How to pay for Uber

Uber does not accept prepaid cards, and our card is a debit card, so it works. It is a Visa Business card in dollars. Issuing costs $10, you top up with crypto, and a transfer to the card is 7.5%.

4 steps Updated October 20, 2026

What you need

  1. Top up the card

    Transfer the cost of your rides with some extra: when you order, Uber holds the trip price. The card is also charged $0.25 per payment and 2.5% if the price is not in dollars.

Common questions

Uber charged me twice

That is a hold, not a second charge. Uber holds the price when you order and when the route changes, and the bot reports holds too. The extra hold changes to “Canceled”, and the money is back on the card.
