HOUSTON, Texas – Teenagers or parents of tweens, listen up! If you have a child who has recently taken a driver’s test but has unfortunately failed (to be fair, parallel parking is tricky), don’t worry, you won’t have to chauffeur them around for much longer.

Earlier this month, Uber announced that it’s now offering Uber teen accounts one month of free rides. But wait, there’s a catch. Teens will be provided up to six rides, with a max of $20 per ride.

To cash in on the free rides, teens have to click here, scan the QR code, and submit their failing test.

The offer will expire on July 18, 2025, so teens better get to it now.

The promotion is only valid for teen users who have never taken a ride or ordered with Uber and/or have an existing Uber teen account and have not previously redeemed this offer. The offer does not apply to rides requested by an adult on the teen’s behalf. Valid only for trips taken on a personal profile.
