Currently, 24 electric scooters are available at eight dedicated ports in Fukuoka City, including Tenjin, near Hakata Station, and Marinoa City Fukuoka. The usage fee starts at 1.2 yen per minute. The hours of operation are from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., and the service is available to those over 18 years old with a driver&#8217;s license.
