Description
Santander Cycles is the self-service, bike-sharing scheme for short journeys in inner London. The official Santander Cycles app from Transport for London is the only app to send bike release codes straight to your smartphone. So you can skip past the docking station terminal and get on your bike quicker. Simply register with your bank card, and use the app to ‘Hire now’ from a nearby docking station. Follow the instructions to get your bike release code. Tap the code into the docking point and you’re good to go!
You can also: • See up-to-the minute information about which docking stations have bikes and spaces available • Plan a journey with an easy to follow map • Receive notifications – for example, summarising the cost at the end of your hire • View your recent journeys and charges • Save your favourite docking stations • Become a London Rider - complete challenges and hire cycles to earn entries into a weekly prize draw!
Each bike release code is valid for 10 minutes at your chosen docking station. Please note the app doesn’t reserve bikes. If there are no bikes available at the docking station, don’t worry. Use the app to find a nearby docking station with bikes, and get another bike release code to use there. You won’t be charged until you use the release code. You must be 18 or over to hire a bike, and 14 or over to ride one. For full Santander Cycles terms and conditions, see tfl.gov.uk/santandercycles

Seemed to have fixed the App, so it remembers my Card details!

Keep having to input my card details whenever I want to hire a bike and always has an error. Useless app
★☆☆☆☆Thomas Vincent-Sweet· Oct 16, 2025
Update. Had a day pass active. Tried to get a bike, and couldn't get it to work to hire any bike at any station. Your service needs a lot of improvements to make it reliable. It wasn't the Internet, that worked absolutely fine. 100% bad app resiliency.

PLEASE avoid. I downloaded the app, I understood that it was only really good for seeing docking areas from other reviews. I decided to go and pay via the docking area itself. I tried two bike areas, both the touch screen didn't work. It frustrated me so much that I just decided to walk around London instead. I was really hopeful about using Santander bikes, only to be super disappointed. Next time I will try and use the Lime bikes, hopefully they are not stressful and useless.
