Uber Family Profiles let you foot the bill for your loved ones<article>
<section class="page">
<p>Want to let your kids call an Uber on your dime? Now you can do so without surrendering your payment details.</p><p>With Uber’s new
Family Profiles feature, users can share their method of payment with other people. Just go to Settings, scroll down to “Add a Family Profile,” and choose up to 10 contacts that you’d like to have access. Those contacts are then able to choose the Family profile as a payment method when requesting a ride.</p><p>Compared to just manually entering your credit card details on someone else’s phone, Family Profiles offer more control. The profile’s organizer automatically gets a receipt for every ride, and can presumably revoke access (in case the kids start abusing their newfound freedom). But Uber doesn’t mention any way to approve ride requests on the fly, so there’s still a bit of trust involved in linking people to a profile.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3045533/software/uber-family-profiles-let-you-foot-the-bill-for-your-loved-ones.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
