4. Default payment method
Uber Cash balance (if any) will automatically be applied to your transactions followed by any Uber Gift Card balance. If you wish to apply your saved Payment Method for a transaction (rather than Uber Cash or Uber Gift Card balance) you can do so, by going to the Uber app or the UberEats app. Once you have completed your product selection, switch off Uber Cash and Gift Cards by clicking on toggle off, then proceed to the Payment Options screen, you can now select your preferred Payment Method.
