Question 1

Why does my bank statement show 'UBER * EATS' instead of just Uber Eats?

Accepted Answer

This is the official billing descriptor that Uber Technologies uses when processing food delivery charges through Uber Eats. The asterisk format is standard for Uber's payment system and confirms the charge is legitimate. It will appear this way on your bank or credit card statement whenever you order food through the Uber Eats app or website.

Question 2

I don't remember ordering food recently — could this UBER * EATS charge be a mistake?

Accepted Answer

The charge could be from a recent Uber Eats food delivery order you placed, including any delivery fees, service fees, or tips added at checkout. Check your Uber Eats order history in the app under your account to match the charge to a specific order. If you share your account with a family member, they may have placed an order. If you still don't recognize it after checking, contact Uber Eats support directly through the app to dispute the charge.

Question 3

Why is the UBER * EATS amount on my statement different from what I expected to pay?

Accepted Answer

Uber Eats charges are variable and can include several components beyond just the food cost, such as delivery fees, service fees, small order fees, surge pricing during busy times, and any tips you added. Occasionally a temporary authorization hold may appear before the final amount is settled. Log into your Uber Eats account and review your order receipt to see a full breakdown of exactly what you were charged for that transaction.

Question 4

How do I stop future UBER * EATS charges from appearing on my account?

Accepted Answer

To prevent future Uber Eats charges, you can delete your saved payment method from the Uber Eats app by going to Account, then Wallet, and removing your card. If you have an Uber One membership that includes Uber Eats benefits, you would need to cancel that subscription through the app under Account and then Uber One to avoid recurring membership fees. There is no dedicated cancel URL available for Uber Eats, so all account and payment changes must be managed directly through the Uber Eats app or website at ubereats.com.
