Manage subsidized transportation and meal programs with Vouchers

Vouchers enables universities and colleges to fully or partially cover the costs of rides and meals with Uber—offering a flexible solution to support a wide range of campus needs.

Customize your vouchers for rides and meals

Set subsidies and co-payments

Set a custom voucher amount, credit, or discount to offer students, faculty, or staff—covering either the full cost or a portion of a ride or meal.

Choose geography and times of day

Define the exact areas where your voucher applies, and set specific times when your transportation and/or meal delivery program is available.

Limit overall usage

Customize each voucher by specifying the number of rides allowed or by setting limits on meal credits, ensuring program control and budget alignment.

Pay-per-performance

Uber’s pay-per-performance model ensures your institution only pays for services actually used—whether it's rides taken or meals delivered.

Getting started is easy

Create your transportation or meal delivery program in minutes, whether for a handful of students or thousands.

Step 4: Distribute vouchers

Send vouchers by email, text, CSV upload, or URL—all enabled from your dashboard.
