Here are the cash out options available:
| Cash out option | Timing* | Weekly Limit | Fees |
| Weekly (default) | Once per week | No limit | No fee |
| Next-day cash out | 1-2 business days | $1700 | No fee |
| Instant cash out | Usually within minutes | $1700 | $1.10 including GST, per transaction |
How cash outs work
- Go to the Wallet section in the Uber Driver app.
- Tap Cash out then select your preferred payment method and cash out option.
- Swipe to confirm your cash out. You’ll be charged a fee if you choose Instant cash out option.
- If you select Instant as your option, your funds should arrive in minutes. Otherwise, if you choose Next-day cash out before 3:00 pm local time, Monday-Friday, the funds should arrive within one business day.
Eligibility requirements
To become eligible for Instant or Next-day cash outs, you must meet the following criteria:
- You’ve made 25+ deliveries on the Uber Driver app.
- You’ve passed Uber’s daily fraud and security screening.
In the case of Instant cash out, you must deposit your earnings into a bank account that is compatible with the New Payments Platform.

FAQ
- Why can’t I cash out?
You may be unable to cash out if:
- You are attempting to cash out more than the weekly maximum
- Your bank is still processing a previous cash out
- Your account has been active for less than two weeks since your first trip and/or you have completed fewer than 25 trips via the Uber Driver app
- Your account is under review and cash outs are temporarily disabled
- In the case of Instant cash out, the service is undergoing weekly scheduled maintenance on weekends (timing varies, will be displayed in the Driver app when you are cashing out) or downtime.
- In the case of Instant cash out, you are not depositing your earnings into a bank account that is compatible with instant cash out - we recommend reaching out to your bank to ensure that the NPP (New Payments Platform) is enabled for your bank account.
- Why am I not eligible?
If you don’t see the option to cash out in the Uber Driver app, it may be because you’re currently ineligible. This could be because:
- Your account has been active for less than two weeks since your first trip
- You have completed fewer than 25 trips via the Uber Driver app
- Your account is currently under review
- What can I cash out?
If you are eligible, you’ll be able to cash out the balance currently in your account (subject to the maximum set out below). Only the earnings that are shown in your account at the time you elect to cash out will be transferred.
Any earnings from the past week that you don’t cash out by the end of the week will be transferred to your bank account as usual through the automatic weekly payout.
- Are there limits on how much I can cash out?
You will always receive your weekly earnings through the default scheduled payout with no limit.

Remember, you are always able to access your earnings through the weekly Scheduled payout or Next-day cash out (previously called Flex Pay) at no cost.
- When will my funds arrive?
If you are using the Instant cash out feature, your funds should arrive in your account in minutes*. Please note that there is a weekly maintenance window on weekends, the exact timing of these windows will vary, and will be displayed in the Driver app when you are cashing out. If you cash out during this time, your payment will be queued for processing and you will receive payment after the maintenance is completed.
If you are using the Next-day cash out feature and you cash out on a business day before 3:00 pm local time, your funds should arrive within one business day.* Processing times may vary depending on your bank. Uber tries to complete payments as quickly as possible but timing is not guaranteed.
*Only available if your financial institution accepts New Payments Platform-enabled payments. Uber does not guarantee the time it will take for any transfer to be completed – transfers could still take a few business days, depending on your bank. You may also experience delays if you request a transfer during the maintenance windows on weekends (timing varies, will be displayed in the Driver app when you are cashing out) or downtime. The accelerated disbursement fee described in this email (“fee”) is collected by Uber B.V on behalf of Rasier Pacific Pty Ltd.
