Uber and Amazon have announced the second phase of their association to provide Amazon Prime members with additional benefits on all modes of transport on Uber.
Effective May 2023, Prime members can continue to enjoy 5 per cent cashback on unlimited rides when using Amazon Pay as their payment mode. Out of the 5 per cent, they will receive 4 per cent as Uber credit and 1 per cent as Amazon Pay cashback, which can be availed to save more on future rides with Uber and fulfill shopping needs on Amazon.in.
Prime members can effortlessly avail this benefit by linking their Amazon Pay wallet to Uber. In 2022, Uber and Amazon collaborated to provide access to UberPremier at the price of UberGo, with up to 3 upgrades/ month to Prime members, along with 20 per cent discount or up to Rs 60 valid for up to 3 trips per month, on Uber Auto, Moto, Rentals, and Intercity.
