Six ways to partner with BikeRegister

Each partnership type is built around a different organisation's needs. Find the one that fits yours — or get in touch if your situation doesn't fit neatly into any of these.

Insurance

Insurers & brokers

Bike theft claims cost UK insurers hundreds of millions annually. BikeRegister integration reduces fraudulent claims, speeds up legitimate ones, and gives policyholders a tangible reason to register — which makes recovery more likely and repeat claims less common.

  • Verify registration at point of claim — not retrospectively
  • Add registration discounts to cycle policies to drive uptake
  • API access for automated certificate verification
Talk to the team
Retail

Cycle retailers & brands

Offer customers registration at point of sale — either as a bundled benefit or integrated into your checkout flow. Retailers who register bikes on behalf of customers see higher customer satisfaction scores and measurably fewer theft-related returns.

  • Bundle registration with every new bike sale
  • Use the Trade Checker to avoid buying stolen stock for second-hand departments
  • Co-branded security kit available for retail resale
Talk to the team
Cycling bodies

Cycling organisations & clubs

Membership bodies, national governing organisations, and cycling clubs can offer BikeRegister registration as a member benefit — adding tangible, practical value to membership beyond discounts and magazines.

  • Discounted or complimentary registration for members
  • Co-branded communications for member safety campaigns
  • Aggregate theft data reports for advocacy work
Talk to the team
Property

Housing providers & councils

Bike theft is a persistent problem in residential developments, university campuses, and social housing estates. Offering residents access to BikeRegister registration reduces theft, reduces disputes, and supports active travel commitments.

  • Bulk registration licences for residents or staff
  • Measurable reduction in on-site bike theft incidents
  • Supports active travel and sustainable transport policies

Employer

Employers & Cycle to Work schemes

Employers running Cycle to Work schemes can include BikeRegister registration as standard, protecting the bikes they've helped fund. It's a simple addition to any existing scheme that adds meaningful employee benefit at low cost.

  • Protect bikes purchased through Cycle to Work schemes
  • Bulk registration pricing for employee programmes
  • Promotes active travel and reduces insurance exposure
Talk to the team
Technology

Technology & API partners

For platforms, apps, and marketplaces that want to integrate bike status checks natively. Our API allows you to query the database in real time and display a result inside your own product — putting stolen bike data where your users already are.

  • RESTful API with sandbox environment and full documentation
  • Query by serial number, frame ID, or e-bike plate
  • SLA-backed uptime, rate limits scaled to need

How a partnership comes together

We've kept the process straightforward. Most partnerships are live within six to eight weeks of the first conversation.

1. Get in touch

Use the enquiry form below. Tell us who you are, what kind of partnership you have in mind, and roughly how many users or customers you'd be serving. No pitch deck required.

2. Discovery call

We arrange a 30-minute call to understand your needs and confirm the right partnership model. We'll answer questions about our data, integration options, and commercial terms.

3. Agreement & setup

We issue a straightforward partnership agreement — no 40-page contracts unless your legal team wants them. API partners get sandbox access immediately so your team can begin integration while legal reviews.

4. Live and supported

We don't hand over documentation and disappear. You get a named contact for the first three months, a quarterly review, and direct access to our team if anything needs adjusting.

How we connect to your system

We offer several levels of technical integration, from a simple referral link to full API access. Your technical team will tell you which suits best — or we can advise.

Embedded widget

REST API

What our partners say

Specific outcomes from real partnerships. No generic endorsements.

Integrating BikeRegister into our claims process cut verification time from three days to under four hours. Our team can now confirm registration status and ownership in a single API call. It's made a tangible difference to how quickly we can settle legitimate claims.

Claire Matheson
Claims Operations, specialist cycle insurer
Verified partner

We started including BikeRegister registration with every new bike sale 18 months ago. The feedback from customers has been consistently positive — they appreciate the extra layer of protection, and it differentiates us from online-only competitors who don't offer anything similar.

Tom Ogilvie
Director, independent cycle retailer, Leeds
Verified partner

Offering BikeRegister registration as a member benefit has been one of the most practical things we've done in years. Members can see the value immediately — it's not a vague discount code, it's something that directly protects their bike. Renewal feedback has reflected that.

Questions about partnering

It depends on the partnership type. API and data integrations are commercial agreements. Co-branding and referral partnerships are typically revenue-share or at no cost to the partner. We'll confirm the terms during the initial conversation.
Most API integrations go live within four to six weeks, depending on your team's availability. We provide full technical documentation, a sandbox environment for testing, and direct support from our integration team.
In some cases, yes. White-label arrangements are considered for enterprise-level partners where the BikeRegister brand is acknowledged within the product or documentation. We do not offer fully anonymous data access — the database's credibility depends on its association with BikeRegister and police endorsement.
Our database and police integration is UK-only. For organisations operating across borders, we can support the UK portion of their operation. We do not currently offer international partnership agreements.

We work with a limited number of partners at any time to maintain integration quality. If we're unable to take on new partners in your sector immediately, we'll tell you clearly — and give you an honest indication of when capacity will open up.
