By the way, here's an article from last summer on the same topic, quoting Uber as saying: “With upfront fares, riders agree to a fare that’s calculated in advance while drivers get paid based on a per-mile, per-minute rate as is normal with uberX,” the spokesman told Fortune. “Because no predictive model is 100% perfect, what riders pay and drivers earn on a trip may differ slightly from time to time.”[1] However, it is confusing, and Uber's own site makes no mention of upfront pricing and says: "Drivers using the partner app are charged an Uber Fee as a percentage of each trip fare." Those two statements are at odds with each other, and both are from official Uber sources.
