With ID.me’s award-winning verification technology, Uber is proud to offer $25 off the first ride to members of the military, veterans, first responders and students.

“Uber has transformed the way consumers think about transportation by providing more options in what had been a relatively stagnant market. We are delighted that Uber has partnered with ID.me in order to recognize our nation’s military and veterans, first responders, and students with a special discount,” said ID.me CEO and co-founder, Blake Hall.
