Register your credit card and phone number with Nextbike. We use phone numbers to identify you and credit card for payment and bike security. We will also need an email, address and PIN.

The best phone number to register is a New Zealand mobile or international mobile. If you don’t have one of these your home phone number. The phone number must be unique to you, because our system links your credit card to this number.
We charge your credit card $4 to proof it's not stolen. This $4 is credited to your first paid rental.

You can then find the nearest Nextbike from one of the many rental stations, or visit the map on the locate page to find the closest bike.

You can rent upto 4 bikes per registered rider.

To ride call 09 909 9090, from your registered phone and then enter the unique bike number on the rear mudguard. You’ll receive the current bike lock code verbally and then by text on your cell phone. Ride wherever you need to go, 1 hour or 1 week, you decide.

If you call from a phone number that is different from the one you registered with us, like a public phone, you will be asked to enter your registered phone number and PIN.
