What to know before you visit Denver
If you're visiting from another country, make sure you have a valid payment option on your account before starting your ride request.
You can pay in the app with most major credit cards and debit cards. Other payment methods, including prepaid cards and Apple Pay, are also accepted.
While we recommend digital payments, you may pay your driver in cash by selecting the cash option in the app. However, during certain hours, cash payments are not available.
Avoid scams by only accepting rides that you requested and by checking vehicle information in the app before entering any car. Riders can enable PIN verification for additional protection. Your driver will ask for the PIN shown in the app to ensure you've found the correct vehicle.
Women riders are able to request Women Drivers when requesting a ride. Learn more about Women Preferences.
