🕒 Ride Smart

  • Unlock between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM to get 120 free minutes, counted from the moment you unlock – Enjoy your ride stress free!
  • Free minutes end at 8:00 AM, so unlock by 6:00 AM to get the full 120 mins.
  • Once your free minutes end, a per-minute fee of AED 0.50/min applies for pay-as-you-go riders, and standard extra-time rates apply for existing pass holders until the bike is returned. 
  • After 8:00 AM, standard pricing and pass policies apply: regular pay-as-you-go rates, or your standard pass terms if you have an active pass.
  • Unlock up to 4 bikes on a single account, and every bike gets the free minutes.
