Add Option To Tip On Debit/credit Cards After Trip

Submitted 6 years ago

I Am Not Sure Why Uber Has Not Caught Up With Lyft. Not Many People Carry Cash Much These Days And I Have About 85% Of My Riders Tell Me They Would Love To Tip Me But They Don't Have Any Cash. Uber Takes A Huge Chunk Of A Riders Fare And The Driver Usually Doesn't Get Enough To Cover Expenses Or Their Time. Even Taxi Drivers Rely On Tips To Get By And So Do Drivers For Lyft. Uber Is Great For The Riders Because Their Fares Are The Cheapest I Have Ever Seen And Continue To Drop. If Uber Doesnt Want To Add The Ability For A Rider To Show Their Gratitude For A Great Driver And Trip Through A Tip That Can Be Added On The App They Should At Least Partner With A Company That Has Mobile Card Readers So That Drivers Can Collect The Tips They Deserve And Depend On. Also It Would Be Nice If Drivers Didnt Have To Put On Their Signs In The Car "tips Are Not Required" Just Something Like Tips Are Not Included In Your Fare And Are Greatly Appreciated" And Allow The Driver To Accept All Forms Of Tips Either Cash Or Via A Card Reader Program Or Through An Update To The Uber Rider App Itself Would Be Sufficient If A Rider Feels The Driver Deserves A Tip. Uber Is Making It Seem Like A Tip And Gratuity Is Already Added In The Fare And Have No Idea How Much Of The Fare That Uber Takes And How Much The Driver Is Actually Making.
