Bikesharing with Call a Bike

You can enjoy flexible and comfortable two-wheeled mobility whenever you need it thanks to our fleet of over 13,000 bikes. They are available for hire in 80 towns and cities across Germany. Whether you're going to work, making plans for your leisure time or heading to a party, Call a Bike is always there for you.
Our prices
Whether for the daily commute, a city trip or spontaneous excursions on the weekend - with us you will find the right rate!
Our new rates will apply to all new registrations from 12 April 2022. The old tariffs remain valid for existing customers.
Return to service fees as of November 14, 2022
Our bikes were affected by vandalism at the start of the bike season 2022, and we could not offer you our full service throughout the year. Therefore, service fees for parking bikes outside of stations have been partially waived for you.
Our Call a Bikes are back on the road. If you park your bike outside of stations, we will charge a service fee again as of November 14, 2022.
**Special case Berlin: **a new street law is in effect in Berlin. Therefore, we are adapting the Call a Bike system in the city. In the future, please return bikes only at stations. There are no more flex zones in Berlin!

How do I register?
Download our Call a Bike app to your smartphone and follow our registration guide. The entire process only takes a moment. Authentication requires just a few items of information such as your phone number.
How do I pay the fee?
Call a Bike makes things easy: you can pay by credit card.
How do I report a damaged bike?
Just use the Call a Bike app to report any damage to your bike. Go to the menu at the bottom of the screen and tap "Damage". Enter the number of the damaged or defective bike – it only takes a second. Send us your location so that we can dispatch our service team quickly. Thanks for the help!
How do I return a bike?
Close the lock on the rear wheel of the bicycle by pushing the red bolt down. Our system then ends your journey automatically. We charge a flex fee of EUR 1 if you leave your bike somewhere other than a return area.
How do I find the nearest return area?
Finding your nearest return area is easier if you let the Call a Bike app track your location. The app's map will then be able to show you the nearest return area so you can pick up a bike or return one without having to pay a flex fee.
What can I do if I have found a Call a Bike?
Unfortunately, due to vandalism, our bikes are lost from time to time. If you discover a bike from us outside the core area or in no-parking zones, in ditches, bushes or in other unusual places, please send us an e-mail to found@callabike.de.
So we can collect them and hopefully repair them again.
Thank you very much for your help!
