About Uber

Uber: global platform for mobility, delivery, and logistics

Uber Technologies Inc. operates a digital platform that connects users with drivers, couriers, and merchants to meet transportation, delivery, and mobility needs. The company presents itself as the world's largest mobility platform and structures its activity around several product lines: rides, food delivery, package delivery, freight logistics, and business solutions.

Services for users

The platform allows users to request a ride by entering a pickup and dropoff location, either on the website or in the mobile app. The process includes matching with a nearby driver, verifying identity and vehicle details before getting in, turn-by-turn navigation, and the option to rate and tip at the end of the trip. It also offers the option to book rides up to 90 days in advance through the Reserve feature, and to travel in high-end vehicles with top-rated drivers.

In addition to passenger rides, Uber allows same-day local package delivery, designed for forgotten items, care packages, and other urban shipments. Through Uber Eats, users can order food from local restaurants for delivery or pickup, as well as shop for groceries and everyday items from nearby stores.

Uber One and membership programs

The company offers Uber One, a membership program that provides member pricing and exclusive perks on both rides and deliveries. The platform also includes a City Hub with information on transport options, points of interest, and trip planning for weekend getaways or international destinations.

Business solutions

Uber for Business is aimed at organizations that need to manage and track corporate travel, meal programs, and other services from a single dashboard. The offering includes greater control, deeper insights, and features designed for enterprise users. The company also operates Uber Freight, focused on freight booking solutions, and Uber Health, related to the healthcare sector, as well as Uber Advertising and services for merchants.

Opportunities for drivers and couriers

The platform allows drivers and couriers to earn income with flexible schedules, whether by providing rides, deliveries, or both, using their own or a rented vehicle. For couriers, the system consists of going online, picking up, and dropping off. Uber also offers Uber AI Solutions, a way to turn specialized skills into remote earning opportunities.

Sustainability and safety

Uber has committed to becoming a fully electric, zero-emission platform by 2040, with the goal that 100% of trips take place in zero-emission vehicles, on public transit, or via micromobility. The company states that it will address this challenge by offering more green ride options, helping drivers go electric, prioritizing transparency, and collaborating with NGOs and the private sector to accelerate a clean and just energy transition.

On safety, the company states that technology is at the core of its approach, with partnerships with safety advocates and the development of new technologies and systems to improve the protection of riders and drivers.

Uber Technologies Inc. publishes corporate information through its newsroom, blog, investor relations, and careers section. The company maintains a policy of ethical compliance and transparency, with an integrity program and a reporting helpline.
