BIKETOWNpdx for iPhone

Portland Cycling, Simplified: BIKETOWNpdx

BIKETOWNpdx is the official mobile client for Portland’s shared-bike network. The system uses rugged electric bicycles designed for everyday use, and riders can secure them at any BIKETOWN docking station or standard bike rack around the city. The app connects you to a large nearby inventory of bikes, lets you unlock them instantly, and handles payment right from your phone.

Primary Features

• Quick in-app unlocking and contactless payment to get rolling with minimal fuss.
• Real-time listings of upcoming public transit departures — covering train services, local buses, and streetcars — to help you combine trips efficiently.
• Wide coverage across the city so you can find and return bikes at many convenient locations.

Fare Options and Memberships

• Pay-per-ride options for occasional users who prefer flexibility without committing long-term.
• Annual memberships for frequent riders who want ongoing access and potential cost savings.

Benefits of Using BIKETOWNpdx

BIKETOWNpdx makes short trips greener and often faster than driving. Riding an e-bike adds low-impact exercise to your day while avoiding parking hassles, and the network’s robust bikes are built to handle urban conditions.
