Out of bay charge
A £10 convenience fee will be charged for bikes left outside of a Beryl Bay
Out of zone fee
Our operating zone covers a large area. A £25 convenience fee will be charged for bikes locked outside the Beryl zone.
If the bike is not brought back into the operating zone within 24 hours, an additional £80 fee will be charged to cover the cost of recovering the bike.
Unlocked bike fee
At the end of your ride, please make sure you lock your bike correctly whether in or out of a bay. When you lock the bike, it will chime to let you know. Please check in the app to make sure your bike has correctly registered as locked.
A flat fee of £10 will be charged to cover the cost of us sending our operations team out to lock the bike on your behalf.
