7. Up-front Pricing. Uber may display a ride option to Riders that allows a Rider to agree
to a fixed fare for a given ride, which fixed fare is communicated via the Uber Rides
Platform to a Rider at the time a ride is booked (“Up-Front Pricing”). In the event that
you provide Transportation Services to Riders who choose to use the Up-Front Pricing
option, you acknowledge and agree that: (a) the Fare for each such instance of
Transportation Services is a fixed fare, which is communicated to a Rider when the ride
is booked, and communicated to you at the end of such ride (“Up-Front Fare”) (for the
avoidance of doubt, “Up-Front Fare” has the same meaning as “Fare” in the Agreement
except as specifically set forth in this Addendum); and (b) the Up-Front Fare will be
calculated based on historical data for similar UberX (or other relevant P2P ridesharing
option) trips, taking into account various factors including time of day, day of week and
age of comparable trip data as well as any applicable surge at the time the ride is
booked. Service Fees on Up-Front Fares will be the same as for other UberX (or other
relevant P2P ridesharing option) trips in your region. If a Rider changes their destination
during a particular trip, the Up-Front Fare will no longer apply; rather the Fare will be
calculated based upon a base fare amount plus distance and/or time amounts as set
forth in this Addendum. You maintain the right at all times to negotiate a Fare with the
Rider that is different from the recommended Up-Front Fare, in accordance with
section 6.1(c) of the main Agreement terms.
8. UberX Share: Uber may display a ride-matching option to Riders in your region that
enables two or more Riders unknown to each other to share in all or a portion of a given
trip provided by you. This option is known as “UberX Share”.
8.1. Unmatched trip: If a Rider selects the UberX Share option but is not
successfully matched with another Rider, then the Fare will be at least 5% less
than what the Fare would have been for an equivalent non-shared trip on
UberX, and the Service Fee payable to Uber will be reduced by an amount
such that the net Fare (net of Uber’s Service Fee) is the same as it would have
been for the equivalent ordinary trip with UberX.
8.2. Matched trips: If two or more Riders are successfully matched together on a
single trip, and if you accept the Request for the added shared trip, then the
Fare charged to the co-Riders for the shared trip will be, in sum, at least as
much as what the the Fare would have been for an equivalent non-shared trip
with UberX commencing at the pickup of the very first co-Rider and ending at
the dropoff of the very last co-Rider. The Fare amount will be apportioned
between the Riders based on each Rider’s time and distance, and may be
apportioned more greatly to a Rider whose destination causes other
co-Rider(s) to travel longer than they would have in a non-shared trip with
UberX. Each Rider will be charged an individual Booking Fee as for a
non-shared trip with UberX, as described in the ‘Booking Fee’ section above.
10
Other Fees, other than the Booking Fee, will be reduced to account for shared
trips.
For a successfully-matched trip, the Service Fee that you pay to Uber will vary
per trip leg and will be viewable in the Driver App. The Service Fee for each trip
leg will be a minimum of 5% and a maximum of 45% of the Fare for that trip
leg. The Service Fee will be calculated such that the net Fare (net of Uber’s
Service Fee) is at least as much as what the net Fare would have been for an
equivalent non-shared trip with UberX commencing at the pickup of the very
first co-Rider and ending at the dropoff of the very last co-Rider.
When you receive a Request from a Rider to be added to your existing trip, you
will have the choice and opportunity to decline the added Rider’s Request, with
no penalty to you. You will be shown the Fare and Other Fees for each co-Rider
in the waybill section of the Driver App.
8.3. Rider changes: For both matched and unmatched UberX Share trips, if,
following a Rider Request, a Rider’s requested dropoff point or routing is
changed to be materially different from that specified at the time of making the
Request in the Uber Platform, the Fare will be adjusted accordingly to reflect
the Rider’s requested change.
8.4. Cancellations and wait times: For both matched and unmatched trips with
UberX Share, wait time fees and Cancellation Fees are the same as for a
non-shared trip with UberX, as described in section 1 above.
9.2. For each such ride (or series of rides provided simultaneously in whole or in
part), the recommended Fare for an individual ride will be based on the
estimated time and distance applicable to that individual ride plus a fee for an
additional Rider companion, if any, and will be communicated to you in the
Driver App before that ride starts, and is subject to the remaining paragraphs
below (“UberPOOL Fare”; for clarity, “UberPOOL Fare” has the same meaning
11
as “Fare” in the Agreement main terms except as specifically set forth in this
Addendum):
The Service Fee that you pay to Uber will vary on a per-ride basis and will be
communicated to you in the Driver App before the ride starts. However, the
Service Fee that you pay to Uber for a given ride provided to an UberPOOL
Rider where no other rides are simultaneously being provided (i.e., there is no
matched Rider) will not exceed the Service Fee that you would pay for the
same ride to a Rider not utilizing UberPOOL.
Where, following a Rider Request, the actual dropoff point of a Rider using
UberPOOL is materially different from that Rider’s dropoff point specified at the
time of ride request in the Uber Rides Platform, the Fare paid by that Rider for
their ride will not be based on the UberPOOL Fare and will instead be
calculated based on current UberX fares. For clarity, no discount will apply. The
relevant applicable Service Fee will be computed pursuant to the “Service Fee”
section of this Addendum above.
10. Gatineau-Ottawa Surcharge. For each trip commencing in the Ottawa Region and
terminating in the Gatineau Region, you will charge the Rider an additional surcharge of
$5.00 per trip. The Gatineau-Ottawa Surcharge is deemed to be a part of your Fare but
it will not be subject to the Service Fee. You will receive and keep the entirety of the
Gatineau-Ottawa Surcharge.
11. Uber Green. For every trip completed using the low-emissions or zero-emissions
vehicle option known as “Uber Green”, you will charge Riders an additional $1. Uber will
charge you a “Green Future Program” fee of $0.50 for every trip completed using the
Uber Green option. This option may not be available in your region.
12. Uber Pet. For every trip completed using the pet-friendly vehicle option known as “Uber
Pet”, an Uber Pet Fee of $5 is an additional component of the Fare. If this option is
available in your region, you may choose whether to opt-in or opt-out of Uber Pet trips.
Whether or not you choose to use the Uber Pet option, you must transport service
animals under human-rights laws and in accordance with the Service Animal and
Assistive Devices Policy. A service animal is not a pet.
13. Reserve. You may receive Requests for pre-arranged trips scheduled in advance. This
option is known as:
● “Premium Reserve” when the trip requested is a Premier, Premier SUV, Black,
or Black SUV trip; and
● “Uber Reserve” when the trip requested is an UberX, UberXL,, or Comfort trip;
and
12
● “Premium Reserve Airport Pickup” when the trip requested is a Premier,
Premier SUV, Black, or Black SUV trip commencing at an airport such as YYZ,
(collectively referred to as “Reserve”)
If you receive a Reserve Request, you will be provided with additional information about
the Request including the date and time of the trip, and general pick-up and drop-off
area. In addition, Uber may communicate certain parameters to you regarding Reserve
trips in advance of those trips. For example, communicated parameters could be to be
online in the Driver App at least 60 minutes prior to the commencement of the
pre-arranged trip, and/or to be within a certain driving distance of the Rider at the time
you receive the in-app notification to drive towards the pickup location, otherwise the
Uber Rides Platform may consider your acceptance of the Request to have been
cancelled by you. You can retrieve these additional parameters in the Driver App, e.g.
by selecting ‘See details’ under ‘Reservation Policy’. If you accept the Request, you are
communicating to the Rider that you are committing to transport the Rider at that future
time and date.
The Fare, Service Fee and Other Fees for a pre-arranged Reserve trip are the same as
for the equivalent non-Reserve trip option, except that (a) you will charge Riders a
Reservation Fee, as set out below, which is an additional component of your Fare and is
subject to the usual Service Fee, (b) the minimum charge will be different, as set out
below, and (c) you will charge a Cancellation Fee to the Rider in certain situations, as
set out in the table below.

and Service Fees for that region will apply for those Requests.

15. Sales Tax. You agree that you have the obligation under the Excise Tax Act (Canada) to
register for a GST/HST account with the Canada Revenue Agency. You also agree that
Uber or its affiliate will collect GST/HST from Riders on your behalf in respect of a Fare
(and, for clarity, applicable charges such as Other Fees), and that such collection will be
considered the same as a collection made directly by you from the Rider. Uber or its
Affiliate will remit to you, or cause to be remitted to you, such collected GST/HST on at
least a weekly basis. You agree that the GST/HST amounts remitted to you need not be
sent separately from any other remittances to you, and need not be accompanied by
any documentation setting out which portion of such remittance is on account of
GST/HST. You understand that, in accordance with the Excise Tax Act (Canada), you
will hold any such collected GST/HST in trust for the Government of Canada, subject to
any right you may have to claim input tax credits. You, and not Uber, are responsible for
timely remittance of the correct amount of such GST/HST to the Canada Revenue
Agency. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement, Uber will calculate the Service Fee
and any other amount charged to you exclusive of GST/HST.
The same applies in respect of any provincial Sales Tax, with the required changes, to
the extent any such obligation exists under the provincial Sales Tax rule of your
province.
16.2. You confirm your awareness that YYZ prohibits certain activities on Airport
property, including: (a) turning off or disabling the Driver App while on Airport
property, unless you are departing the Airport after a drop-off; (b) transporting
Riders to or from the Airport in a vehicle that is not your own Vehicle or
otherwise that does not comply with applicable laws, rules, or regulations; (c)
staging, picking up, or discharging passengers, or their baggage, at any
location other than the areas designated for those purposes; (d) failing to
provide information, or providing false information, as required, to a police
officer or Airport Authority representative; (e) intoxicated driving whether due to
the consumption of alcohol, illegal or controlled substance in the Controlled
Drugs and Substances Act, or any other intoxicating substance; (f) failing to
18
operate a vehicle in a safe manner; (g) failing to comply with posted speed
limits and traffic control signs; (h) using profane or vulgar language; (i) soliciting
or advertising for or on behalf of any hotel, club, nightclub or any other
business (j) performing or causing to be performed any activity prohibited by
any applicable laws, rules, or regulations ; (k) operating a vehicle which is not in
a safe mechanical condition or which lacks mandatory safety equipment; (l)
disconnecting or defeating any pollution control equipment; and (m) causing or
permitting to be caused waste of any kind on airport property. You confirm your
awareness and understanding that, for engaging in these activities, an
appropriate authority including YYZ may issue tickets to you, for which you
alone are liable and responsible to resolve, or that your access to the airport
may be suspended or terminated.
16.3. You agree that, as to trips to and from YYZ, information about you, your
Vehicle, and your trip (including the date and time the trip began, your Vehicle’s
make, model, and license plate number, and your identity information) may be
shared with Greater Toronto Airports Authority.
