4.3. The bicycle service provided by SG Bike is a fee-based service, with the user required to pay a fee for using the fee-based service. For such fee-based services, SG Bike will do its best to give the user a clear reminder before the user can use it.

The details are as follows:4.3.1. The amount of money available for trip fares to be deducted from (hereinafter referred to as 'account balance') includes top-amounts made by the user via the "SG Bike" software (hereinafter referred to as 'top-up amounts') as well as, including but not limited to, rewards and rebates, in the forms of, including but not limited to, valid coupons and rebates (hereinafter referred to as 'reward balance').

4.5. In the absence of any special offers or promotional activities, SG Bike charges a bicycle rental fee based on the time of rental. SG Bike will make available different bicycles models with different rental fees. Please note the different rental fees indicated on the bicycles and "SG Bike" software. Take the SG-02 model as an example: SGD $1 for the first half an hour, including durations within half an hour; SGD $0.03 for every minute thereafter, including durations within a minute. For example, if you unlock the bicycle for 1 minute or 30 minutes, SG Bike will charge SGD $1. For 31 minutes, SG Bike will charge SGD $1.03 and, for every additional minute, SGD $0.03 will be charged. The rental fees for other models are based on the calculated based on the base prices of the first half an hour.

4.6.1. The bicycle is parked in a designated parking area of the SG Bike (hereinafter referred to as "Geostation") or government-authorised legal parking area. The "SG Bike" software interface incorporates prompts on the location of Geostations. Alternatively, yellow boxes on the ground demarcate such parking areas. If a bicycle is parked and locked outside a Geostation, the bicycle will sound an audio prompt to warn users not to park outside Geostations. There will also be an on-screen pop-up notification on the "SG Bike" software to warn users of such inappropriate parking. 4.6.2. The user successfully locks the bicycle. After a bicycle is successfully locked in a Geostation, there will be indicative audio prompts and an on-screen pop-up notification on the "SG Bike" software to confirm that the bicycle has indeed been successfully returned.

4.7. If the user cancels usage of the bicycle within 3 minutes of unlocking it, in accordance with the 4.6 clause under this Agreement, SG Bike will not charge for this unlocking of the bicycle.

4.8. If the area locks the bicycle under a Geostation, please ensure that it is parked in a government-authorised legal parking area.

4.9. SG Bike will impose penalties for illegal parking or bicycles in accordance with government regulations, including regarding the relevant specifics of implementation.

In the event of a lock failure, the user should immediately submit raise the issue of the anomalous scenarios to SG Bike over the "SG Bike" software or over the phone, so that SG Bike can implement timely measures to ensure the safety of users and resolve the fault. SG Bike reserves the right to demand compensation for cases of theft or damages caused by your failure to securely lock the bicycle, or by your failure to contact SG Bike in a timely manner.

4.11. When parking temporarily, please park your bicycle in public parking areas permitted by laws and regulations or local authorities. Do not park at places that will affect traffic and pedestrians.

4.12. The user understands that SG Bike only provides bicycle services and that, apart from that, equipment costs associated with bicycle services (such as personal cycling equipment and fees related to Internet access or mobile networks) as well as related fees collected by third parties (such as custodial fees and fines paid by users due to violation of the law during the user of bicycle services) shall be borne by the user themselves.

4.13. In view of the unusual nature of the bicycle service, the user agrees that SG Bike has the right to change, discontinue or terminate part or all of the service (including fee-based and free services). If a free service is changed, discontinued or terminated, SG Bike is under no obligation to notify the user nor does it have any legal responsibility towards any user or third party. If a fee-based service is changed, discontinued or terminated, SG Bike shall notify users in advance and provide affected users with an alternative fee-based service of equivalent value. If the user is unwilling to accept the alternative fee-based service, SG Bike shall refund the remaining service fee to the user after deducting the amount corresponding to the user's use of the service.

4.14. The user understands that SG Bike needs to overhaul or undertake maintenance for the "SG Bike" bicycle system on a regular or irregular basis.

However, with the exception of some extraordinary circumstances, announcements will be made in advance.

4.15. The user who uses the bicycle service must be a healthy person who meets the age requirement (over 12 years old) and physical conditions for usage of the bicycle. Users who have the following health conditions, including but not limited to epilepsy, heart disease, hypertension, temporary dizziness, visual impairment, hearing disorder, disability, and other chronic illnesses including but not limited to drunkenness or intermittent mental illnesses, may not use the bicycle service. Otherwise, the responsibilities and consequences shall be borne by the user.

4.16. SG Bike cannot guarantee in real-time that all equipment under the "SG Bike" bicycle system is running smoothly without fault. The user should still take reasonable care and conduct basic inspection before actually unlocking, using or returning the bicycle, including but not limited to checking if the bicycle has been damaged or whether it has successfully been returned to a Geostation. Pay special attention to whether the handlebar is tight and rotates flexibly, whether the brake is effective, and whether the body of the frame is damaged. For bicycles found to contain faults (regardless of whether discovered before unlocking or mid-trip), use of the bicycle should be ceased and the bicycle returned to a Geostation. In addition, the user should notify SG Bike immediately.

4.17. Users should consciously abide by relevant laws and regulations, and obey the instructions and management guidelines by the traffic police. If the user is subjected to penalties or other punishments meted out by the government for illegal cycling, use or parking of bicycles, we may stop providing bicycle services to the user, with these restrictions either temporary or permanent, according to the severity of circumstances. In the event of a traffic accident during a user's ride, the user shall cooperate with the government department in accordance with relevant regulations. We recommend that users purchase suitable personal safety insurance in case they need it. If the user unfortunately meets with an accident, we will not bear any legal responsibility unless the user can prove that the accident is caused directly due to the inherent defects of the bicycle itself.

4.18. It is forbidden to ride the bicycle to fetch another person, otherwise any personal injury or bicycle damages will be borne by the user. In the event of dangerous weather such as typhoon, heavy rain, snow or ice, or in situations when safe and legal riding cannot be ensured, users should immediately cease cycling and return the bicycle to a Geostation. We may also take measures to suspend the service, and remind users through related media channels.

4.19. If a user has a dispute with a third party regarding the use of a bicycle, the issue shall be resolved by the parties themselves. We do not bear any relevant obligations regarding compensation. If losses are inflicted upon us, the user shall be liable for compensating us. 

4.20. For your safe use of the bicycle service, we remind you to pay special attention: the maximum load of the bicycle is 100kg and the maximum load of the basket (if any) is 5kg. The user cannot mount or hang any item on the bicycle, apart from placing it in the basket. Items in the basket shall not exceed 1.5 metres from the ground, and the width shall not exceed 0.15 metres of the handlebar. The front length of the item shall not exceed the wheel and the rear end shall not exceed 0.3 metres of the bicycle body.

4.21. The user should take care of the bicycle and use it reasonably, normally and safely. The user has to compensate SG Bike for all losses arising from mishandling (including but not limited to users unlocking the bicycle but not retrieving the bicycle in time, and users suspending or terminating use of the bicycle but not locking it in time) if the bicycle is lost, stolen, destroyed, partially damaged etc, such that its normal functions are compromised.

4.22. We are not responsible for the personal care of the goods. The user should check whether his or her personal belongings are missing before leaving the Geostation or the bicycle when retrieving or changing bicycles.

5. Family Plan

5.1. The Family Plan service is a fee-based service provided by SG Bike. Through the Family Plan service, users can rent multiple bicycles at the same time by binding RFID cards and authorise others (hereinafter referred to as "unauthorised users").

5.2. Regardless of whether the Family Plan service is used, users can rent one bicycle at the same time with the "SG Bike" software main account. After the user activates the Family Plan service, each RFID card added can rent one bicycle at the same time. Each user can add up to 2 RFID cards and can hence rent 3 bicycles at the same time. 

5.3. Users can add, edit, change and log out of RFID cards through the "SG Bike" software. 

5.4. Before the user hands over the rented bicycle to the authorised user, the user must verify and ensure that the authorised user complies with the conditions specified in Section 4.15 of this Agreement, and must ensure that the authorised user has carefully read, fully understood and fully accepted all the terms of this Agreement. The user agrees to assume full responsibility for the consequences of the authorised user's breach of any clause of this Agreement. 

5.5. The use of bicycles unlocked by the user is restricted to the user or authorised user(s). It is strictly forbidden for users to authorise or lend others the bicycles for use.

5.6. The user understands that the authorised user cannot directly obtain the service which has to be provided through the "SG Bike" software, and that it does not exempt the user from being responsible for the authorised user's violation of the terms of Agreement.

5.7. Users need to keep and manage linked RFID cards themselves. If the user realises that a binded RFID card has been illegally used, abnormally used, or lost, it should be unbound immediately through the "SG Bike" software. The user is solely responsible for any resulting consequences, including but not limited to, loss or replication of the card.

5.8. Under normal circumstances, and without any additional promotions, offers or incentives, SG Bike charges a Family Plan service fee at a rate of SGD$1 per 30 days.

5.9. The Family Plan service fee can only be paid using the top-up balance. 5.10. The user agrees that SG Bike can automatically deduct SGD$1 from the user's top-up balance for the Family Plan renewal if the user does not opt out of the Family Plan service. This is to ensure that the user can use the Family Plan service as per normal. The deduction will occur immediately after the expiration of the preceding month of subscription to the Family Plan service. The user understands that the user de-linking all added RFID cards does not mean that the Family Plan service is opted out of, and that, opting out can be done through the SG Bike's software Family Plan close button.

5.11. If the user's Family Plan service expires and the top-up balance is insufficient to pay the service fee, the Family Plan service will no longer be provided. However, this does not affect users' use of other bicycle services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

5.12. The user understands that the fees paid for the Family Plan service grant only access rights to use the Family Plan. When the bicycle service is used through the Family Plan, you will be charged separately in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
