Companies change their terms quietly. We read every version and catch what actually changed. One email a week on the changes that matter and what they mean.
This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
These terms govern your use of Lime's scooters, bikes, and related services. If you keep using Lime after they update the terms, you're automatically bound by the new version — you cannot sue Lime in court or join a class action, only individual arbitration is available. You're also on the hook financially for damaged, lost, or stolen vehicles up to $1,500, and Lime's insurance won't cover you if you've broken any of the rules.
Lime's Terms of Service establish the conditions under which users access and use Lime's Services and Products, including binding obligations on payment, acceptable use, parking, and ride termination. Lime disclaims all express and implied warranties to the extent permitted by law and excludes liability for lost profits, consequential, and punitive damages when law permits, while requiring users to broadly indemnify Lime's Released Parties against claims arising from their use of the Services and Products. Lime reserves sole discretion to terminate user access at any time for any or no reason, and may amend the Terms at any time, with continued use constituting acceptance of revised terms. All justiciable disputes must be resolved through final and binding individual arbitration, with class, collective, and representative actions mutually waived. Users bear direct financial liability for vehicle damage, loss, or theft up to $1,500, and insurance coverage is voided for incidents occurring during a breach of the Terms.
As a Lime user, you are personally responsible for ensuring your ride ends properly in the App — charges run until the App confirms the ride is locked. You are financially liable for vehicle damage, loss, or theft up to $1,500, and Lime's personal accident and rider liability coverage does not apply if you are in breach of the Terms at the time of an incident, including riding while impaired. You cannot recover consequential or punitive damages from Lime when law permits that exclusion, and you must individually indemnify Lime's Released Parties against a broad range of claims tied to your use. If Lime updates its Terms, you can stop using the Services before continuing to avoid being bound by the revised version.
