Only eligible adults aged 18 or older may operate a Bimba. The account holder may start rides for up to two additional eligible adults through the available Group Ride flow, but every e-bike or e-scooter remains single-rider. Children and passengers are not allowed on the same vehicle.
Stay on the active main-road corridor shown in the app. Its northern boundary is generally near Somos in rainy season and NAMI in dry season; the southern boundary is the last Bimba point in Mal País near the pizza location shown in Bimba materials. Side roads toward the beach or mountains are restricted. The vehicle can slow and later stop after leaving the active corridor.
Follow applicable Costa Rican traffic rules, signs and signals. Do not ride while impaired, race, perform stunts, use a phone or headphones while moving, or tamper with the vehicle. Keep both hands ready and adjust speed below the vehicle’s maximum of 25 km/h whenever traffic, road surface, weather or visibility requires it.
Finish only in an approved parking area shown for the trip. A physical dock is not required at every approved location. Park upright without blocking a road, path, entrance or driveway, then wait for the app’s end confirmation.
This page summarizes the main operational rules; it is not a complete statement of Costa Rican law. The Rider Agreement accepted in the Bimba app remains the binding source and may be updated.
