*This is a promotional offer and is not a promise or guarantee of future earnings. This offer is only available to new drivers who (i) receive this offer directly from Uber and see it in the guarantee tracker of the Uber driver app; (ii) are cleared to drive with Uber; and (iii) complete the number of trips displayed in the guarantee tracker in the city where they signed up to drive, within 90 days of signing up.
Offer terms such as number of trips and reward amount may vary by location. The guarantee offer that you see in-app replaces any guarantee amounts Uber previously offered you. Check your in-app guarantee tracker to see the current guarantee offer for your city. Must have the latest version of the driver app to see the guarantee tracker.
Earnings from your fares (after services fees and certain charges are deducted, such as city or local government charges) are included toward your guaranteed amount; any tips and promotions you make are on top of that amount. If you complete the required number of trips within 90 days of signup and you earn less than the guaranteed amount, then you’ll receive the difference.
For example, if your guaranteed amount was $1000 and you earn $800 in fares, an additional $100 in tips, and an additional $50 in promotions (for a total of $950), you would receive an additional $200 because your fares didn’t meet the guaranteed amount.
Any payment due will be added to your account after you complete the required trips. Each completed pickup and dropoff on Uber Pool will count as one trip towards your minimum trip requirement. Each required trip must be with a unique rider. Cancelled trips do not count. This offer is only valid for those who meet the eligibility requirements associated with this offer. Uber reserves the right to withhold or deduct payments that it determines or believes were in error, fraudulent, illegal or in violation of the driver terms or these terms. Offer and terms are subject to change.
¹Uber is not responsible for the products or services offered by other companies, or for the terms and conditions (including financial terms) under which those products and services are offered.
