Uber uses Braintree for payment processing[1]. Braintree already has integration with Coinbase[2]. I assume that bitcoin transfers being push (instead of pull like credit cards) is the reason they haven't activated it.

- jerguismi 11y agoUber already has "uber credit" system, for example promotions where you get $10 in your uber account. They could very trivially just add option, where you could add uber credit to your account with bitcoin (or any other push-only payment method, for example cash via coupons).
