DB Rad: A Sustainable Cycling App for Rewards and Discounts
DB Rad+ is an Android app developed by Deutsche Bahn, available for free in the Travel & Navigation category. This innovative app encourages users to cycle in participating cities and rewards them with exclusive discounts and prizes.
With DB Rad+, every kilometer counts for both the environment and the user. By simply installing and activating the app while cycling in the designated areas, users can start accumulating valuable kilometers without any registration or hassle.
The app records the distance traveled using either personal or shared bikes, and conveniently displays the accumulated kilometers. These kilometers can be exchanged for attractive rewards and discounts at local partners such as cafes, farm shops, and museums, which are conveniently listed on the app's map.
Redeeming kilometers is a breeze - simply scan the QR code at participating partners, and your new kilometer count will be instantly updated and displayed in real-time.
DB Rad+ not only benefits individual users but also the entire community. As the kilometers collected by participants in the designated areas accumulate, the community as a whole can enjoy bicycle-friendly infrastructure improvements and events initiated by the municipalities or Deutsche Bahn.
This app is just the beginning for your city. DB Rad+ was developed as a pilot project for sustainable mobility within the "Initiative Zukunftsbahnhöfe" by Deutsche Bahn. Thanks to the active engagement of the community and positive feedback, the app will gradually be offered and further developed in additional locations. Your feedback is valuable, so please feel free to rate the app here in the Google Play Store.
