Uber Offers Drivers Hundreds of Dollars in Extra Cash. Here’s What They Have to Do to Get It.

Uber is offering some drivers hundreds of dollars in incentive pay to boost driver participation ahead of the busy holiday season. The bonuses vary depending on the number of rides completed within a set time period and can reach up to $1,225 for referring new drivers.
