Uber and Lyft customers are paying a bit more for rides this week, as both companies have announced they're adding a temporary surcharge to deal with the rise in gas prices nationwide.
Ride-share companies Lyft and Uber announced they will add a temporary surcharge on their rides to help their drivers deal with the rise in gas prices.
In a statement to NPR, Lyft said the company is asking its riders to pay what it's calling a temporary fuel surcharge. All the money from that will go directly to its drivers. "We know that prices have been going up across the economy, so we've done our best to help drivers and couriers without placing too much additional burden on consumers," Uber said in aUber customers will pay a surcharge of either $0.45 or $0.55 on each trip, while Uber Eats deliveries will include a charge of $0.35 or $0.45 on each order, depending on their location. Drivers will receive 100% of that money directly, the company said.
