UBER ADDING TIPPING TO APP KEEPS IT HASSLE FREE FOR PASSENGERS

UBER TIPPING IS YOUR CHOICE
Tipping is customary in the transportation business, but Uber confirmed that it has no plans to add a tipping feature to its app. This brings up the question of how these tips will be paid.
Drivers have a great working relationship with the company. Often, passengers tell them they'd like to provide a tip. But if they don't have cash, they can't do so through the Uber app. The convenience of Uber is what brings passengers who don't want any complications when riding and has Drivers excited to start the partnership with a system that creates minimum dissatisfaction.
Your Uber fare includes a default 20% tip when you take UberTAXI (an UberTaxi partnership NOT AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE), but if you're riding in an UberX, UberBlack, or UberSUV, there's no way to tip your driver.
Tipping is a surefire way to extend goodwill toward your driver. It's a gesture of appreciation for a job well done, and there's no reason to deny drivers and passengers this option. Uber's competitor, Lyft, includes this feature on all rides. Considering many drivers rely on Uber as a primary income source, it makes sense to allow them to earn a little extra money when passengers feel we've done a good job.
Uber doesn't prevent drivers from accepting a cash tip, but many people use Uber because they no longer carry cash, so it makes sense to have tipping as an in-app option.
We want to see the app become even better. Please sign my petition to ask Uber to add a tipping feature to all of its ride options!
Uber ON!
