Uber has launched Gift Cards that are redeemable across Uber and Uber Eats. They will be available to buy via Paytm, Woohoo and other online platforms in a number of different denominations starting at Rs. 500.
In a press release, the company said that the new products will enable users to gift their family and friends a ride or a meal with the tap of a button. Uber Gift Cards will also make for innovative corporate gifting options, the company claimed.
