There are all sorts of costs here and risks. How much is Bird paying per scooter? Each charger? I have not gone through the sign up process? Are you on the hook for the chargers or does Bird just send them out and hope for the best? Besides the obvious strife between fellow "chargers" it won't be long before cities get into the act and pass ordinances or enforce them to take them off the streets until they get their share as well. Figure that a whole licensing scheme will pop up and eventually be used to squeeze out smaller competitors who try to get into this arena |

I don't think there's a large profit margin in that price given the price of a 280Wh battery and the other components.
These companies also have to add some parts to the scooters such as GPS.
