Lime scooters are now available in Prague via the Uber application
From this morning, the Uber company in Prague is offering a new service – a ride with Lime electric scooters. The goal of cooperation between the two companies is to provide certain inhabitants of Prague with other options for accessible, flexible and ecological transport. Lime scooters are available via the Uber application in seven European cities – Stockholm, Malmö, Poznań, Warsaw, Wrocław, Vienna and Prague. They will find a new option for transporting Uber users in applications among other modes of transport offered in specific cities – in the case of the Czech capital, they therefore provide UberX, Uber Select or Uber Black services.
The integration of Lime scooters into the Uber application is another step for Uber on its way to becoming a comprehensive urban mobility platform. The availability of different modes of transport through a single application simplifies users’ decisions on how best to get from point A to point B.
The offer of Lime scooters within the Uber platform is based on the usual rates: unlocking costs CZK 25 and the user then pays 4 crowns per minute of travel. Before the first ride, they are familiar with the principles of safe operation, including calls to wear a helmet while riding, with a maximum speed of 25 km / h.
