Uber is an international mobile ride company, which gives people the possibility for faster, reliable and more economical transport. Uber has developed and operated under the mobile application that allows its customers that have smartphones to request a trip somewhere.

Your Uber ride is charged automatically as soon as your fare ends. As a confirmation you receive an e-mail with the payment details and details about the trip.

This is pretty good, as it gives you possibility to know where the car is at all times, and at what exact time it will arrive.
