To expand access to sustainable transportation in the communities we serve, Bird offers the Community Pricing Program. This initiative provides a 50% discount on rides for eligible individuals, including low-income riders, veterans, Pell Grant recipients, teachers, senior citizens, and select community and nonprofit organizations. The program is available in multiple markets, including Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Los Angeles, CA; and many more.
To enroll, download the Bird app, create an account and then email proof of eligibility, your government-issued identification, your full name, and phone number using the form here. Accepted forms of eligibility include, but are not limited to, SNAP card, carte Pôle Emploi, utility bill showing low-income program enrollment, a government-issued ID showing age 65+, a contract RSA; French statement of retirement or a card Navigo Améthyste.
Additionally, riders in select cities can pay with cash at over 27,000 CVS and 7-11 retailers for Bird credits or pay with prepaid debit cards, and ride without a smartphone using our proprietary SMS text messaging flow. Low-income riders in select cities can also qualify for our Bird Access program for $5/ month. Learn more about that program here.
