Each pay-as-you-go ride costs US$1 to unlock plus US$0.50 per billed minute. Separate sessions each carry their own unlock charge. The price shown in the app before you start is authoritative.
The approved passes are US$15 for 100 minutes within 24 hours, US$35 for 300 minutes within 72 hours, US$70 for 700 minutes within 7 days and US$120 for 3,000 minutes within one month. A pass is not a continuous rental of one vehicle and does not reserve or guarantee availability.
All Group Ride charges go to the account holder's payment method. A personal pass applies only if the app explicitly confirms it for that Group Ride. An available vehicle can be held before a ride for US$0.50 per minute, subject to the current terms shown in the app.
The first card transaction may include a temporary US$20 authorization to confirm available funds. It is not the ride price or a deposit refund. Bimba releases it the same day, although the bank controls when it disappears from the account.
Charges continue until the ride is correctly ended. Park in an approved area and wait for the app to confirm completion. If it keeps running, contact support immediately with the QR number and your location.
