Uber for Teens Service

Uber has launched a pilot program for its Uber for Teens service in India, enabling parents to create accounts for their teenagers and monitor their trips. The service is currently available in Bengaluru, Delhi NCR, and Mumbai, with plans to expand to 35 cities in the coming weeks.

The Uber for Teens service allows parents to set up accounts for their teenagers between the ages of 13 and 17, enabling them to request trips directly using their own devices. The service also includes features like live trip tracking and opt-in audio recording, providing an added layer of safety and security for teenagers.

Guardians can book rides for teenagers and set monthly trip limits to restrict the number of trips. Uber requires guardians in India to add a credit or debit card to their account to invite a teenager to their family profile. Once added, guardians and teens can book rides using any payment method, including cash.

Uber has also introduced separate profiles for teenagers in some markets, allowing them to pay using their own payment methods and cash. The company has been adding several features to cater to Indians' changing transportation needs, including concurrent rides, flexible pricing, and prepaid item pickups.
