Payment information
When creating an account, you’ll be prompted to add your credit or debit card information in the app. Other payment methods may be available and they are listed in the 'Easy ways to pay' section above. If you are paying by card, you will be charged after the ride has completed.
There are a few instances where you might see a pre-authorization charge on your account. Any time a new credit card is added to the app, a $1 hold is placed on the card to ensure it is valid and has at least $1.
Additionally, when a ride is booked, a hold will be placed on the payment method for the entire amount of the initial ride if it is expected to be more than $15 to ensure the charge goes through at the end of the ride. However, a hold is not a charge. This charge will remain pending and should disappear from your account or statement within 3-5 business days depending on the policies of the rider's bank/financial institution.
