Idea: Buy Citi Bike Key using Bike Angel points
I'd like Citi Bike to offer the ability to purchase a new Bike Key using Bike Angel points.
I'm aware that the bike angels lifetime award for 1,500 points (Steady Pedaler) includes a free Bike Key and there's a one-time offer to order a Bike Key for Citi Bike members using a discount code available at https://account.citibikenyc.com/profile but I've already exhausted both of these options and want to purchase another one.
The motivation for this idea came after technical issues I'm currently facing when trying to order a new bike key at https://store.citibikenyc.com/products/citi-bike-key resulting in the error message "There was an issue processing your payment. Try again or use a different payment method." even after trying 4 different credit and debit cards. I've submitted a separate support ticket for this issue.
I'd suggest the price for a bike key to be 50 points given Lyft credit is $2.00 for 10 points and E-Bike credit is $2.50 for 10 points and a Bike Key costs $10 on the Citi Bike Store.
Lastly, as a secondary comment: The turnaround time for bike key purchases is extraordinarily long for such a simple item (it can take several weeks to a few months based on my own experience and that of others) - I strongly urge Lyft to look for ways to decrease the processing and shipping times for bike key orders.
