How to Split an Uber Ride Fare
Uber introduced fare splitting in 2013, putting an end to the age-old question, “Uh, how are we paying for this?” The feature takes the hassle out of dividing the cost of a ride between passengers. It’s simple to use, too! Here’s how to split an Uber ride.
My Uber App Isn’t Working. Help!
If you’re running into technical issues while using the Uber app, there are few things you can try:
Force quit the Uber app and restart it. Restart your phone and/or its networking settings. Uninstall and reinstall the Uber app. Log out of the app for about two minutes, then log back in. Check for any Android or iOS updates and install them, if necessary.
If you’re having trouble specifically with fare splitting, it’s worth noting the feature might not be available for all Uber options. Also, a fare can’t be split after the trip is ended. Finally, while Uber accepts various payment methods, it says Apple Pay might not work on split fares. If you use Apple Pay and want to divvy up the tab, you may need to use another payment method. You can then switch back to Apple Pay on your next trip.
