Is there an acceptance rate on Uber?

The acceptance rate is exactly what it sounds like. The figure, expressed in a percentage, reflects the number of ride or delivery requests sent to you divided by the number you choose to accept. There was a time when Uber would deactivate drivers for low acceptance rates, but they no longer do this.
