Donkey Republic is a start-up based in Copenhagen. We started in 2015 with 100 bikes and now have more than 16.000 bikes and e-bikes spread across Europe in cities like Ghent (BE), Rotterdam (NL), Amsterdam (NL), The Hague (NL), Copenhagen (DK), Aarhus (DK), Malmö (SE), Budapest (HU), Barcelona (ES) and many other places. In these cities, we have aroused the interest and enthusiasm of our customers, gained valuable experience and promoted sustainable transport.

Our vision is to make cities greener, healthier and more fun to live in. We want to connect the whole of Europe with shared bicycles, so that no matter which city or station you get off at, you can easily get around on a Donkey. We believe that innovation and micro-mobility have the potential to create huge improvements in people’s daily lives and at the same time play an important role in solving the climate crisis.

The whole team behind Donkey Republic is driven by making a positive impact with our fleet of bikes – both on the environment, people and by providing a unique transport service for around town, but also by supporting responsible regulation. We do not believe that this can be done by investing solely in infrastructure, but also need to make it easier and “on demand” to choose a bicycle over carbon-intensive transport alternatives. We do this by setting up partnerships with companies (make it cheaper for employees), MaaS apps (make it more accessible) and municipalities (make it available and visible everywhere), in order to stimulate the modal shift.
