"That's why we're proud to partner with UATP, allowing UATP corporate account holders to expense rides and meals with Uber easily and efficiently. We look forward to working with UATP to help provide a frictionless customer journey from the booking process all the way through to payment and reconciliation, while creating an intuitive way for companies to improve their operations."

The Uber app is available in 71 countries and over 10,000 cities, with over 16 million trips completed worldwide. UATP account holders will now have access to Uber's on-demand network and have ride and meal information supplied on statements. Uber is the first rideshare platform company to connect with the UATP network.

"It's fantastic that this partnership lets UATP corporate travelers pay for rides and meals for Uber with UATP," said Ralph Kaiser, president and CEO, UATP. "With the added pressures in today's business travel, it is imperative to place as much ease on the traveler as possible.
