Due to the recent fuel price increase in South Africa Uber will adjust its fuel incentives, on Monday, to make up for the additional weekly costs incurred by full-time drivers.
The company said they are not adjusting fares yet until they have solutions in place to help the uber drivers.
An Uber spokesperson said the recent fuel increase will impact on everyone in South Africa, regardless of their industry, however, their teams are working hard every day to ensure drivers using their app continue to thrive.
Uber said they always keep track of fares and examine consumer price sensitivities to make certain fares are correctly priced in order that riders continue to take trips and drivers have access to additional fare paying passengers.
