Daily price

The displayed maximum price per day (max. price/day) refers to a ride with one bike up to 24 hours from the start time of the booking. If you want to interrupt the ride, pause the ride but do not end it. New rides are recalculated and do not count towards the daily price of the last ride. As soon as you exceed 24 hours on a ride with one bike, you pay another full daily price. Example: if you ride for 24 hours and 1 minute, we will charge you the price for 2 days (48 hours).

Maximum rental period: Bike sharing is intended to ensure fast and flexible mobility over the last mile. The bikes should therefore only be rented for a short time and then be available again for other users. In the bike sharing systems of Deutsche Bahn Connect GmbH, the maximum rental period is therefore limited to 72 hours (three days) per ride. After that, the rental can be terminated by us. For longer rentals, we recommend a classic bike rental.

Ride pause

Please note that the time you take a break will be counted as part of your ride time. You will pay a maximum of the daily rate.

Bookings of new RegioRad bikes with front carrier during breaks are automatically terminated after 24 hours. If the paused RegioRad is not parked at a station, this will result in a service fee. To avoid this, end the pause before 24 hours have elapsed.

Night tariff

You can use RegioRadStuttgart overnight at a particularly low price: For rides from 6 p.m. until 9 a.m. the next morning - with return at a RegioRadStuttgart station - the following price cap applies:

• polygoCard tariff: maximum 1.50 €/rental

• Basic and Light tariff: maximum 2 €/rental

Tariffs with discounts and special agreements

You can use a tariff with a discount or special conditions if you can provide proof of eligibility. This applies, for example, to student and business tariffs or the polygoCard tariff. If you no longer qualify, we can switch you to the Light tariff with no basic fee.

Fares when using other products

With the RegioRadStuttgart app, you can also rent bikes from the bike sharing systems Call a Bike, StadtRAD Hamburg and StadtRAD Lüneburg. Here, the prices of the local tariff without a base fee apply, unless otherwise agreed:

• Call a Bike: Starter tariff

• StadtRAD Hamburg: Light tariff

• StadtRAD Lüneburg: Light tariff

Reservations

You can reserve bikes, pedelecs and cargo pedelecs 45 minutes in advance via the app. This reservation does not count as ride time and there is no charge for this time. If the reservation is not used and expires without being canceled in advance, a reservation fee of 5 € will be charged.

Service fees

For classic RegioRad bikes with a back carrier, you can only end your ride at designated RegioRad stations. Cargo pedelecs must be returned to their home station.

You should also always park a new RegioRad bike with a front carrier at a RegioRad station. Bikes parked away from stations mean a lot of extra work for our team. For this reason, we charge a service fee in these cases, depending on where the bike is parked:

Location & Fee

No fee

• At a station

EUR 10 service fee

• Obstructing a public space (our service team must move the bike)

• In a no-parking zone

• returning a bike outside a station (new RegioRad bikes with front carrier)

EUR 25 service fee

• Outside the municipality

• In a location that is not barrier-free and publicly accessible (courtyard, staircase, basement, etc.)

EUR 50 service fee

• Failure to lock the bike properly

• Failure to return an electric cargo bike to its home station

Payment failure

We charge a flat rate of EUR 5 if the payment process fails, i.e. if you have selected the SEPA direct debit process as a payment method in your account but a direct debit transaction cannot be completed as intended.
