Cooltra is Europe’s leading service for renting electric scooters and bikes by minutes from a mobile app. With Cooltra you can enjoy all the advantages of riding your own electric vehicle – but without worrying about anything else.

It’s the best way to move around the city – outdoors, away from the crowds, and without traffic jams. It consists of using a scooter or bicycle for a short period of time, with everything included (insurance, maintenance, battery charging).

We currently operate in Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Seville, Rome, Milan, Lisbon, Paris and Turin. Our scooter rental service is available in all these cities, and in Barcelona and Turin you can also rent our bikes. If you are going to the Netherlands or Belgium you can rent felyx e-mopeds from the Cooltra app. felyx is our brand operating in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Once you have registered, using Cooltra is as easy as opening the app, choosing a scooter (or bike if you are in Barcelona), reserving it, and riding with it. You don’t have to worry about battery charging, insurance or maintenance. Always park according to city regulations and finish your ride from your phone.

Anyone over 18 can register on Cooltra, and if you want to ride our scooters, you must have a valid driving license.

To sign up you just have to download the app from Google Play or the App Store. We will ask you for photos of your ID card or similar and/or driving licence depending on the city you are in and the type of vehicle you choose.

Once your registration is complete, our team will check if everything is in order and activate your account within a maximum period of 48 hours.

If you want to unregister from our service, please contact our Customer Service by sending an email to hello@cooltra.com.

Cooltra has thousands of Govecs and Askoll electric scooters. They are equivalent to 50cc vehicles and can reach a maximum speed of 48km/h.

You can use Cooltra 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. In case of using felyx vehicles you should check the availability of the service in each city. felyx is our sister brand operating in the Netherlands and Belgium.

You just have to log in to the app, select the scooter or bike you want to use among those shown on the map, and click on ‘Reserve’. From that moment you have 15 minutes to get to it and start your ride.

In the case of scooters, when you reach the place where your scooter is parked, you can easily locate it by pressing the “Beep-Beep” button – that will make the horn sound and the indicators will blink.

If the vehicle has any damage, send us a notice by pressing the ‘?’ button in the map and choose the ‘Report incidence’ option.

How do I start the scooter?

Once you get to the scooter and you’re ready to start:

1. ‘Slide to start’ on the app to unlock it.
2. Put the scooter down from its central stand.
3. Press the ‘Start’ button on the scooter to turn it on (depending on the model, it is either the red button on the scooter´s handlebar, or a button at the height of the right knee).

How do I start the bike?

Once you get on the bike:

1. ‘Slide to start’ on the app to unlock it.
2. In a few seconds the yellow lever that locks the rear wheel will go up and the chain will be unlocked.
3. Untie the chain and wrap it around the saddle as shown in the app animation. Make sure that it’s well fixed and that it does not hinder your pedaling.
4. You can now adjust the saddle to the desired height, get on it, and start riding.

By the way… The bike has an electric pedal assistance system; as soon as you start pedaling, it will be activated and the bike will go faster. This pedal assistance and changing the gears (in the right handlebar) will be your greatest allies in conquering your city – no hill will be too steep!

It is not necessary. Each e-moped comes with two helmets of two different sizes. To access them, start the ride on the app. Then you have two options:

1. Click the app button to open the top case/seat.
2. Press the bottom button on the back of the top case (if you are in Valencia or Madrid, some scooters have the button on the left side).
3. In addition to the helmets, you will find hygienic wipes and the scooter’s documents.

In the case of e-bikes, using a helmet is not mandatory.

The scooter model we offer can carry two persons. In the top case you will find two helmets of different sizes for the driver and the passenger.

Only one person is allowed to ride on a bicycle.

No, only you can ride e-mopeds or e-bikes using your username. Allowing other users or people to use your Cooltra account is punished with a €100 fine, as described in our Terms and Conditions.

You have to fill in the accident report, which you will find in the scooter together with its documents. Remember to inform our customer service as soon as possible so that they can advise you on how to proceed and collect the scooter. You can contact them by phone or using the in-app chat.

If you have a bike accident, please contact our Customer Service directly.

You must have your phone charged because you need the app to start and end your ride.

If you run out of battery while riding your scooter, you can press the vehicle’s ‘Start’ button for 30 seconds until it turns off; this will automatically set your ride in ‘Pause’ mode until you can charge the phone or get in touch with us to finish the ride remotely.

If it happens while you are riding a bike, please contact our Customer Service department to assist you on how to park it. You will not be able to leave the bike unattended and will continue to be responsible for whatever happens to it until it is properly parked, anchored with the chain, and with the rear wheel yellow lever lowered.

You can ride the scooter on all roads were 50cc scooters are allowed. Remember that you must park the scooter in the area that is highlighted on the app map. Before starting your ride, take the scooter range into account so you can finish your ride within this area.

If you ride by bike, you must park it in the bike public racks, shaped as an inverted “U”, that are available for this purpose in the city. If you need to ride on the sidewalk, please check the Barcelona City Council’s regulations.

Yes. Our entire fleet is electric, so you can move around in a sustainable and environment-friendly way. Moreover, for every kilometer traveled with an Cooltra scooter, you are saving 80g of CO2.

Sure. If you need to stop for a while, just press the ‘Pause’ button in the app. This pause will only cost you €0,10/min (€6/hour) both on scooter and bike.

If you are riding a scooter, once you reach your destination, park it in the areas provided for that purpose, put the helmets in the top case/seat, and slide the ‘Finish’ button in the app. Make sure you park the scooter correctly – within the authorized area shown on the app map and in a place where it is allowed by city hall regulations. Moreover, you must take a photo showing the scooter’s license plate to prove it is parked correctly. We take coexistence in public spaces very seriously!

If you are traveling by bike, you must park in the designated areas for this kind of vehicle – the inverted U bike racks.

Follow the instructions on the app to lock it with the chain and manually lower the yellow lever that blocks the rear wheel. Confirm the action on the app and take a photo of the bike showing that it is correctly locked and parked in a correct place.

Do not hesitate to contact our customer service via chat if you have any kind of problem, whether to start, during, or at the end of the session.

When signing up with Cooltra, you must enter your credit or debit card details. Every time your usage reaches €20, the system will automatically charge the amount to your card.

Indeed, for each friend you invite to Cooltra, we will reward you and your friend with 10 euros. He/she will receive his or her credit immediately, and you will receive it when your friend makes his or her first ride with us.

Although you can move around freely in your city, vehicle pick-up and parking areas are limited. This is the area that is shown in a lighter color on the app map. To end your ride, you must always park within the designated area. On the other hand, you have to take each city’s parking regulations into account. Users are solely responsible for correctly parking the vehicle they use and will be liable for any sanctions from the authorities resulting from improper use.

If you find a fine upon arrival at the vehicle, don’t worry; keep it inside the top case/seat of the scooter. We, at Cooltra, keep a log of all rentals and can identify the user who has parked the scooter incorrectly and who must therefore pay the fine.

While using the vehicle, you are solely responsible for any violation committed from the moment you park until it is picked up by another user, including any fines resulting from incorrect parking.

Our team will identify the responsible user, who will then receive the fine and handle it.
