Luup Resumes Services in Sapporo

Luup, a prominent player in the micro-mobility sector, is excited to announce the resumption of its services in Sapporo, Hokkaido, starting April 15, 2026, at 10:00 AM. This highly anticipated return comes with great news for the residents and visitors, including an engaging safety seminar coordinated with local authorities, as well as an attractive unlimited ride campaign.

Exciting Campaigns and Safety Initiatives

To enhance user experience and ensure the safety of all riders, Luup will host a safety seminar at the iconic red brick Sapporo City Hall Garden on the day services restart. This seminar aims to educate participants about bicycle and e-scooter traffic rules, promoting safe riding practices in the community. Moreover, an exclusive 'Unlimited Ride Campaign' will run until April 24, allowing users to enjoy rides of up to 15 minutes at no cost, multiple times throughout the campaign period.
