Uber, Flutterwave launch Uber Cash Wallet in Kenya & Nigeria

Uber and online payments firm Flutterwave are introducing Uber Cash to further promote cashless transactions across all Uber’s products in Kenya and Nigeria.

Uber Cash riders in the two countries can now prepay for their upcoming trips with the Uber Cash wallet, creating a stress-free way to travel, further adding to the convenience this payment method offers.

Digital payments help ensure the well-being of both the rider and driver by limiting unnecessary physical contact. Uber also allows existing payment options including cash (for rides only), debit card and gift cards, this new feature offers a seamless way to make and further control payment on Uber.

This payment method creates an Uber Wallet that can be preloaded with any amount, to be used on upcoming trips. The account can be topped-up via the user’s Ride account and used as and when needed on Uber, allowing the user to control the amount spent on the specific app, further helping them control their budget.

Top-ups are available and work similarly to that of an airtime increases. In Nigeria, riders are able to top-up their balance via a debit/ credit card (Verve), USSD, a bank transfer or Barter for payment of use. There is no need to use a physical card or cash. Once the account has been loaded, all credit is non-expiry meaning that locals can use it whenever they see fit.

Uber Cash limits potential cash deficits should either the driver, courier or user not have enough or exact change, as like a debit transaction, the exact amount will be taken. However, if there is some cash lying around that one wants to use, riders are able to pay for a trip with this and ask the driver to load change directly into their Uber Cash account.
