Earnings supplement for commercial drivers

Earn more on economy trips like UberX, XL, and Uber Comfort


Uber is introducing a new supplement for every mile you drive with a passenger in the car on economy trips (like UberX, UberXL, Comfort and more) for commercial drivers¹. Effective July 16th, the new supplement for the District of Columbia is $0.13. To qualify, you must maintain your own commercial permit, registration, and insurance and other required documents.

There is no limit to how many trips or miles can qualify. The “Commercial Supplement” will be based on estimated miles for the trip and will be included on your Offer Card², trip receipt, and Weekly Statement.

Maximize your earnings³ and time on the road by picking up economy trips today!

¹ Eligible trips include those completed by commercial drivers with their commercial auto insurance and other required documents.

²Offer and terms are subject to change. 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.

³Changes to the duration of a trip may cause fares to be updated based on the actual time and distance, which may affect your supplement amount.

The commercial supplement is an additional earnings opportunity for drivers with commercial permits. It is not a reimbursement for the costs associated with permits, insurance, or any other similar expenses and will not equal those costs. The Commercial Supplement applies to UberX and UberX Share, UberX Priority, UberXL, Comfort, Comfort Electric, Uber Green, and Uber Pet. This supplement does not apply to Black or Black SUV trips.

The commercial supplement is not available to certain fleet companies. If you drive with a fleet company, you should consult with the fleet owner about your eligibility for the commercial supplement.

Commercial supplement eligibility may vary by market and driver licensing jurisdiction. Check local resources to learn more.
