The new Uber Visa Debit Card from GoBank is a helpful new offering that is geared specifically for Uber drivers that offers cashback rewards for almost any expense associated with the service. The card will not be exclusive to Uber drivers, as Uber eats drivers and other delivery service drivers may take advantage of it, and currently offers rewards for gas fill-ups and car maintenance. The Uber Visa Debit Card currently offers 3% cashback at Exxon and Mobil gas stations, 1.5% at other stations, and discounts at Jiffy Lube and Advance Auto Parts. Other perks include cashback at Walmart and Sprint, roadside assistance from Urgent.ly and even the ability to be paid out multiple times a day for driving through the app.
Unlike the similar card for riders, the Uber Visa Debit Card is designed to protect and help drivers who often receive little aid. Drivers looking to get their hands on a card will have to sign up with GoBank, but the card does not come with a minimum balance, overdraft fees or any setup, monthly or annual fees.
