Linking

Link your VRS chip card in the Wallet of your nextbike by TIER app. Search for “VRS chipcard holders (KVB-Rad)” and enter your chip card number and your age. Now verify your chip card once by using it as a rental medium at least for the first rental. You will then be able to cycle at a reduced rate for this and subsequent rentals.
