The Uber Family Profile feature lets you share Uber accounts with family members, taking care of the travel frustrations and helping you and your (extended) family create precious memories. The family profile lets you add family members to your Uber account, who can travel then using your account.
Go to Account and select Settings in the app. Scroll down and tap Family. Tap Add member and select people from your contact list to send them an invitation to join your profile. Please note: you must have the latest version of the app to set up a Family profile.
Uber's terms and conditions do not allow sharing of driver accounts. Another driver using your account poses a serious safety concern. If we learn that a driver did not match the profile displayed by a rider's app, the account will be immediately suspended pending an investigation.
Can 2 phones use the same Uber account? Of course you can. Uber will treat each phone ? number as a client. Two phones using one account is traceable as two users charged into same account.
And what's the maximum number of people in a car? UberX can carry a maximum of 4 people. If you have a larger party, UberXL or Uber SUV can fit up to 6 passengers.
Riders can request an UberPool trip for just themselves or opt to bring a friend (1-2 passengers per request). When you arrive to pick up a rider, you'll see a confirmation screen. On this screen, confirm the rider's name and select whether they're alone or with a second rider.

Riders who usually pay for cash won't be able to make a family profile until they add a card to their account. To add a card to your Family Profile, first, add it to your Wallet on the app. You can have many cards added, but Uber only charges the ones you assign to family members.
Setting up a new Uber account is easy, as long as you have reliable Internet access, a mobile phone number, and a valid method of payment. Once created, you'll be able to use your new Uber account in any location that has Uber services.
You can also order the ride for them yourself. If you choose a pickup location that is different to where you are, the Uber app will ask if the ride is for a family member or friend. Choose their name, detail the destination and ask for a ride for them.
Yes, somebody can ride with you while you are delivering for Uber Eats. Uber and Lyft drivers are required to go solo when picking up passengers, but the rules are different for delivery drivers for Uber Eats, Postmates, and DoorDash.
Is there an additional cost? Yes. When splitting, each participating rider is charged a fee of 25 cents. Your receipt will show the total Split Fare fee for all riders.
What is the difference between Uber and UberX, you might wonder? Actually, there is no difference between UberX and Uber – UberX is simply a basic level of service that Uber offers. Uber offers a variety of service level options. They range from cheaper, economy rides to pricier luxury rides.
Uber's name comes from the German word über, meaning "over, above," which also appears as a prefix, as in Friedrich Nietzsche's Übermensch, translated by George Bernard Shaw as "Superman."
You can request an Uber ride online via m.uber.com, whether that's on: An older phone with internet browsing capabilities. A tablet or laptop. A public desktop computer with internet access.
