Uber just rolled out cash trips in 50 markets, allowing verified riders to pay drivers directly with cash instead of digital transactions. On the surface, Uber says this is about accessibility for unbanked riders, but the real motivation might be cutting transaction fees, chargebacks, and customer service costs all while shifting the burden to drivers.

In this video, we break down:
💰 Why Uber really wants cash trips (and it’s not just about helping unbanked riders)
🚨 The new safety concerns drivers face by being seen as carrying cash
⚠️ The risk of negative balances and disputed fares
⏰ Why Uber limits cash trips to 6 a.m.–10 p.m. (and what that says about safety)
🪙 The headache of making change, handling deposits, and unpaid extra work

With cash trips, Uber is essentially moving back toward the taxi model they once disrupted and drivers are questioning if it’s worth the risk.
