Doha, Help Us Test Cash Payments

May 24, 2016 / Doha

Doha, you asked and we listened. Choice is a beautiful thing and soon many of you will be able to pay for Uber rides using cash, credit or debit card. That’s right – all the convenience of Uber, with even more payment options to cover your rides. Simply choose the ‘cash’ option in the payments menu, take a ride and pay your driver directly in cash at the end of the trip.

This is an experiment and one of the few places in the world where cash payment is available across the 400+ cities where Uber is present. We have worked hard to create a seamless option that is truly Uber, and your feedback is crucial to making it a success.

CASH OPTION IS ONLY AVAILABLE TO A LIMITED NUMBER OF RIDERS DURING THE PILOT

If you do not see the cash option, don’t worry. We will roll out this feature gradually as we continue testing it.

Your feedback is essential to helping us create a cash option that works best for you, so take rides, invite your friends to ride,and share your feedback with us at support@uber.com.

How it works

Open the Uber app and set your pick-up location
Select ‘CASH’ as your payment
Request your ride
Before you get out, pay the amount shown directly to the driver

#ProTips

Uber on,

Team Uber Qatar
