Points and rewards
Get those good vibes, free rides, and more. Whether you’re after a free membership extension or some limited-edition Bike Angels swag, working more rides into your routine is the way to do it.
Cash in your points
As you help create a more balanced bikeshare system across the city, we’ll tally up points in your Bay Wheels account for each qualifying ride. If you earn more than 10 points in a month, you’ll see rewards ready to redeem.
The goods
Every Bike Angels point you earn is added to your monthly and lifetime tracker. Monthly points start fresh on the first of each calendar month. Lifetime points, as the name implies, never reset — take as long as you need to earn that swag!*
Monthly Rewards
Bronze Basket reward (10 points): Earn 10 minutes of ebike credit (Awarded as $2.00 of credit).
Silver Spoke reward (20-80 points): Free 1-week membership extension for every 20 points earned up to 80 max (80 points equals a month on us!).
Gold Gear reward (80-200 points): Once you hit 80 points, you’ll score Lyft credit, which can be used for all Lyft or Bay Wheels rides ($0.15/point awarded every 10 points from 80-200 points).
Platinum Pedal reward (200+ points): Score 200 points, and you’ll earn 33% more Lyft credits for each point ($0.20/point
awarded every 10 points over 200 points).
Lifetime Badges
Track your journey as a Bike Angel—every point you earn is added your lifetime tracker. Lifetime points don’t reset, adding up to automatically earn you special swag as you hit new points milestones.
Joy Rider (250 points): Get extended ride time on Classic bikes (60 minutes where there was once only 45!). Plus, score extra style points with a free Joy Rider pin.
Casual Cruiser (500 points): A Bike Angels water bottle will keep you going the distance. Plus, you can proudly don your Casual Cruiser pin everywhere you ride.
Hustlin’ Hero (2,500 points): These biking gloves are badass. And as an extra little show of thanks for all the rides, we’re throwing a Hustlin’ Hero pin your way, too.
Power Angel (5,000 points): Not many make it here, but those who do will be rewarded with a backpack and coveted Power Angel pin.

PRO TIPS
Get rewarded for rebalancing
Lifetime points reward the most dedicated Bike Angels with exclusive gifts. Lifetime points never reset. These rewards are shipped to your mailing address on file.
Watch your app
Use your Bay Wheels app to find bright pink high-points stations and to track all the points you’ve earned. But if you happen to grab a bike from your linked Lyft app, you’ll still earn you points.
