Membership Terms - India

1. GENERAL

These terms and conditions govern your purchase and use of a paid membership service (“Membership”) providing you access to certain benefits on the Uber app (the “Uber Platform”). The Membership is provided to you by Uber India Systems Private Limited (“Uber”, “we” or “our”). These Membership Terms and Conditions - India (“Membership Terms”) govern your purchase and use of your Membership.

Agreement to Membership Terms

By purchasing a Membership, you agree to these Membership Terms, as well as any additional terms specified in the offer you received through the Uber Platform or otherwise offered to you by Uber in writing (your “Offer”). Your Offer includes important details and restrictions, including where and when a Membership may be used, the Payment and Membership Benefits (both terms defined below), the Membership term (“Membership Period”) and payment date (“Payment Date”). Please read your Offer carefully before purchasing a Membership. Your Offer may be varied from time to time in accordance with these Membership Terms.

Scope of these Membership Terms

These Membership Terms govern your use of your Membership and do not govern your use of the Uber Platform. Uber provides the Membership, including the Membership Benefits, in relation to services that you have separately procured from Uber’s affiliates or Third Party Providers in connection with your use of the Uber Platform. Uber does not provide or sell transportation services, Uber Services, or items provided by Third Party Providers (“Items”).

Other terms that apply in connection with your use of the Uber Platform are available at https://www.uber.com/legal and include the Uber General Terms of Use (“Uber Terms”). Other supplemental or third party terms may also apply to your use of the Uber Platform and certain Membership Benefits from time to time.

Undefined, capitalised terms in these Membership Terms will have the meaning set forth in the Uber Terms.

For clarity: transportation services will be provided to you by Third Party Providers pursuant to the Uber Terms; Uber Services will be provided to you by Uber pursuant to the Uber Terms; and Items will be sold to you by Third Party Providers pursuant to the Uber Terms.

2. YOUR MEMBERSHIP

Membership Benefits

Your Membership entitles you to certain benefits for the duration of your Membership (“ Membership Benefits”). The details for your Membership Benefits (and any applicable limitations) will be set out in: (a) your Offer, as stated to you when you sign up for your Membership or amended in accordance with Section 4 of these Membership Terms; or (b) an email or the Uber Platform, when they are temporary or additional benefits. Uber may choose to offer more than one type of Membership. Membership Benefits may differ based on the type of Membership selected by you in your Offer.

Membership Benefits may include savings, discounts and other benefits in relation to services purchased through the Uber Platform in India, as well as other benefits offered by third parties to you in connection with your Membership from time to time. Such third party benefits may be limited, are subject to terms and conditions of such third party and may be cancelled at Uber’s sole discretion. You may also receive additional savings, discounts or other benefits that are personalised for you, from time to time.

Duration of Membership Benefits

The duration of your entitlement to the Membership Benefits will be specified in your Offer and will align with your Membership Period. Your entitlement to the Membership Benefits will automatically end at the end of your Membership Period in accordance with Section 3, unless you cancel your Membership in accordance with Section 7. Uber may cancel, suspend or otherwise restrict your entitlement to the Membership Benefits in accordance with Section 7.

Membership Limitations

Membership Benefits: (a) do not cover optional gratuities; (b) are subject to Third Party Provider’s acceptance of requests for transport services in your geographic area; and (c) may not be useable with all services on the Uber Platform.

Non-transferable: The Membership granted under these Terms is personal to you and may not be shared, transferred, sold, or otherwise provided to any other individual, including but not limited to family members, friends, or colleagues. Uber reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to cancel your Membership on account of a violation hereunder.

Other limitations to Membership Benefits will be clearly described in your Offer, as stated to you when you sign up for a Membership, when the Membership Benefits are changed under Section 4, or when an additional or temporary benefit is notified to you by email or in the Uber Platform.

​​Geographic Scope of Promotions

Membership Benefits are limited to the country in which you purchase your Membership. If you travel outside of that country, your Membership Benefits will not apply (unless otherwise stated).

Combining Benefits

Notwithstanding the terms and conditions of other benefits offered in connection with your Membership, Uber may permit Membership Benefits to be combined with other benefits as long as such benefits do not conflict or overlap with Membership Benefits (“Other Benefits”). You should refer to the terms and conditions that apply to such Other Benefits. To the extent Uber has permitted Membership Benefits to combine with Other Benefits: (a) Other Benefits may be applied after your Membership Benefits have been applied; and (b) you can view: additional savings on transportation services prior to confirming a request to book a trip.

Savings or discounts received through Membership Benefits may also be itemised in your trip receipts respectively for your individual purchases placed through the Uber Platform.

Queued Offers

If you’re currently using an offer that applies to your Uber One membership, your next queued offer (if available) will start when your current offer ends, as long as your membership has not been terminated or canceled. For offers tied to your payment type, that payment type must still be valid and on your account when the related offer starts.

3. CHARGES

Payments

When you purchase a Membership, you will be entitled to the Benefits for the Membership Period, and such Benefits will end at the end of your respective Membership Period. The applicable Payment is in Indian Rupees and inclusive of applicable taxes. Your Membership Period commences on Your Payment Date and expires at the same time on the same date of the following month for the 1 month plan, at the same time on the 90th day of your Membership Period for the 3 month plan and at the same time on the same date of the following year for the 12 month plan.

Uber Vouchers and Gift Cards are not accepted as payment methods for your Membership.

Neither Uber nor its affiliates are responsible for any fees charged by the provider of your payment method including, but not limited to, overdraft fees, insufficient funds fees, interest charges, foreign exchange fees, cross border fees, or other fees levied by the provider of your payment method (each a “Payment Provider Fee”).

Free trial offers

Uber, or third parties on behalf of Uber, may offer you a free trial or other promotional entitlement to a Membership. Such trial or promotional entitlement is subject to: (a) these Membership Terms except as otherwise stated in the Offer; and (b) any additional terms advised to you by Uber or a third party in connection with a free trial. Free trial eligibility is determined by Uber and Uber may limit such eligibility or duration to prevent free trial abuse. Certain limitations may be advised to you with respect to combining a free trial of the Membership with any other offers.

Membership fees paid using physical cash will be processed only when you complete your next ride with Uber, and such payment must be made within 14 days of the Membership purchase. Your Membership status will remain in a "pending" state until the fee is paid directly to the driver partner at the conclusion of your first trip after purchasing the Membership. Your Membership will commence on the date of cash payment, and Membership benefits will apply to all future rides and purchases. Cash payments are exclusively available for monthly Membership plans.

If you do not cancel the Membership prior to the end of the trip, the Membership fee will be added to the total trip fare, and the fee must be paid in physical cash only. If your Membership is in a pending payment state via physical cash, the UPI QR code will be disabled, and you will automatically be required to pay for both your ride and Membership fee in physical cash. In the event you cancel your Membership during a trip, you will not be able to switch back to UPI for payment until your next trip.

If, while your Membership is in a pending payment state via physical cash, you place a ride using a payment method other than physical cash, your Membership will be automatically canceled at the conclusion of that ride.

4. CHANGES TO YOUR MEMBERSHIP

Changes to Membership Terms and Membership Benefits

Uber may amend these Membership Terms or the Membership Benefits from time to time. Uber will provide you with 7 days’ written notice in the event of a material change to these Membership Terms or the Membership Benefits that detrimentally affects your rights under these Membership Terms. Amendments will be effective upon posting of such updated Membership Terms at this location, or such date specified in the written notice (as the case may be). Your continued use of your Membership after such posting or the expiry of the notice period (whichever is later), constitutes your consent to be bound by the amended Membership Terms or Membership Benefits (as applicable).

5. BENEFITS FOR TEENS

In Uber’s sole discretion, Uber may allow a guardian with a Membership to have their Membership Benefits extended to Teens linked to their accounts. The extension of Membership Benefits to Teens is subject to the Teen Account Terms of Use (Parent or Guardian) and Teen Account Terms of Use (Teen). The Teen will receive the same benefits as the guardian on rides, including Uber One credits back on trips, which can be used by the Teen towards future rides. Teens will not have the ability to manage their guardian’s membership in any way, including but not limited to updating payment methods, updating the Membership plan type, or canceling the plan. Teens utilizing their guardian’s benefits will remain subject to these Membership Terms as applicable.

Teens are under no circumstance allowed to have their own Uber One membership, and may only access benefits they receive through their guardian with a Membership. Without notice and in its sole discretion, Uber may exclude teens from certain promotional offers, including those offered by third-party partners.

6. FAMILY SHARING

Family sharing is available to eligible paying account holders (the “Primary Member”) with a paid Membership and may not be available in all locations. Some plan types are ineligible, including but not limited to, preview, student plan, free or extended trials, partner offers, and Uber for Business memberships. A Primary Member may invite an adult under family sharing in account settings (if eligible and applicable, the “Secondary Member”). Both accounts must be in the same country where the Membership was purchased by the Primary Member.

The Secondary Member may receive Membership Benefits (as stated here: https://www.uber.com/in/en/uber-one/) shared by the Primary Member when available. Partner perks, third-party benefits, limited-time or promotional offers, and certain merchant promotions are only available to the Primary Member, unless Uber states otherwise. Uber may, at its discretion, exclude a Secondary Member from promotional offers or product experiments, and benefit eligibility may differ or change at any time.

A Primary Member may link one (1) Secondary Member at a time and may change the selected Secondary Member no more than once per calendar year. The Secondary Member will lose any shared benefits immediately upon being removed by the Primary Member. Uber may, but is not required to, reset this annual limit if the Primary Member’s Membership lapses and is later reactivated. Access to shared benefits follows the Primary Member’s status. If the Primary Member’s Membership is paused, canceled, suspended, or terminated, Secondary Members lose access at the same time without separate notice or refund. Family sharing is intended for members of the same household, and Uber may remove or restrict access if misuse, fraud, or ineligibility is detected as determined by Uber in its sole discretion.

The extension of Membership Benefits to the Secondary Member is subject to the Uber Terms. Uber may send service or transactional messages to both the Primary Member and Secondary Member about family sharing.

7. UBER’S RIGHTS TO CANCEL, SUSPEND OR RESTRICT YOUR MEMBERSHIP

(a) Uber may restrict you from accessing or using your Membership, in whole or in part, immediately, without notice, in circumstances where Uber reasonably suspects that:

(i) you have, or are likely to, breach these Membership Terms, the Uber Terms, the Community Guidelines, and/or any applicable law;

(ii) you have engaged in fraudulent activity in relation to, or otherwise misused, your Membership.

(b) Uber may terminate these Membership Terms with respect to you, cancel your Membership, or generally cease offering or deny access to the Membership (in whole or in part):

(i) immediately, where Uber reasonably suspects that: (A) you have, or are likely to, breach these Membership Terms, the Uber Terms, the Community Guidelines, and/or any applicable law; (B) you have engaged in fraudulent activity in relation to, or otherwise misused, your Membership; and/or (C) the Uber Terms are terminated with respect to you; or

(ii) on 30 days’ written notice to you where Uber, acting reasonably, terminates these Membership Terms for any legitimate business, legal or regulatory reason.

If Uber terminates these Membership Terms or generally ceases to offer the Membership pursuant to Section 7(b)(ii), Uber or an affiliate of Uber will process a pro-rated refund to you based on charges already applied for the current Membership Period. To the extent feasible, Uber shall attempt to process the refund to the original payment source. For clarity, subject to the Indian Consumer Law, Uber and its affiliates will not process any refund if these Membership Terms are terminated pursuant to Section 7(b)(i).

(c) Without limiting any other termination rights, Uber may terminate your Membership effective at the end of your then current Membership Period by providing you notice of such termination. If that happens, you will have access to your Membership Benefits until the end of your then-current Membership Period.

8. CANCELLING YOUR MEMBERSHIP

Cancellations are only permitted on the 12 month plan. In the event you wish to cancel your Membership, you can do so by contacting customer support. Subject to your rights under consumer laws, your Payment for the monthly plan and 3 month plan will not be refundable.

Nothing in these Membership Terms or this section is intended to limit your rights as a consumer, including your entitlement to a refund or other applicable remedies, under the Indian Consumer Law.
