Understanding your trip payments

When you complete a trip, the payment you receive will be less than the fare you’ll see displayed in your app at the end of a trip because the Uber fee is subtracted from the total fare.

The Uber fee

The Uber fee is a portion of the fare that goes to Uber. It helps us cover essential operational costs such as:

  • Maintaining and advancing our technology
  • Developing new features for the app
  • Marketing to help grow our user base
  • Processing payments for drivers like you

Viewing your earnings

To see what you’ve earned after the Uber fee has been deducted, check your payment statement. It will display your final payout, not including the Uber fee.

Remember

  • Your take-home pay is the trip fare minus the Uber fee
  • Always refer to your payment statement for accurate earnings
