Connecting your Clipper card to your account
Clipper is the all-in-one transit card for the Bay Area, and is your key to unlock Lyft Bike. Unlocking never deducts from your Clipper cash value, serving only as your access key. Link your Lyft Bike membership to your Clipper card and make the transition from transit to bike a breeze.
NOTE: New 19-digit Clipper cards are not yet compatible with Lyft Bike.
