Lime

Runs a free-floating network of electric scooters and bicycles, including Gen4 e-scooters and e-bikes plus seated formats such as LimeBike and LimeGlider. Riders use its app to find, reserve, unlock, pay for, and end trips; vehicles are dockless and parked in approved locations.

Combines internally designed vehicles, rider and fleet software, telemetry, local field operations, and government-relations teams. Contract manufacturers build the fleet, while employees, logistics providers, and contingent workers deploy, charge, maintain, reposition, and retrieve it across cities in North America, Europe, and other markets.

Earns mainly from pay-as-you-go rentals, with prepaid minute bundles and monthly subscriptions providing additional revenue. Nearly every market depends on a city permit, which controls access, fleet caps, parking, speed, safety, and renewal terms.
