High population and constantly developing new technology, cities are becoming an important center point for a new circular economy which is driven by emerging and long-standing sharing activities.

This paper looks at the different and common characteristics of sharing economy model in the cities with emphasis on time banks. The main aim of the paper is to determine the influence of time banks on urban development and to find out what time banks bring to the city. There are used several research methods in the paper.
