🚲 Singapore's competition watchdog warns HelloBike for trying to fix prices with Anywheel   Homegrown company Anywheel rejected the overtures of HelloBike on 2 occasions, instead, reporting the incidents to the Competition and Consumer Association of Singapore   READ: https://asia1.news/4i7cd4E   Follow @AsiaOnecom for all the latest updates.   🚲 Full Details: CCS Warns HelloRide (HelloBike) Over Attempted Price Talks with Anywheel   Published: 17 Aug 2026 | Source: AsiaOne / CCS       📌 Background   - Parties involved: HelloRide (branded as HelloBike outside China, operated by HelloBikeSG Pte Ltd) and Anywheel — the only two licensed shared bicycle operators in Singapore. - Regulator: Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCS), under the Competition Act (2004). - Outcome: CCS issued a written warning to HelloRide; no legal infringement found, but conduct strongly condemned.       🔍 What Happened   - Two attempts: A key HelloRide representative approached Anywheel twice — in July 2025 and October 2025 — to propose pricing discussions between the two firms. - Anywheel’s response: Rejected both overtures, did not engage, and reported both incidents to CCS. - Investigation: CCS launched a probe after receiving Anywheel’s complaints.       ⚖️ CCS’ Findings & Position   - No breach of law: No commercially sensitive info was exchanged, no actual price talks occurred → did not violate Section 34 of the Competition Act. - Conduct NOT condoned: CCS emphasised that as the only two players in the market, any price coordination would have a direct, significant impact on competition and consumers. - Warning issued: HelloRide received a formal warning letter; CCS will not hesitate to take enforcement action in future cases of anti-competitive conduct. - Praise for Anywheel: CCS CEO Alvin Koh commended Anywheel for acting responsibly and reporting the approaches — "coming forward will always be the right course of action."       🗣️ HelloRide’s Response   - Hayden Choo, CEO of HelloRide Singapore: Welcomed CCS’ conclusion that no law was broken. - Explanation: Said outreach was meant to discuss rising MRT fares and broader transport implications — not to coordinate bicycle pricing. "That was neither our intention nor what ultimately occurred." - Commitment: Stated full compliance with competition rules; now focused on fair competition and service improvements.       💡 Key Takeaway   Even attempted price discussions between competitors — especially in a duopoly market — are taken very seriously by Singapore’s regulator. Firms are expected to set prices independently, and reporting such approaches is actively encouraged.
