Reliance Jio announces strategic partnership with Uber

Reliance Jio and Uber have announced a strategic partnership under which Uber will integrate various digital services of Reliance Jio including JioMoney into its platform and thereby boost the digital transaction ecosystem in India.

As a result Uber riders will be able to pay for their rides using JioMoney, and similarly JioMoney users will be able to request and pay for Uber rides within the JioMoney app.

Starting today, Uber will gradually rollout JioMoney options for its users across the country. To celebrate the partnership, both companies will offer exclusive incentives to every user paying for Uber rides through JioMoney.

Prior to Reliance Jio-Uber partnership, the cab aggregator offered payment through options such as PayTm wallet, cash, debit and credit cards.
