Invite Friends for Uber Credits

When you invite your friends to join Uber, you'll receive free ride credit after they complete their first ride. You can send your invite codes from the Uber app or the Uber website. You can change your code from the Uber website as well.

Steps

Using the App

  1. Tap the Uber app on your device.
  2. Tap the Menu button (☰). You'll see this in the upper-left corner.
  3. Tap "Free Rides."
  4. Tap the "Send Invites" button.
    • You can also tap "Copy" next to your promo code to paste it anywhere you'd like, such as on your blog or in a custom email.
  5. Tap the app that you want to send invites through. You'll be sending an invite message and link that includes your promo code.
  6. Send the invite message to a contact. Once you've selected the app, you'll be able to select who you want to send the invite to.
  7. Have your friend sign up with the link. They'll need to create a valid account.
  8. Wait for your friend to take their first ride. As soon as your friend takes their first ride, you'll receive a ride credit worth up to a certain amount off your ride. This credit is usually applied automatically on your next ride. The exact amount varies depending on your country.
