Uber is all about getting to your destination hassle-free and, we want you to have the freedom to choose how to pay for your rides. You can now pay for your rides directly from your bank account using Unified Payments Interface (UPI) or the BHIM app.
UPI is a mobile first payment system which facilitates secure fund transfer between bank accounts without sharing your bank account details. This is NPCI’s (National Payments Corporation of India) step towards making India cashless.
Three reasons you should choose UPI to pay for your Uber rides:
No cash = No hassles
No need to look for exact change in your wallet at the end of every Uber ride. Now, set up the UPI payment method once, and you’re good to go for all your rides. No more cash related hassles.
Pay after the ride
No need to worry about topping up your wallet just before you book a ride. Using UPI, you pay directly through your bank account.
Secure payments
Payments through UPI are absolutely secure. We never save your bank details. Plus, money will be deducted only when you enter your PIN each time.
Uber is here to help you do your bit to grow this new and cashless India. Let’s start using UPI and pay like new India. You can start by paying for your Uber rides.
Don’t see the UPI option on your phone yet? For now, this option is available only for select Android users. Since this is a phased roll out, you may not see it immediately but we are working overtime to make this available to everyone.
There are two ways in which you can pay using UPI

Create a payment address using your Uber app
Step 1: Go to ‘Payments’ in the menu option and select ‘Add payment method’

Step 2: Select UPI and tap on ‘Continue’

Step 3: If this is the first time that you are trying to create a UPI account then you will see an option to ‘Register your device’. Click to proceed.

Step 4: If you have a dual SIM phone, you will have to select the phone number linked with the bank account you want to use.

Step 5: Select your bank from the displayed list and we will fetch the accounts linked with your mobile number.

Step 6: Select the bank account you wish to register and enter the last 6 digits and expiry date of your linked debit card

Step 7: Enter the OTP that your bank sends you and set a UPI PIN. Voila!!! You are good to go.

You can now select this as a mode of payment before you request your next trip or even choose to make UPI your default payment method.

Link an existing payment address
Step 1: You must have a ‘Payment Address’ of the UPI linked bank account you want to add. Check your bank’s UPI app or BHIM app for the unique payment address.

Step 2: Go to ‘Payments’ in the menu option and select ‘Add payment method’

Step 3: Select UPI and ‘Link existing payment address’. Then select continue.

Step 4: Enter the payment address of the account you want to link. (Example: 123456789@upi)

Step 5: Accept a charge of INR 1 on your UPI app. This is just an authorisation charge that is required in order to retrieve and verify your account details and is fully refundable.

Step 6: Once the payment is accepted, your newly registered UPI payment method is ready for use. You can now select this as a mode of payment before you request your next trip or set it as a default payment option.
