How will Uber Reserve affect driver earnings? In this video, RSG contributor Chris covers how this feature will effect drivers and what if it will effect Uber driver earnings in any way.

Uber Reserve: Enhanced Scheduled Rides Feature

Over the next week or so, Uber is rolling out a new feature called Uber Reserve. It’ll be available in 20+ cities across the U.S. and “provides you added control over your trip” according to Uber’s announcement. Uber announced this new feature to give ‘more certainty to our lives, especially during these uncertain times.”

Basically, Uber Reserve takes scheduled rides to the next level. As drivers, you’ll get from two hours up to 7 days heads up for these pre-scheduled rides. Passengers will be allowed to schedule trips up to 30 days in advance, with an upfront fare presented as scheduled rides do now.

As a driver, you’ll be matched up with your passenger, but don’t worry, you’ll still get the chance to not accept any trip you don’t want.

Additional Earning Opportunity for Drivers
A perk for drivers is that if an Uber Reserve ride is canceled less than an hour before the trip was scheduled to start, the driver will receive the full fee associated with the fare—meaning if it’s logged as a $52 trip, the driver will receive the full $52 if canceled within that time frame.

Uber Reserve in Action for Drivers

How does Uber Reserve work for drivers? As a driver, you need to be online an hour before the scheduled trip. In the Uber app, you’ll receive trips heading toward your reservation in the meantime.
If you’re offline when it’s getting closer to the one-hour-before mark, you’ll receive a notification telling you to go online within the next 15 minutes. If you don’t log in during that time, the reserved trip will be pushed to another driver.
