Reliance Jio and Uber have announced a strategic partnership aimed at bringing the benefits of Jio Digital Life ecosystem to their users. As part of the partnership, Jio and Uber will work together and explore various opportunities to enhance the Digital Life experience of their users through complementary programmes.
JioMoney, the PPI wallet offered by Reliance Payment Solutions Ltd, and Uber announced an agreement that will enable Uber riders to pay for their rides using JioMoney and thereby enhance the digital transaction ecosystem in India. Similarly, JioMoney users will soon be able to request and pay for Uber rides from within the JioMoney app. The partnership will give a major boost to cash-free payments in India and provide mobility options to millions of Jio users.
Starting today, Uber will gradually rollout the JioMoney payment option for its users across the country. This integration provides a hassle-free payment experience to Uber riders and will be an added avenue for digital transactions for JioMoney’s rapidly growing user-base across India.
Anirban S Mukherjee, Business Head, JioMoney said that “Jio aims to bring the benefits of evolving digital technologies to every Indian through an entire ecosystem that will allow Indians to live Digital Life to the fullest. JioMoney is an integral part of the Jio ecosystem and is fast emerging as a preferred option for digital transactions due to its ease of use, intuitive interface and growing acceptability. JioMoney’s integration with Uber will power the rapid migration of many more Uber transactions to the digital platform.”
To celebrate the association, JioMoney and Uber will offer exclusive incentives to every user paying for Uber rides through JioMoney.
