Rent and pay for cycle boxes: via app or with a chipcard

BikeParkBox

The cycle boxes of BikeParkBox can be installed at railway stations or a Bike&Ride-Station as well as on company grounds, on the campus of a university or by a long-distance cycle path.

The use of the boxes can take place at all affiliated locations either via the cloud-based BikeParkBox portal, or as an on-site system exclusively for your own company.

Cyclists can use the system simply with their smartphone, from registration, reservations and payment to the opening of the cycle box. The integration of existing chipcards and payment systems is also possible, for example with the works ID of the company concerned or the student ID of a university.

Reserve and pay

With the innovative user concept you will be the operator of your own cycle boxes at your location. The BikeParkBox system takes over reservations, management and accounting for the fees that are due.

Users can book their personal box via smartphone app and pay conveniently via the app or with the credit balance on their chipcard. So you as an operator generate income as a sideline from the use of the boxes or the charging stations for e-bikes.

In this way you can offer both occasional users and regulars a comfortable, secure and well-planned system for the storage of valuable bicycles and personal items.

The BikeParkBox is available in many different versions: for individual cycles and as a complete solution for large storage areas providing secure protection from theft, vandalism and weather. The modular arrangement permits the system of cycle boxes to be subsequently extended at any time.

For everything that matters to cyclists

Each BikeParkBox can be locked separately and is theft-proof and not observable. Users therefore have a private and protected space for their bicycle, child seat or baby buggy, or their longboard or shopping and other personal items.

In addition to the temporary garage for your bicycle it also acquires a special “storage boot” – for just an hour, a day, a whole week or even longer.

Incidentally, comfort and safety have been tested and certified by the ADFC.

History

Information concerning all bookings and every time the door is opened will be shown in the app in the form of a history, together with the end of the rental period and – if the period is exceeded – the additional payment due or any possible payment credit if the rental is terminated early. The user will also find detailed reports and all billing in his or her personal web account.

Open and pay with the chipcard, statistics for the operator

Open the box with the chipcard and make payments

In locations with closed circles of users, the boxes can also be opened with a chipcard. Existing cards or transponders using current technologies can usually be used. The box is opened at a chipcard reader in the vicinity of the box.

Payment can be made when booking via direct debit or via a deduction from the wages account or from the credit balance on the refectory card. In the case of spontaneous use, it is also possible to pay directly when the box is opened, and the combination of opening via chipcard and payment via app is a further option.

Assessments

In the web portal operators will find various reports on the utilisation of the facility and the associated income. They can manage their boxes and determine possible rental periods and appropriate rental prices. Of course the data is collected in a manner that conforms with DSGVO regulations.

In many versions, for every type of use and ready for the future

Variable and modular

Depending on the location and the demand, you can combine as many cycle boxes as you like to form an integral system. The boxes are available in many forms and colours and can even be individually designed upon request.

Optional for e-bikes

Power from a 230-volt power socket can be used inside the cycle box via an integrated energy column, so that e-bike batteries can be charged directly inside the box.
