From lectures to groceries, from nights out to early-morning exams — your bike will become your best friend. That’s where Swapfiets makes life easy.
Instead of buying a second-hand bike (and worrying about repairs, theft, or hidden issues), you simply subscribe to a bike. If something breaks, they fix it. If it can’t be fixed, they swap it. No stress, no surprises.
Starting fresh in a new country is already a lot. Swapfiets removes the typical “Dutch bike stress”:
No big upfront investment
No searching on Marktplaats
No surprise repair costs
No stress if something breaks
You pick your bike, choose your subscription, and you’re ready to cycle anywhere, campus, city centre, internship, train station.
If you’re staying for one semester or a full degree, a subscription can be a smart choice:
You avoid the risk of buying a stolen or damaged second-hand bike
Repairs are included
Theft coverage options are available
You can cancel when your stay ends
For many international students, it’s simply the easiest way to get cycling from day one.
We’ve partnered with Swapfiets to make your start in the Netherlands even easier.
