Uber introduces a credit card – TechCrunch

The no-fee card offers a bonus of $100 after spending $500 on purchases within the first 90 days and has other perks like 4% back on restaurants, takeout, and bar purchases; 3% back on airfare, Hotels, and Airbnb or other short-stay rentals; 2% back on online purchases; and 1% back on everything else.
The new card also gives users a $50 credit for online subscriptions (after spending $5,000 on the card per-year), phone insurance of up to $600 if someone uses the card to pay their monthly phone bill; and exclusive invites to events for card members.
To unpack that a bit, in exchange for fronting the cash and getting information about the $5,000+ worth of stuff you’ve bought, Uber will give hook you up with $50. And the company’s card will also insure your phone once it has information on your carrier and what you’re spending money on through that carrier.

What are Passes?
To give our riders even more affordable everyday ride options, we're beta testing discounted passes for uberPOOL and uberX rides. To unlock pass fares, buy a package of rides for an upfront fee. You'll get reliable rides day and night during for the duration of your pass.

What Passes are currently available?
Choose the Pass that best fits the way you like to ride. Check the Ride Pass section in the main menu of the app for details. Passes are valid for a specific number of days or weeks after purchase.

Are Passes available everywhere?
Currently, Passes are only available in certain cities. Your Pass is only valid in Delhi NCR on trips within the Delhi NCR Pass Zone.

You can track how many rides you’ve used on your Pass, how many rides you have left, and how many more days you have to use your rides in the app. Navigate to the Ride Pass section in the main menu.

How is my fare calculated?
The original fare is calculated based on the length of your trip, plus any surcharges and adjustments. We apply your Pass fare or discount to this original fare. If the original fare is ever lower before your Pass fare or discount, don’t worry! We’ll charge you the lesser of the two amounts.

Will Passes cover rides of any price?
You can apply a Pass to any ride in the Pass Zone during valid days and times. If your Pass includes a maximum ride value or maximum discount and the total cost of your ride exceeds this maximum, you’ll be charged the amount above the maximum in addition to the discounted Pass fare.
