These tips can help you find riders

See where more riders are requesting. The in-app map changes color as demand increases in specific areas.

Promotions can help you hit your goals faster. Just open your app, tap Earnings, then tap Promotions to find what’s available to you, anytime.

Hungry for more trips? If it’s a time of the day when ride requests are slow, you may have the option to accept food delivery requests, too. Sign up to be a courier today.

Access your available earnings up to 5 times a day. It’s free with the Uber Visa Debit Card or just 50 cents per transfer to your personal debit card.

Keep your car running smoothly at a lower cost with discounts at Autozone, Jiffy Lube, and other shops.

You qualify for discounts from every major cell phone carrier.

To compensate you for your patience, you’ll earn more per minute if you have to wait longer than 2 minutes when picking up a rider.

When riders cancel, you’ll earn the greater of the standard cancellation fee or standard time and distance rates for travel toward the pickup location.

You’ll earn standard time and distance rates after a period of time on your way to the longest pickups in your area. You’ll earn this fee in addition to your standard trip fare.

Multiple pickups can make POOL trips more challenging. You’ll earn an extra flat fare every time an additional pickup stop is added to your trip. So each extra pickup means more money in your pocket.
