Just yesterday, on May 15, 2025, Uber Technologies, Inc. and iFood announced a strategic partnership in Brazil that will integrate their services. This collaboration will allow iFood users to book Uber rides directly from the iFood app, while Uber users will gain access to delivery services through a delivery tab in the Uber app[5]. The partnership aims to bring greater convenience to users of both applications, which are among Brazil’s most popular apps[5].
## New Program with U.S. Army
On May 14, 2025, Uber and the U.S. Army announced a new program designed to increase rideshare operations and base access at select Army installations[4]. This initiative will improve transportation options for service members on military bases[4].
## GO-GET 2025 Program
In March 2025, Uber launched its “GO-GET 2025” initiative, introducing new features designed to help users save money on rides, meals, and everyday moments[4]. The program focuses on making Uber’s services more affordable and accessible to users across various offerings.
## Other Recent Developments
Uber continues to expand its services with a focus on sustainability, as the company works toward becoming a zero-emission platform[1]. The company has been introducing new ways to help users “go anywhere and get anything together” while offering cost-saving options[1].
The company recently faced regulatory challenges in Europe, with the Dutch Data Protection Authority imposing a $324 million fine over the handling of drivers’ personal information, which Uber has stated it plans to appeal[2].
Uber has also been testing new service models, including shuttle services in select cities that operate along set routes with pickups every 20 minutes, though this feature appears to have been in development since last year[2].
