TfL and Santander launch new cycle hire app with QR unlocking and in-dock e-bike charging from 2025
Transport for London and Santander will launch a new Santander Cycles app on 17 November, introducing QR code bike unlocking, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and advance pass purchases. TfL is installing in-dock charging systems for e-bikes next year to ensure consistent availability, while extending its partnership with Serco to support further e-bike rollout across London. A service outage is planned from 13 to 17 November for the app launch.
Why it matters
The in-dock charging infrastructure signals a shift towards integrated charging solutions for shared mobility fleets, relevant to operators planning docking station electrification. The Serco partnership extension points to ongoing procurement opportunities in London's cycle hire and charging infrastructure expansion.
