To receive the full statement credit (up to $96 for the eligible annual membership purchase made between 30/4/26 and 30/10/26), your Uber Cash balance must be switched off so that the membership fee is charged directly to your eligible Gold Card.

Uber One is subject to the Uber One Membership Terms and Conditions; see the Uber or Uber Eats app or website for more details.

In some cases, it may take up to 90 days after the offer end date for the statement credit(s) to be applied. Please call the number on the back of your Card if the credit(s) haven’t been applied to your account 30 days after you made the qualifying purchase.
