Stale pricing data on website

I was just looking at the station JSON data and clicked through the rental URI

"rental_uris": {
"android": "https://bkn.lft.to/lastmile_qr_scan",
"ios": "https://bkn.lft.to/lastmile_qr_scan"
},

which took me to https://citibikenyc.com/qrcodes where I see the following outdated information:

Pricing

Get started with a single ride or a day pass.

$3.50/ride

Includes the first 30 minutes of one ride on a classic Citi Bike. When you upgrade your ride to an ebike, it will be an extra $0.18/min.

$15/day

24 hours of Citi Bike access, includes unlimited 30-minute rides on a Classic Citi Bike.

 

Although its nice to see the ebike per-minute price given (what about classic bike price after 30 minutes?), these are rather out of date compared to the updated pricing in the footer link (https://account.citibikenyc.com/access-plans):

 

Single ride
$4.79/trip

Great for quick trips

Day pass
$19

Perfect for visitors exploring New York

    Hi there, SashaMetro, thanks for joining the community and posting about this. It looks like you're right--this is an older pricing site with outdated information. I flagged this article with our team to make sure the most current information is surfacing. I appreciate all your contributions to the community so far! 😇
