Information (contract 2024-2027)
We have concluded a contract with nextbike for a bike rental subscription for all of us. This runs until the end of March 2027.
The current subscription costs €2.50 per student per semester. From the winter semester 2025/2026 €2.70. This fee is automatically paid by all students with the semester fee.
How to use the subscription?
- First you have to register (you can find the explanation in the attachment). You must use your .....@student.kit.edu-Adresse for authentication.
- You will then receive an email in which you have to click on a link. If you do not do this, the subscription will not work.
- The booking is made via app (nextbike, KVV.mobil? etc.), via a nextbike terminal or via the hotline.
You do not have to enter any payment details as long as you do not have to pay anything.
What are the conditions?
- You can use the bike free of charge for 30 minutes per ride. There must be at least 15 minutes between two journeys.
- If you exceed the 30 minutes, you pay €0.50 per 30 minutes. You pay a maximum of €5.00 per day.
- You can rent 2 bikes at the same time at this rate. If you rent 3 or more bikes, you pay the regular nextbike rate (currently 1 € per 30min and a maximum of 9 € per day).
