settings → System → Language. Move your preferred language to the top of the list so it becomes the default.  

Once your device’s default language is updated, the app will automatically switch to that  language the next time you open it.

What if I need to return a Metro Bike and a station is full?

How much does it cost to use an Electric Metro Bike?

Casual riders can unlock Electric Metro Bike for $1. The standard riding fare of $1.75 each 30 minutes applies thereafter. 30-Day, 365-Day, Business and Reduce Fare pass holders can continue to unlock Electric Metro Bikes for no additional fee!

How much does Metro Bike Share cost?

1-Ride passes are just $1.75 for each 30 minutes you spend riding. Electric Metro Bikes are an additional $1 to unlock for casual riders.

 

Frequent riders can save money with our 30-Day and 365-Day Passes. With these passes, the first 30 minutes of all trips are included for free and the Electric Metro Bike unlocking fee is waived. See more information about passes and pricing.

I’ve purchased a pass. How soon can I ride?

Just download the Metro Bike Share app to access mobile bike checkout. You can also walk up to a Metro Bike Share station and use your phone number at the kiosk to unlock a bike.

Can I take out more than one bike at a time?

Yes! However, checking out multiple bikes only works when a 1-Ride pass is purchased. Follow the steps below, when you want to check out multiple bikes (up to 4) in the app or at the kiosk:

App

  • Purchase a 1-Ride Pass
  • Follow steps on app to check out the first bike completely
  • Go back to Account > Renew or Change Pass > Change Pass > 1-Ride
  • Purchase another 1-Ride and repeat steps until you have checked out as many bikes as you need (up to 4)

Kiosk

  • At the kiosk select 1-Ride
  • Follow the steps and at bike selection, select up to 4 desired dock numbers
    Pro tip: At a busy station, it’s good to check to make sure other people have not claimed a bike first and are checking out via the app before you proceed with checking out multiple bikes

Please note, anytime bikes are checked out on the kiosk there is a $51 authorization hold on the card. This is removed after bikes are returned and can take up to 2-5 days to clear depending on the bank.

How do usage fees work and when does my trip start and end?

A “trip” begins when you remove a bike from any station dock point, and ends when you return it to any station.

Regular riding fare is $1.75 for each 30 minutes you are riding. The first 30 minutes of all trips are included for FREE if you are a 30-Day or 365-Day Passholder.

Electric Metro Bikes can be unlocked for an additional $1. This unlocking fee is waived for 30-Day and 365-Day Passholders.
