Radar function
The radar function in the CityBee app helps the user to be the first to know if any of the CityBee cars are nearby his location at a specific time chosen by the user.
The radar function icon can be found in the ‘Search’ section of the app, to the left of the ‘Filter’ icon. When you click on the icon and activate the radar, it will turn blue.
The minimum radar distance is 150 meters, the maximum – 1250 meters.
When activating the radar, you can choose between two options:
Notification without automatic reservation – when a CityBee car appears at the specified time and distance, the app will send a message to the user to inform them about it.
Automatic reservation – when a CityBee car appears at the specified time and distance, an automatic car reservation will be made by choosing the ‘Flexible’ pricing. The tariff can be changed after car reservation. Car reservation remains free until the end of the free reservation period (15 min).
Additional information:
The radar function will be activated at the specified time and will remain active until you reserve your car. If the car is not available within 2 hours, the radar will switch off. The radar function detects only cars that are incoming in the current location of the user and chosen distance when the radar function is activated.
Refueling at a non-Circle-K gas station
If you refuel at a station other than Circle K, we’ll refund the cost of the fuel. To request a refund, make sure to save the receipt and follow the process described here.
Please note that we cannot process receipts older than 3 months.
Payment card registry
At least one payment card must be linked to a CityBee account. You can link more than one payment card and choose from which card you will be billed for services before each trip. It is important that the card type is VISA or MasterCard and that the secure internet shopping function is activated.
How do I activate the secure internet shopping function?

4.

Temporary lock with a key
If you want to use the car for longer than travelling from point A to point B, lock the car with a key at intermediate stops and take the keys with you. Do not mark the trip as complete in the app. If needed, you can continue your trip using the same car at any time. Only mark the trip as complete in the app when you no longer wish to use the car. Please note that if you lock the car with the key, if it has not been used for some time, but you have not completed the reservation via the app, the price of the travel time will continue to be calculated.
'CityBee' parking zones
CityBee zones shown on the app map indicate where you can start, pause, or end your trip. Always follow local traffic and parking rules, and avoid restricted areas such as ‘No Parking’, ‘Reserved’, or private spaces.
Please do not leave ‘CityBee’ cars in underground or multi-story car parks, private driveways, lawns, or areas with time-regulated parking.
Important: parking zones are different for passenger, van, and electric van vehicles.
Zone Types and How They Work
Transparent (light) areas are the main ‘CityBee’ zones. Here, you can freely end your trip or park temporarily free of charges as long as you follow parking rules and don’t use disabled, reserved, or private spots. If you park in a private paid lot such as Citypark, Unipark, Europark (unless stated otherwise), you are responsible for the parking fee.
Yellow zones may include an extra fee or a discount when starting or ending a trip, depending on the zone. Tap the yellow zone or (€) icon in the app to view details.
Grey (dark) zones are areas where trips cannot be ended. You can drive through them or park temporarily, but if you do, you’ll need to pay any parking fees yourself.
If you want to finish your trip, you must move to a transparent or yellow zone.
Private or Paid Parking Lots
Parking in private paid lots is allowed unless stated otherwise, but you will need to cover the parking cost yourself.
Country-Specific Parking Rules
Lithuania: You can park the car in public city parking free of charge if it’s a ‘CityBee’ permitted zone displayed in the app. Be aware of private parking exceptions and traffic rules described above. You can find parking zones in Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, Palanga, Kretinga, Gargždai.
Latvia: CityBee vehicles may be parked free of charge in public city parking spaces in Riga, Liepāja, Ventspils, Ādaži, and Jūrmala (an entry permit is not required; however, an additional fee will apply if the trip is ended in the yellow parking zone).
In Daugavpils, CityBee vehicles may be parked free of charge in two designated public parking zones – the Vienības Square parking zone and the Lāčplēša Street parking zone. As these parking zones may change, we recommend confirming the latest information with our Customer Support team before parking the vehicle.
If the car is parked in other paid parking areas (including private parking lots such as Citypark and Europark), the driver is responsible for paying the parking fee, except for certain exceptions. Parking zones operated by Rīgas Satiksme, except for the R zone, are free of charge for CityBee users.
Estonia: Parking is free in public city spaces (except Tallinn Old Town) and in selected Europark private car parks. If you park in a private paid lot, you must pay for parking yourself. In Tallinn Airport, CityBee vehicles can be parked in the A4 car-sharing parking lot. More information about the exact location can be found here.
Travelling Between Cities and Countries
❗ You’re welcome to take a CityBee car across the Baltics (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia) and finish your trip in any CityBee zone you see in the app. Just keep in mind that a €69 cross-border fee applies when a trip starts in Latvia or Estonia and ends in Lithuania.
More information about the reason for this additional fee can be found here.
If you end the trip in Latvia or Estonia, no additional fees will be charged.
Van drivers should note that in some cases, road vignettes or passes may need to be purchased separately, depending on local regulations.
Before You End Your Trip
1. Open the ‘CityBee’ app, click ‘Reservation’ and check your current zone.
2. Ensure you are in a transparent or yellow zone.
3. Review any applicable fee or discount in the app.
4. Confirm you are parked correctly according to traffic and parking rules.
5. Avoid grey zones, restricted areas, or private driveways.
End of the trip
Park the car in ‘CityBee’ zone when you’re finished. All zones are shown on the app map. For more details on parking zones, see our guide here.
Before you hop out, do a quick check:
– Grabbed all your stuff
– Car documents and accessories still in the car
– Key back where you found it (or somewhere the next person will easily spot it)
– Windows and sunroof closed
Then just open your active trip in the app, hit ‘End trip’, and confirm. Make sure the doors actually lock. You’ll get a confirmation.
Left something behind?
No worries. You can unlock the car once for free to grab your things. Find out more about retrieving lost items here.
Traveling abroad with 'CityBee'
‘CityBee’ cars can be used to travel within the European Union (or where ‘CityBee’ car insurance is valid). However, you need to get our prior permission first.
The permission request must be sent to the general email addresses:
You can contact the LT team via info@citybee.lt;
You can contact the LV team via info@citybee.lv;
You can contact the EE team via info@citybee.ee.
Before deciding whether to allow to transport ‘CityBee’ car outside of LT, LV or EE, we will assess our technical and organizational capabilities and your history of using ‘CityBee’ services.
You’re welcome to take a CityBee car across the Baltics (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia) and finish your trip in any permitted CityBee zone shown in the app. Just keep in mind that a €69 cross-border fee applies when a trip starts in Latvia or Estonia and ends in Lithuania.
How can I find out when my CityBee subscription plan expires?
You will receive an email notification after each trip made with your CityBee subscription plan, informing you of the plan’s expiration date. You can also check the expiration date in the CityBee app under the ‘Subscription’ section.
