Uber Rewards is a loyalty program designed to reward frequent riders. Every time you take an Uber trip, you earn points that can be redeemed for Uber Cash, which can then be used towards future rides or even Uber Eats orders. But the perks don’t stop there. Uber has also teamed up with Marriott Bonvoy to offer even more benefits.
By linking your Uber Rewards account to participating loyalty programs, such as Marriott Bonvoy, you can earn points or miles with every ride.
🔹️Earn 3 points per dollar on Uber Premium rides (includes Uber XL, Uber Black, Uber SUV, and Uber Comfort).
🔹️Earn 6 points per dollar when you order food or grocery orders for delivery with Uber Eats while staying at a hotel within the Marriott portfolio.
🔹️Earn 2 points per dollar when you order food or grocery orders for delivery with Uber Eats
If you’re new to Uber or Uber Eats, you can earn 1,000 Marriott Bonvoy points when you download the app sign up and link your accounts. Full details, including qualifying steps, can be found here
💡Pro Tip: Uber allows you to change your payments after the fact as well.
It came in handy because it defaulted and used my Chase Business Ink Cash Card, which was on file when I was in Europe last summer. However, it wasn’t the card that earned the most points back on rideshares and also charges foreign transaction fees. So, I changed all the charges and received a refund not only for the cost but also for the FX fees. After that, I charged it to the card that earns the most points back on rideshares.
