Bikekey is a circular bike registry platform designed for insurers, municipalities, and citizens. It connects digital bike IDs (QR-stickers) with verified ownership through MitID and enables fast recovery of stolen or lost bikes

If a bike remains unclaimed, cities can reuse it legally—turning waste into value. No IT integration is required. The platform cuts theft, streamlines returns, and reduces municipal bike waste.

Already active in Denmark and launched nationally in Norway, Bikekey reduces theft by up to 45% and recirculates up to 16% of found bikes. The platform is GDPR-compliant, user-friendly, and ready to scale.
