The bike-sharing system is designed to promote the constant use and turnover of bikes for short journeys. The 30 minutes session provides an incentive for members to keep their trips short and let other members take the bike.
Keeping the bike more than 30 minutes (up to 60 minutes) is only allowed 3 times per calendar month. Should you exceed this limit your account will be blocked for 30 days.
In that case your account will be permanently blocked.
No, you can’t. The bike-sharing scheme is designed to further encourage public transport use and intermodality: this is the basic concept behind our research project!

No, the bike has no lock. Please consider that the bicycle must never be left unattended. The bike sharing service differs from a simple rental service as it assumes that the bicycle can be shared by several users throughout the day. The bicycle must be used for the time necessary to reach their destination and immediately made available to other subscribers.
No, you can’t. Only one bike can be taken at a time per session. Another bicycle cannot be taken until the first is returned.
No, you are not allowed to carry passengers (adults, childs, animals) on the bike.
The research project Bike Sharing Napoli is open from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, from Monday to Sunday. Always check this site for updates.
You can check the map with real-time information about the availability of bikes and slots on this website, on the app and on the kiosk.
If you have a bike you wish to return, but there are no available slots at a station, you must locate a station with available slots and return the bike there. The kiosk located at each station will provide real-time information about which nearby stations have available slots.
When returning a bike you must ensure that it is properly locked to the slot. Always check that:
1) The green hook is closed and is no longer possible to unlock the bike;
2) the display shows the message “Thank you” or “Grazie”.
If you leave the bicycle without locking it properly to the slot, the timer continues to run and the bike is considered abandoned.
Read carefully the General Conditions to know the penalties (according to art. 8 Penali).
Information about your use of Bike Sharing Napoli is posted to your personal Bike Sharing Napoli web page. Please log in to view all the information, such as the date and duration of each trip, the station from which the bike was checked out and the station to which the bike was returned, the distance pedaled.
