Win An Electric Bike

BetterPoints is an app that Surrey residents use to receive rewards for journeys by foot, bike and bus – and between May 2024 to April 2025 a massive 893,190 journeys were logged on the app! Tip of the hat Surrey! Racking up miles on the app converts into rewards at local shops and cafes, which you can spend to further reward your healthy travel habits.

Now users of BetterPoints have the chance to win an E-bike worth £1,299 by logging at least 10 minutes of journey by April 12th. You can log journeys on scooters, e-bikes, e-cargo bikes, bus and on-demand bus (eg Surrey Connect), or train, as well as walking, running or cycling.

Katie, pictured, won the last BetterPoints competition – here’s what she has to say about it…

“I was delighted! I couldn’t believe I had won. My dad has an e-bike, as does my close colleague. She mentioned a number of times how she benefits from having one, so I’ve been tempted. I am increasing the number of days I do at work, so it is the perfect time to receive the e-bike as I will be commuting in more than ever. It’s great knowing that with the extra power boost I will be able to cycle to work with relative ease when I don’t feel super motivated.”

Why Use BetterPoints?

BetterPoints is designed to help drive ‘modal shift’ – which, in a nutshell, is shifting residents from private car journeys to healthier modes of travel.

Not all of us can cycle, be it physical issues or lack of safe routes, but most of us can find a good walking route for short journeys, and even short active journeys of 10 minutes can have positive health impacts. If we can even swap out a journey or two per week the benefits are great:
