Save Money on Ubers

Save Big on Uber rides: The Ultimate Guide to Gift Cards & Avios with Uber 

Looking to save money every time you book an Uber? Here’s a clever trick: combine discounted Uber gift cards with cashback offers and Avios rewards. Whether you’re a regular rider or just want to stretch your travel budget, this step-by-step guide will show you how to make your money go further—every single ride.

 


1. Buy Uber Gift Cards and Earn Cashback

Instead of paying for Uber rides directly, buy Uber gift cards through platforms that offer cashback. Here’s how:

  • TopGiftCards (powered by TopCashback) lets you buy Uber gift cards and earn instant cashback—sometimes up to 5% or more, depending on the offer.

  • Work Discount Schemes like Boostworks or RewardsGateway often have exclusive deals for employees, letting you buy Uber gift cards at a discount or with boosted cashback rates.

How it works:

  1. Visit TopGiftCards or your workplace discount portal.

  2. Purchase an Uber gift card for your chosen amount.

  3. Instantly earn cashback, which is either credited to your cashback account or deducted from the purchase price.

  4. Receive your digital gift card by email—usually within minutes.

Example: Buy a £100 Uber gift card with 5% cashback, and you get £5 back instantly. That’s money saved before you even book your ride!

Once you have your gift card code, adding it to your Uber account is simple:

  1. Open the Uber app.

  2. Go to the Payment section.

  3. Tap Add Payment Method and select Gift Card.

  4. Enter your gift card code.

  5. Your Uber balance is instantly topped up and ready to use for rides or Uber Eats using Uber Money as your payment method


 


Stack Even More Savings with Avios

Did you know you can earn Avios points on every Uber ride in the UK? Here’s how to link your accounts and collect rewards:

  • Link your British Airways Executive Club (or AerClub) account to Uber:

    • Open the Uber app and go to Account > Settings > Rewards.

    • Select British Airways Club or AerClub and tap Link Account.

    • Follow the instructions to connect your accounts.

  • Earn 1 Avios per £1 spent on every Uber ride, train, coach, or boat booked via the Uber app in the UK.

Pro Tip: Every £100 spent on Uber = 100 Avios. These points can be redeemed for flights, upgrades, or other travel perks.

Combine Both for Maximum Value

Here’s how the full hack works in practice:

  1. Buy discounted Uber gift cards via TopGiftCards or your work scheme and earn cashback. Load the gift card balance into your Uber app and book your ride

  2. Link Your Uber Account to Avios

  3. Book your rides as normal using Uber Money — but now, every pound you spend earns you Avios too.

Result: You save money up front, get cashback, and collect Avios for future travel—all on the same ride.

 


Quick Tips for Uber Savings

  • Always check cashback rates before buying gift cards—they can change based on promotions.

  • Some work schemes offer even higher discounts or bonuses—log in and compare.

  • Don’t forget to link your Avios account to Uber for ongoing rewards.

  • You can use your Uber gift card balance for both rides and Uber Eats
