Lime: How the company's e-scooters work

Scooters from Lime are quite easy to use and rent. The process is simply tied to an app.

1. First, you need the associated Lime app, where you can select a scooter to rent.
2. To do this, you use the built-in QR scanner and point your smartphone's camera at the code on the scooter.
3. Once the scooter has been recognized, you can confirm that you would like to start the ride.
4. Of course, a payment method must be set up beforehand, through which the rental fee is calculated.
