Strengthen customer loyalty and employee engagement with Vouchers for Uber Eats
Summary
Uber for Business is introducing Vouchers for Uber Eats, a meal-benefit feature intended to help organisations engage customers, guests, and employees during changing work and event routines. Businesses can create single or bulk voucher campaigns, choose coverage amounts, and apply controls for spending per order, order counts, dates, times, and other parameters. Recipients claim vouchers through an Uber account and redeem them at checkout, while administrators can track claims, meals ordered, total spending, and costs within a set time frame. The post presents uses including feeding teams returning to work, supporting remote events, treating clients, welcoming guests, and recognising employees, with no-contact delivery and access to 400,000 restaurant partners in over 6,000 cities cited as supporting options. It also says average delivery time is under 30 minutes, based on internal Uber data from 2018.
Context
The feature is presented during the COVID-19 pandemic, as businesses adjust to remote work, virtual events, new social-distancing standards, and changing routines. The stated goal is to support relationships with customers, guests, and employees through meal delivery.
Approach / What changed
Organisations create time-bounded voucher campaigns with a group name, dates, internal memo, spending limits, order limits, and scheduling rules. Recipients claim vouchers through an Uber account and use them at checkout, while the organisation monitors voucher claims, meals ordered, total spending, and overall costs.
Takeaways
Vouchers can be created as single or bulk campaigns and configured with limits on spending per order, number of orders, dates, times, and other parameters.
Recipients claim a voucher through an Uber account and redeem it at checkout; organisations pay only for what recipients spend within the set time frame.
Suggested uses include remote-event meals, client lunches, courtesy meals for guests, meals for returning teams, and employee recognition or virtual lunches.
FAQ
How can organisations control voucher spending?
They can choose how much of a meal to cover and set limits on spending per order, the number of orders, dates, times, and other parameters. Usage reporting includes total spending, meals ordered, and vouchers claimed.
How do recipients use an Uber Eats voucher?
Recipients click a link to claim the voucher on an Uber account. They then use it at checkout when ordering a meal.
What kinds of situations does the voucher program support?
The post describes meals for teams returning to work, virtual conferences and webinars, client meetings, business guests, and employees who have gone above and beyond. No-contact delivery and access to restaurant partners in over 6,000 cities are also cited.
