A sneak peek at the new and improved rewards headed your way.


We asked drivers what would make Uber Pro better. The result? A more rewarding program built on your feedback.

The reimagined Uber Pro gives you more earnings opportunities and a better day-to-day experience. Uber Pro works like this: If you accept trips, cancel less, get riders where they need to go safely and earn points, then you can reach higher tiers and unlock better rewards.

Starting the week of September 1, the upgraded Uber Pro will begin rolling out in a city near you.

Great service earns you more

Gold, Platinum, and Diamond drivers will get more earnings opportunities

  • 5-10% Pro Perk*: Platinum and Diamond drivers earn 5-10% more for UberX and other non-premium ride types compared to Blue drivers.
  • Access to Comfort & Reserve trips: Gold+ drivers get access to Comfort and Reserve trip requests, which means more opportunities for higher earnings (subject to Premium vehicle criteria).
  • Driver Incentives: Gold+ drivers get access to more incentives than drivers with Blue status.Improved day-to-day experience

New rewards help you save time and easily plan your day

  • Extra Destination Mode: Use Destination Mode up to 3 times daily, and declines or cancellations will not end your session. Now you can get more trips that move you closer to where you need to be—more often.
  • Easier tracking with Uber Pro Hub: A redesigned, easy-to-use hub that helps you track your progress, explore rewards, and see how close you are to reaching your next tier.
