How to Change the Payment Method for Past Uber Trips

Looking to change your payment method for an Uber ride you have already taken? Perhaps you accidentally used an old credit card or put a business expense on your personal card. Luckily, Uber allows you to change the payment method for any trip taken in the last 30 days (60 days for business trips). To change your payment method for a past Uber ride simply follow the below steps. 

1. Open your Uber app and tap the menu icon
2. Select "Your Trips" and then the trip you want to update
3. Tap "I had a different issue" and then "Change the payment method for a trip"
4. Follow the prompts to change your payment method 

Please note this currently only works for switching the payment method from one credit card to another. At this time, you cannot switch to or from Apple Pay, Google Pay, Paytm, ZaakPay, American Express reward points, or cash.

If you notice that you need to change the payment method while you are in your Uber, you can also do this by easily, tapping the white panel at the bottom of your Uber app screen, tapping “Switch” next to the price and payment method, and then selecting the correct payment method.

Finally, if you need to add a new payment method or update an old one you can follow the below steps.
  

To Add an Uber Payment Method

1. Open the Uber app and tap "Wallet" from your app menu.
2. Tap "Add Payment Method".
3. Add a payment method by manually entering the card info, scanning a card, or adding an alternative payment type.
