Hi, we are Swapfiets! 👋

We are on a mission to make cities more liveable by getting more people on bikes. To make sure our members can enjoy the ride, we take care of everything around their bike subscription.

We are continuing to evolve this domain, complete our migration from the legacy platform and build a strong foundation for the future.

• Contribute to technical standards, design discussions and improvements to the way we work.
