How to Pay with Cash on Uber Eats

A user-friendly guide to paying Uber Eats with cash in supported areas

Do you want to pay for your Uber Eats delivery with paper cash? Unfortunately, Uber Eats only accepts cash in some locations outside of the United States. If you qualify for this feature, you'll see the "Cash" option in your payment methods. If you don't have the Cash feature, you can always use PayPal or add Uber Cash as a payment method. This wikiHow will show you how to pay for an Uber Eats order with cash in supported locations using your iPhone or Android device.

[Edit]Things You Should Know

• If you qualify, start an Uber Eats order. Tap "View Cart", then tap your current payment method. Select "Cash".
• To use PayPal, go to "Account" → "Wallet" → "Add Payment Method" → "PayPal".
• To add Uber Cash, go to "Account" → "Wallet" → "Add Funds" → "One-time Purchase".

[Edit]Paying with Cash

1. Open Uber Eats on your phone or tablet. This looks like the Uber Eats logo with a green background.
   
   • You'll be able to use cash to pay for Uber Eats in: Brazil, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Peru, and South Africa.^[1]
     • Uber Eats may roll out this feature in other locations. To check if your location is available, follow the steps below.
   • If you haven't logged in already, you'll be prompted to either register or log in with your Uber account.
2. Tap a restaurant you want to order from. When you open the app, you'll be presented with thumbnails of the restaurants near you that offer Uber Eats delivery. You can browse the separate areas here, such as "$0 Delivery Fee" or "Special Offers."
   
   • You can change the delivery address if it's different than what is displayed by tapping the arrow next to the address at the top of the screen.
   • You can also opt for Pickup by tapping Pickup at the top of the screen. If you choose this, you will not accrue delivery fees, but you'll still be charged a service fee by Uber Eats.
3. Add food to your order. Once you select a restaurant, you'll see their menu. You can browse through their food selections (for example Chicken or Breakfast), then tap a menu item (for example Chicken and Bacon Ranch Melt 6).
   
   • After you tap a menu item, you might have to make a few more choices (such as toppings or sides) before you can tap the plus icon (+) at the bottom of the page to add the item to your cart.
   • You can only have items from one restaurant in your cart at a time. For example, you cannot have an order from Burger King and an order from McDonald's in the same cart.
4. Tap when you're ready to order. You'll see this pop up at the bottom of the screen when you have something in your cart.
   
5. Tap your current payment method at the bottom of the screen. The card you initially added to Uber will be selected as the default payment method unless you change it. You can choose to pay Cash if it is available in your area.
   
6. Tap if available. If cash is not an option for payment when ordering from your current address, this option will not appear.
   
7. Tap to confirm. You'll get a confirmation email that the order has been placed and you'll be able to track your food's delivery progress every time you check the app.
