Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is happening now! Follow us as Greg, Nick, and Stephen compete to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines before November 23rd. Who will complete the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?
There are a couple of targeted offers out to save 50% on Uber – one promotion direct from Uber and another in the form of an eGift card from Groupon.
Also note that a reader points out that there is an Ibotta promotion for $1 back on Uber rides that may stack with these, though YMMV as we have not confirmed this. (Thanks, ktenorman!)
Direct Uber Promotion
The Deal
- 50% off on up to 10 rides by Sunday, June 25th
- Targeted
Key Terms

Quick Thoughts
USCreditCardGuide reports receiving a targeted promotion for 50% off up to 10 rides between now and Sunday, June 25th, 2017. While this promotion was clearly targeted by Uber, they report that this is the second time in two weeks that they have received this type of promotion. Notable this week was that the only geographical restriction was that the offer was valid in the United States. It looks to be good in any city.
The subject line of the email is “You’ve got 50% off rides”. Read more about this promotion at USCreditCardGuide and keep your eye on your email to see if you have the offer.
Groupon
The Deal
- $10 for $20 Uber eGift Card
- Targeted, invite-only promotion
- Direct link to the deal
Key Terms
- 1 per person
- Value never expires
- Deal ends today
Quick Thoughts
This is a targeted promotion, but my wife and I received it in each of our Groupon accounts. The deal started yesterday and has continued into today. While not everyone will be targeted, it’s worth it to log in and check if you were targeted and missed the email.

It’s been 4 weeks for me of 50% off rides from uber. I’m not sure if anyone else is getting these. If they aren’t targeting anyone else then why me? I ride maybe 3-5 times a weeks and am a 5 star rider.
Are you still getting the promo? Did it expire?
I had it for 6 weeks and now I no longer have the promotion.
I take a minimum of 4-5 Uber’s a week and have never received this promo. Is it because I’m using my Amex?
I’ve had 50% off, 25% and 50% for 3 weeks straight now. I take 5-6 rides in a week on an average. Double dip with MPX and Ibotta.
Nick – there’s also a targeted Ibotta promotion right now for $1 cash back on each Uber ride. Might be able to be stacked with these.
Thanks for pointing that out! I added it to the post.
I have 40% off 10 rides.
Not bad, either! Sure beats paying full price :-).
Last week I received the 50% off offer and made no rides, this week I received another 25% off offer. At this point I’m taking about 1 ride per month using the $15 Amex Platinum credit.
