Bayer 04 and transport provider wupsi expand long-standing partnership

The long-standing successful collaboration between Bayer 04 and the transport service provider wupsi GmbH has been expanded: From January 2026, 100 wupsi bikes with Bayer 04 branding will be available for hire throughout the city of Leverkusen. They will complement the many existing offers and services that provide key support, especially for fans travelling to and from home matches at the BayArena.

Match travel is a major issue for every Werkself home game. As the transport service provider in Leverkusen and the region, wupsi and Bayer 04 therefore entered into a close and reliable partnership many years ago, which has continued to develop over the years.

For example, wupsi supports Bayer 04 on matchdays by providing a comprehensive scheduled and shuttle bus service for home and visiting fans, who can travel directly to the BayArena from major hubs such as railway stations, bus stations or park-and-ride areas with wupsi. The bus service is supplemented by other mobility options such as the wupsiRad, which can also be used for travelling to the stadium.

And this option is now being expanded: From January 2026, Bayer 04 and wupsi will be expanding their partnership, with 100 Bayer 04-branded wupsi bikes available for hire throughout the city. In addition to travelling to the stadium, these can of course also be used for any other journey within the city.

Bayer 04 and wupsi are thus supplementing their fleet - which already consists of wupsi service buses and a wupsi coach in Bayer 04 livery - and are taking the next step together in favour of sustainable, environmentally friendly and resource-saving travel in and for Leverkusen. In addition, Bayer 04 and wupsi are relieving the city of the heavy volume of car traffic and the associated pressure on parking spaces.
