How do I add my husband to my Uber account?

Just head to the “Settings” section of the Uber app to set up a Family Profile. You can add up to five members to the account – perfect if you're using Uber for a family of 5.



In 2026, you cannot technically "merge" two separate Uber accounts, but the best way to add your husband to your Uber experience is by creating an Uber Family Profile. To do this, go to the "Account" tab in your Uber app, select "Settings," and then scroll down to "Family" to "Set up your family." Once the profile is created, you can invite your husband via his phone number or email. This allows him to request his own rides from his own phone while charging them to your central payment method. You will receive real-time notifications when he starts a trip and will be able to track his location for safety. Another option is the "Uber Business" profile feature, which functions similarly for shared expenses. If you simply want him to be able to use your account on his phone, you would have to share your login credentials, but Uber's security systems may flag this as suspicious if two people try to book rides simultaneously from different locations. The Family Profile is the "official" and most secure way to manage shared transportation and payments for a household.

Both rideshare companies are based in California, where it is $1.16 cheaper to take an Uber rather than a Lyft. But rideshare culture has been controversial in the companies' home state, with California's Proposition 22 exempting drivers from employee status — and net minimum wage — at the firms' recommendation.
