Do I have to report damages / in which cases?

It’s important to report damages, and here’s when:

Before starting your trip: No need to worry about minor scratches or dents—we’ll take care of those. However, if you notice anything that could make the car unsafe or unfit to drive, such as a flat tire, broken window, loose or missing trim, or a non-functioning light, please report it through the CityBee app.

During your trip: Report any damage to the vehicle that occurs, no matter how small. This includes accidents or collisions, regardless of who is at fault. By reporting promptly, you’ll ensure you’re covered by the BeeChill fee, and we’ll handle the rest. If you fail to report, you could be held responsible for damages. It’s always better to let us know right away!

Reserving and unlocking the vehicle

When reserving a car, you have two options:

· Choose a car, click on “Reserve,” and you will get a free 15-minute reservation, giving you access to the car for unlocking

· If you do not unlock the car within this 15-minute window, your reservation will automatically end unless you choose to pay for an extension.

If 15 minutes isn’t enough, you can extend your reservation for longer periods, but keep in mind:

· You can easily extend your reservation through the app after you’ve booked the car. Just click on Reservation and then select Extend.

· After the 15 minutes expire, the paid reservation time will begin. The cost per reserved minute is the same as the cost per minute when driving the car;

· You can extend the reservation for up to 24 hours;

· If you do not unlock the car by selecting “Unlock” in the app, the reservation will automatically end, and you will be charged for the time the reservation was active.
You can cancel a paid reservation at any time, and you will only be charged for the time used.

Once you’ve reached the car, click “Unlock” in the app. The car will unlock, and the keys will be inside the vehicle.

If you encounter any issues while trying to unlock the car using the app, please contact us by phone, and our 24-hour Beehive Assistance Center will be happy to help:

Extra fees

There are no registration or account creation fees. You only pay for the time you use the vehicle and the kilometers driven. Detailed pricing information is available on the “Pricing” page, while any additional fees and penalties are listed below in this Pricelist.

We strongly encourage you to use CityBee vehicles responsibly and return them in good condition. However, additional fees may apply if you fail to comply with the Terms and Conditions of the agreement or the rules for using the services.

Prices are available on the web pages:

LT – https://citybee.lt/en/pricing/;

LV – https://citybee.lv/en/pricing/;

EE – https://citybee.ee/en/pricing/.

The Terms discuss fines and conditions, principles and procedure of imposing them, whereas specific types of fines and their specific amounts are indicated in the Pricelist, which can be periodically updated. In any case, the User must get familiar with the Pricelist in the App, applicable to each reservation and currently valid before they confirm each reservation.

Please be aware that driving Cargo vehicles on motor highways requires payment. Drivers must either pay a user toll or present a document confirming toll payment, such as a vignette, in paper or electronic form. For more information about vignettes in Lithuania, and Estonia, please visit: Road taxes.

When driving within the borders of Latvia, vignettes are included in the price and drivers do not have to purchase them. If the trip is planned outside Latvia and the state border will be crossed, the driver must purchase a vignette.

Minimum trip price is the minimum amount payable for the services, which is deducted from the Payment account after unlocking the car or extending the reservation (if the minimum amount is exceeded, the remaining amount due is debited no later than at the end of the trip, and if the minimum amount is not reached – the difference is not returned). The minimum trip price (its size) for each car is indicated in the App.
