Bikeep used as a platform for an e-bike charging network in New Zealand
Build your innovative business and strengthen your brand with our platform just like Big Street Bikers did with Locky Docks.
Big Street Bikers partnered with Bikeep to launch Locky Docks, a branded e-bike and e-scooter charging network rolling out across New Zealand. The initiative demonstrates how Bikeep's smart parking and charging infrastructure can serve as a white-label platform for entrepreneurs and mobility companies looking to build their own charging networks.
"Wellington City Councillor Tamatha Paul is putting forward an amendment for the council to approve a series of Locky Docks charging stations being set up on city streets.

Locky Docks stations are designed for public street deployment, giving riders a secure, app-controlled place to lock and charge their e-bikes and e-scooters. The stations support both electric and conventional bikes, making them a flexible solution for cities managing growing micromobility demand.
Bikeep's platform enables partners to deploy smart, connected infrastructure under their own brand — handling the hardware, software, and connectivity needed to run a modern shared or public charging network.
