Barely six months since their last price hike, Uber has today increased its fares on Uber X yet again and this doesn’t affect Uberboda. Just like in their previous statement for the reason of the Uber X price hike in Uganda, Uber says that they still remain committed to providing a reliable earning opportunity for driver-partners, as well as a reliable and affordable service for their clients.
With this in mind, with effect from 17 June 2020 fares are increasing on Uber X as follows;
| Old | New | |
|---|---|---|
| Base fare | 1,250 | 1,500 |
| Per kilometer fare | 850 | 900 |
| Per-minute fare | 130 | 140 |
According to Uber Uganda in a statement about the price hike on Uber X;
While we have always tried to keep prices as low as possible, we need to be aware of the increased costs for driver-partners. The new fare structure means that we can invest even further in Uber’s existing technology – with improvements that we’ve recently introduced to help keep you safer on the road.
