How On-Demand Bike Parking Works:
-
Get a BikeLink™ card
The BikeLink™ Card is sold online at www.bikelink.org, by local facility owners, nearby businesses, or vending machines.
-
Insert card
The screen guides you through a very quick process to start your rental. It's like using a parking meter.
-
Park your bike
Once there's time on the meter, the door opens. Put your bike inside, close the door, and walk away. Your bike remains secure even if the meter expires.
-
End rental
Insert your card, get your bike, and get your refund! Unlike a parking meter, any time you don't use is refunded. If your meter expires you are simply charged for the extra time at a higher rate.
How Automated Bike Rental Works:
-
Get a BikeLink™ card
To facilitate insurance or security deposit requirements, the bike fleet
owner may require your card be tagged with an extra electronic access code.
You can get a code for your card over the phone, on the web, or by
purchasing your card directly from the bike fleet owner.
-
Insert card
The screen guides you through a very quick process to select a bike and start your rental.
-
Remove rental bike
When you start your rental, if you.re using an eLocker the door opens. If you.re using an eRack, your selected bike is released.
-
End rental
You can return your bike to a different location from where you rented it.
If you.re using an eLocker, insert your card, view and accept your receipt,
replace bike and attach docking device. If you.re using an eRack, just dock
your bike at any slot and then insert your card to view your receipt and
close out the transaction.
