Get Free (or Discounted) Uber Rides!
Score free (or discounted) Uber rides this semester using UK Transportation Services' Wildcab Vouchers Program.
University of Kentucky students are eligible to participate in the free Wildcab Vouchers program, made possible by a partnership between UK Transportation Services, the UK Student Government Association, and Uber.
Details:
- Wildcab Vouchers provides students with up to ten $10 rides per semester.
- Vouchers are valid Thursday through Sunday between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. for rides anywhere within Fayette County.
- Students are responsible for any amount over the initial $10 when redeeming a ride voucher; however, many rides within the service area cost $10 or less, in which case rides will be essentially free to the student.
Students also have the option to redeem a voucher on a ride or save it for a future trip. Please note that tips are extra and are the financial responsibility of the student. Additional voucher terms and conditions may apply upon redemption.
Sign up for this program today! Your voucher will be available immediately and will be added to your Uber account wallet for use during program service hours. Vouchers expire at the end of each semester, but students can sign up for the program at any time during the semester.
“Wildcab Vouchers provide a seamless and responsible transportation solution, empowering students with a reliable transit option that supports the modern campus experience," said James Hutchins, associate director for UK Transportation Services.
During the fall 2025 semester, students took 19,128 trips using a voucher, up from 13,546 during the spring semester.
Wildcab Vouchers leverages Uber’s vast network of drivers to ensure reliable transportation is available to students when it’s needed the most. For details about the program and to sign up for this free student benefit, visit this page.
