A NEW WAY TO MOVE AROUND Voi provides a new level of mobility to urban dwellers who want to move smart and spend less without compromising the environment. So swap the tube, bus or car (and skip the hassle of parking!) for a shared electric scooter or e-bike and zip around the city in style, while leaving no carbon footprint. Rolling along the streets on an e-scooter or e-bike is the perfect way to explore a new city on a budget, or simply experience your own hometown from a different perspective. GET ROLLING IN NO TIME: 1. Get the free Voi app and create an account. 2. Find an e-scooter or e-bike nearby using the in-app map. 3. Unlock the e-scooter or e-bike by scanning the QR code on the handlebar. 4. Set off on the e-scooter or e-bike and get to your destination in no time. E-SCOOTER OR E-BIKE? The Voi electric scooter is an excellent choice for when you need to quickly get somewhere within a somewhat shorter distance, while the e-bike is ideal for longer routes. PRICING AND PASSES Skip the unlock fee every time with a Voi Pass – pick a subscription with or without riding minutes, grab a bundle of discounted minutes (unlimited unlocks always included!) or simply pay as you go. Prices vary by location, time and vehicle type. Check the app for current rates, deals and available options in your area. AROUND THE CORNER, ACROSS THE CONTINENT Voi lets you explore 100+ towns and cities across Europe on two wheels. Check if there’s an e-scooter or e-bike available near you at cities.voi.com/city. ROAD SAFETY STARTS WITH YOU The choices you make while riding an electric scooter or e-bike affect not only you, but all your fellow road users, as well. So let’s get it right! Be sure to know the rules of the road before setting off on an e-scooter or e-bike. Stick to the bike lanes or close to the side curb, and stay off pavements. Never ride under the influence, and always wear a helmet to keep your head safe. Oh, and no twin-riding – one person per e-scooter or e-bike at a time. FIRST TIME ON AN E-SCOOTER? If you haven’t used an electric scooter before – activate reduced-speed mode in the app. This caps the max speed of the scooter, allowing you to start off slow while learning to operate the vehicle. E-SCOOTER AND E-BIKE PARKING Proper parking is a matter of safety and accessibility. Keep yourself informed of your local rules and regulations in regards to e-scooter and e-bike parking – and follow them. Always park your Voi e-scooter or e-bike standing upright, using the kickstand and be sure not to obstruct the path of pedestrians, cyclists or other vehicles. LEARN AND EARN RideSafe Academy provides micro courses that teach you essential knowledge and helpful tips on local electric scooter and e-bike traffic rules and rider safety – all in a fun and engaging way. Boost your road confidence and get rewarded with a free Voi ride! The courses are freely available to all, and in several languages. Go to ridesafe.voi.com.

Die aktuelle Version ist im Pilotbetrieb. Wir arbeiten ständig an Verbesserungen und neuen Funktionen. In Aussicht stehen beispielsweise zusätzliche Zahlarten. VGN Flow ist die Einsteiger-APP für Alleinfahrende. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Du fragst dich vor Fahrtantritt ob Einzelfahrt oder Tagesticket? Mit Flow kannst Du nach dem Check-In / Be-Out Prinzip einfach einchecken und losfahren. Ganz ohne Tarifkenntnis. Die Flow APP lohnt sich für alle Alleinfahrenden, die nur einen Tag oder ein Wochenende im VGN-Gebiet unterwegs sind. Optimal also für Besucher, Tagesausflügler, Wochenendtouristen, Selten- und Gelegenheitsfahrer sowie Businessreisende. Also Öffi-Nutzende, die nur selten fahren, aber nicht auf den Komfort eines digitalen Tickets verzichten wollen. Basierend auf dem VGN-Tarifzonensystem errechnet die APP automatisch den Preis. Am Ende des Tages bzw. eines ganzen Wochenendes erhältst du dann eine Abrechnung über deine gefahrenen Strecken. So hast Du ohne Kenntnisse über den Tarif immer das optimale Ticket dabei. Wie funktioniert die smarte Fahrterkennung? -------------------------------------------------------------- Ganz einfach! In der App musst Du nur einmal am Tag die Funktion aktivieren und dich dann vor jeder Fahrt einchecken. Die App erkennt automatisch deine Fahrt, alle Umstiege und Fahrzeugwechsel. Beenden kannst du deine Fahrt entweder in dem du einfach selbst auscheckst oder du überlässt dies dem System, welches dich nach einer gewissen Zeit automatisch auscheckt. Damit das automatische Auschecken funktioniert, muss die APP wissen, ob man läuft oder fährt. Dazu benötigt Flow Zugriff auf deine Bewegungs- bzw. Fitnessdaten. Was zahle ich denn nun am Tag? --------------------------------------------- Du bezahlst nie mehr als die günstigste Kombination von HandyTickets für die gefahrene Strecke und auch nie mehr als ein TagesTicket Plus dich kosten würde. Probiere Flow im Pilotbetrieb doch einfach aus und installiere dir die APP! Schick uns gern Feedback an apps@vgn.de!
