Ride-hailing platform Uber is closing down its loyalty programme, Uber Rewards, with customers being urged to join the Uber One subscription to get common Uber and Uber Eats reductions.

Launched in 2018, Uber Rewards is a free programme that permits you to rack factors for each greenback you spend when hitching a experience or ordering meals by way of Uber and Uber Eats, stories The Verge.

You can then use these factors to earn reductions on future rides or deliveries. The extra factors you earn, the higher perks you get — incomes 7,500 factors.

However, Uber shouldn’t be providing a substitute for the programme, and there’s no one other technique to persistently earn perks and reductions except you pay for an Uber One subscription, which Uber launched as a substitute for Eats Pass final yr.

A $9.99/month (or $49.99/yr) subscription comes with perks like free meals deliveries, as much as 10 per cent off of “eligible” Uber Eats orders, and 5 per cent off on rides from top-rated drivers.
