Our systems are compatible, registering in one of them enables bike rentals in all cities in Poland and worldwide where Nextbike is the Operator. It is worth to remember that each of the systems is characterized by its own price list and Terms of Service.
In order to facilitate and simplify the process of bike rental, identification may be conducted by means of each device which has the function of contact-free identifier. This is the majority of plastic proximity cards-i.e. City card, Electronic Student Card or the majority of payment cards.
In order to register the card you must approach the terminal, enter the telephone number and PIN code and then place the card in the indicated place.
Upon subsequent rental you may identify yourself at the terminal by means of the card, that is place the card in order to log in.
If you wish to log in only by means of the card, without indicating PIN number-mark the option “ During each rental and return, for safety reasons, ask me about my PIN number” on your account on the portal www.szamotuly.bike.
Of course, through the application you can rent a bike locked in the electric lock as well as one secured by means of the clamp. If you wish to rent a bike by means of the application you may select two options: entering its number in the application or scanning the QR code.
The bike secured with electric lock will be automatically released if it is secured with a clamp the code to the clamp will be displayed in your mobile application.
Another bike may be rented straight away. If however you would like to rent the same bike-wait 3 minutes.
Normally, during identification the request to enter a credit card number should not appear. Such a situation may occur if, for example, you enter an incorrect telephone number and the terminal will identify you as a new user who does not have the funds.
The terminal asks for indication of credit card number also in a situation when there is less than 10PLN on the account. It is best if you try once more to enter your data correctly in order to log in or else, contact with Customer Office.
Nextbike relocation teams transport the bikes 24 hours a day in order to fill out the shortages on stations on an ongoing basis, however, we are not able to guarantee, especially during rash hours, that bikes will always be available at each station.
Of course, however common sense is key in each such situation. Do not leave the bike in remote places or “risky” ones and secure it with a belt or with a digital lock, connecting it to a fixed, solid element and you may be sure nothing will happen to it. Be sure that no other person will be able to use your bike-secured for a moment, during a ride, with a digital lock-or rent it via mobile application or QR code, since the bike will be visible in the system as rented.
The login sites, registration site and “My account” are coded via SSL, which is visible through the link upon entering each of these sites. Websites which launch Nextbike API application are additionally encoded but they function in the iframe mode thus it is not visible within the address tab. Moreover, encoding of the entire service is switched on and set as default. We thus guarantee that the use of our website is 100% safe at each stage.
