Uber is ending its free loyalty program, Uber Rewards, so it can turn its attention to its subscription-based Uber One membership. In an email sent to customers, Uber explains that users can still earn points until the end of August, and that the last day to redeem points is October 31st. <\/p>\n

\u201cThank you for being part of Uber Rewards,\u201d the email reads. \u201cIt\u2019s been a great ride, but we\u2019ve decided to end Rewards soon, as we shift our focus to our new Uber One membership program.\u201d<\/p>\n

Uber has since posted an update<\/a> about the loyalty program\u2019s imminent shutdown, which will take place on November 1st, 2022. Launched in 2018, Uber Rewards<\/a> is a free program that lets you rack up points for every dollar you spend when hitching a ride or ordering food through Uber and Uber Eats. You can then use these points to earn discounts on future rides or deliveries. The more points you earn, the better perks you get \u2014 earning 7,500 points, for example, unlocks the highest Diamond tier, which comes with benefits like premium customer support, complimentary ride upgrades, better drivers, and three free Uber Eats deliveries.<\/p>\n

But now that\u2019s all going away. Uber isn\u2019t offering a replacement for the program, and there isn\u2019t another way to consistently earn perks and discounts unless you pay for an Uber One subscription, which Uber launched as a replacement for Eats Pass last year<\/a>. A $9.99 \/ month (or $99.99 \/ year) subscription comes with perks like free food deliveries, up to 10 percent off of \u201celigible\u201d Uber Eats orders, and 5 percent off on rides from top-rated drivers. <\/p>\n

Uber\u2019s giving existing Rewards members a free one-month subscription to Uber One, but you\u2019ll still have to pay after that. As a frequent Uber Eats user (who refuses to pay for an Uber One subscription), it\u2019s a bit upsetting to see Uber taking away a free and easily accessible loyalty program, something that\u2019s becoming much harder to find these days.<\/p>\n

Correction August 14th, 8:12AM ET: <\/strong><\/em>A previous version of the article stated that a yearly Uber One membership costs $49.99 \/ year, when it\u2019s actually $99.99 \/ year. We regret the error.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
