Terms of Services
CityBee terms of services are described in the following documents:
en
Children carriage
Children must be carried in kids’ chairs. CityBee cars have kids’ chairs (you can see whether there is a chair in a selected car by clicking on the car icon on the map or using a filter and selecting the criteria “Cars with kids’ chairs”). Chairs are for older children, i.e. this is a raised seat without a backrest.
Road traffic rules warn that children under the age of 12 and not higher than 150 cm are allowed to sit in the front seat only in special seats adapted to their weight and height.
For safety reasons, CityBee cars only provide a group 2/3 booster cushion for children from 22-36 kg, aged 6 to 12 years, following the law.
Extra fees
There are no registration or account creation fees. You only pay for the time you use the vehicle and the kilometers driven. Detailed pricing information is available on the “Pricing” page, while any additional fees and penalties are listed below in this Pricelist.
We strongly encourage you to use CityBee vehicles responsibly and return them in good condition. However, additional fees may apply if you fail to comply with the Terms and Conditions of the agreement or the rules for using the services.
Prices are available on the web pages:
LT – https://citybee.lt/en/pricing/;
LV – https://citybee.lv/en/pricing/;
EE – https://citybee.ee/en/pricing/.
The Terms discuss fines and conditions, principles and procedure of imposing them, whereas specific types of fines and their specific amounts are indicated in the Pricelist, which can be periodically updated. In any case, the User must get familiar with the Pricelist in the App, applicable to each reservation and currently valid before they confirm each reservation.
Please be aware that driving Cargo vehicles on motor highways requires payment. Drivers must either pay a user toll or present a document confirming toll payment, such as a vignette, in paper or electronic form. For more information about vignettes in Lithuania, and Estonia, please visit: Road taxes.
When driving within the borders of Latvia, vignettes are included in the price and drivers do not have to purchase them. If the trip is planned outside Latvia and the state border will be crossed, the driver must purchase a vignette.
Minimum trip price is the minimum amount payable for the services, which is deducted from the Payment account after unlocking the car or extending the reservation (if the minimum amount is exceeded, the remaining amount due is debited no later than at the end of the trip, and if the minimum amount is not reached – the difference is not returned). The minimum trip price (its size) for each car is indicated in the App.

Does the fee cover tow truck costs?
BeeChill fee covers towing costs if the vehicle needs to be towed due to an accident—just make sure to inform us right away, and we’ll handle the rest.
However, the BeeChill fee does not cover towing costs in the following situations:
-
Running out of charge: If you discharge the EV battery, towing costs won’t be covered, as it’s your responsibility to ensure the vehicle has enough charge, just like with fuel in traditional cars.
-
Parking violations: If the vehicle is towed because of a traffic violation, such as parking in a restricted area, the fee will not cover the costs and you’ll be responsible for the towing charges.
In these cases, it’s important to follow traffic rules and keep an eye on the vehicle’s battery or fuel level to avoid extra costs. For more details, please refer to our Terms of Service or Pricelist.

What happens when I get a flat tire?

-
Pull over safely: First and foremost, make sure you stop the car in a safe location.

Failure to Comply with Speed Limit Notification
At CityBee, we prioritize safety, both for our drivers and everyone on the road. If you happen to exceed the speed limit, we’ll call you or send you a notification to remind you to slow down.
However, if after receiving this notification you continue to exceed the speed limit, a fine specified in our Pricelist will be applied. This fine serves as a reminder to follow the rules of the road and keep your driving safe.
By respecting speed limits, you’re not only avoiding fines but also contributing to a safer experience for everyone. Let’s keep it safe and smooth on the roads!
Leaving the car in private parking lots
Parking in private paid lots is allowed, but you will need to cover the parking cost yourself.
For more details on parking zones, see our guide here.
Additionally, regardless of whether the area is shown in the app as a free parking zone (transparent) or a paid parking zone (yellow), customers must always comply with local traffic regulations, road signs, supplementary signs, and any other parking restrictions in force.
Before ending your reservation, always make sure that parking is permitted in the selected location.
Night reservation
Night reservation lets you reserve a car overnight, so it will be waiting for you in the morning. It’s a convenient option if you need a car early the next day or simply want to make sure your preferred car is available.
The package is available for purchase every evening between 9:00 PM and 6:00 AM.
You can find the Night package under “Special offers” in the “Packages” section of the app during the available purchasing window (9:00 PM–6:00 AM).
Night package has a fixed end time of 7:00 AM, regardless of when you purchase the package.
This means the reservation duration depends on your purchase time:
-
Purchase at 9:00 PM – your car will be reserved for 10 hours.
-
Purchase at midnight – your car will be reserved for 7 hours.
-
Purchase at 5:00 AM – your car will be reserved for 2 hours.
Please note: The package does not provide a fixed 9-hour reservation. You will receive the remaining reservation time until 7:00 AM.
The package has two fixed prices, depending on the evening when your reservation starts:
-
Weekdays (Sunday–Thursday): €4.99
-
Weekends (Friday–Saturday): €9.99
The price remains the same throughout the purchasing window, regardless of when you buy the package.❗️
The applicable price is based on the evening when your night reservation starts, not the morning when it ends. The price applicable to your reservation will be shown in the app when purchasing the package.
The app displays “From” because there are two different prices for the Night Reservation package: €4.99 on weekdays and €9.99 on weekends.
You can generally purchase a Night package while you have an active trip or package. However, purchases may be restricted depending on the validity of your current package and the Night package’s availability window.
You can also set a reminder in the app so you don’t miss the opportunity to purchase the package. Simply open the Night package details while it is not yet available for purchase and tap “Set reminder”. You’ll receive a push notification as soon as the package becomes available.
Once the Night package ends at 7:00 AM, regular flexible rates automatically apply if you have not purchased another prepaid package. You can also purchase another prepaid package while your Night Reservation is active. In this case, the new package will automatically start at 7:00 AM, as soon as the Night package ends, and its duration will be counted from that time.
Any unused package balance is non-refundable and non-transferable.
