Pro Tips on Dynamic Pricing
Uber is all about connecting you with a reliable ride, no matter when you need it. With our growing demand on XL, Black and the latest addition to the family – uberTaxi, we want to ensure that you get a car even at the busiest hours. Today we’re introducing our dynamic pricing model in Istanbul, which allows us to remain reliable at all times. Increased rates incentivize more driver partners to get on the roads and ensure those who need a ride won’t be left stranded. This means that our rates will float in real time with fluctuations in supply and demand.

An Open Letter to the Mayor on Congestion in London
We are pleased that TfL has listened to Londoners and ditched last year’s ill thought out policies to impose compulsory five minute wait times and a ban on cars being shown in the Uber app. That’s a victory for common sense. But in light of Mr Johnson’s comments this morning about congestion we wanted to explain how Uber can help cut traffic and pollution in London.
Driver Surge Pricing
H. Nazerzadeh, N. Garg
Uber and Lyft ride-hailing marketplaces use dynamic pricing, often called surge, to balance the supply of available drivers with the demand for rides. We study pricing mechanisms for such marketplaces from the perspective of drivers, presenting the theoretical foundation that has informed the design of Uber’s new additive driver surge mechanism. We present a dynamic stochastic model to capture the impact of surge pricing on driver earnings and their strategies to maximize such earnings. […] [PDF]
