Uber Upfront fares are launching


From Uber Australia:
Upfront fares are launching

Soon, we’ll be introducing upfront fares in Melbourne. Before each trip, riders will see an exact fare in the app, rather than a range.

Data shows that riders request more trips when they have certainty about the price, particularly during busy times where prices may be higher than normal. This leads to more overall requests, which can mean more trips for driver-partners.

Updated Services Agreement

In order to continue accessing the Partner App from 26 March, 2018, and to enable the launch of upfront pricing, you must read and agree to the Upfront Pricing Addendum. This addendum sets out the legal terms that apply to upfront pricing in connection with your Services Agreement.
