Using UBER for ACU travel

UBER for Business offers all the features of the standard UBER transportation service, with work-related UBER trips being cashless, cardless and charged directly back to ACU.

Staff approved to use UBER for Business will be required to first setup a personal Uber account before they can be added to the system. Once active on ACU’s account, you can use the UBER app on your smartphone to book a work-related trip by tapping on your Personal Profile and switching to your ACU Business Profile. The cost of the trip is charged directly back to ACU and your trip receipt sent to your work email, so you won’t need to:

• Carry cash
• Collect a receipt
• Use a credit card or
• Deal with matching up expense items against reports

More information on using Uber for Business for ACU-related travel is available in the Service Central knowledge base.

How to connect with ACU UBER for Business

Staff wishing to connect with UBER need to make a request for UBER for Business access via Service Central.

Staff wishing to book for themselves only would request the option UBER Travel. Staff nominated to be an UBER Central Booker would select this option. This will enable the Central Booker to book for themselves, other staff or non ACU staff and students.  The UBER app has good security measures in place and you can also choose to turn on Two-Step Verification for extra peace of mind in preventing unauthorised access to your app.

For all other staff travellers incurring a ground transportation expense, the staff reimbursement process Staff Reimbursement Form will need to be undertaken to be reimbursed for the expense incurred.
