Handling Cash Payment Issues
If you’re driving with Uber and experience cash payment issues, here’s what you need to know:
When you’re paid less than expected
- Tap COLLECT CASH in the App.
- Select OTHER AMOUNT and enter the amount you actually received.
- If this option isn’t available, visit our Help Center page: I didn’t receive the full amount of money for assistance.
- Ask the Rider if they’d like to get their change as Uber Credits in the App.
- If the Rider agrees, press COLLECT CASH to view the simplified receipt with the collectible amount.
- Select OTHER AMOUNT and enter the amount you actually received.
- If the option is missing, please go to the article: I received more money for the trip for support.
When you don’t have change
- Offer the Rider the option to get the change as Uber Credits within the App.
- Tap “COLLECT CASH” to view a simplified receipt with the amount due.
- Before completing the trip, select “SEE MORE”, then “OTHER”, and enter the amount you received.
- If this option doesn’t show, please use the Help Center Page: I received more money for the trip for help.
- This process adds credits to the Rider’s account without affecting your earnings.
Remember:
Always report the correct amount received. Inaccurate reporting can lead to restrictions on your account.
If the Rider has a promotion
- Riders pay the discounted amount shown in their promotion.
- Your earnings will not be impacted, as Uber will cover the discount.
- You’ll receive the full amount that was shown when you accepted the trip.
