If you live in a big city, you’ve probably heard of Uber – a relatively new service that offers on-demand private luxury cars (Lincoln Town Cars or Cadillac Escalades) at rates that are often not much more than regular taxis.<\/p>\n

Normally, when signing up for Uber, if you’re referred by an existing member you can get $10 in credit (and it’s completely free to sign up). Right now, there is an additional promotion where you can get an additional $25 voucher absolutely free, giving you a total of $35 in free credit to be used towards a future ride. Here are the steps:<\/p>\n

1) Go to http:\/\/www.giltcity.com\/chicago\/ubermay<\/a> where you can order a complimentary $25 voucher to Uber. At that link, simply click the green “Buy” button. Register for a free account with Gilt City (you can use a “junk” email address if you want, but make sure you use a real address you can check, because that’s where your voucher code will be emailed to). I’ve signed up and I can attest to it being a legitimate service, with no spam.
\n2) Once you’ve ordered your complimentary voucher, go to this link<\/a> which is my link to refer you, so we both get a bonus when you sign up.
\n3) Complete the sign up process with Uber (they do ask for a credit card, but again, I can attest to the service and they will not charge you anything up front).
\n4) When signing up for Uber, you should see your $10 promotional credit immediately, which is your bonus for being referred.
\n5) Within an hour or so, you should get an email from Gilt City with a Voucher Code for your $25 bonus credit. When you receive that email, go to your Uber account, click the “Promotions” link at the top, and enter your voucher code from Gilt City.<\/p>\n

That’s it! You now have $35 in credit to use towards private car service in any city where Uber provides service. The free $25 Gilt deal ends at noon tomorrow (May 29), so make sure you at least complete step 1 before then.<\/p>\n

Once you’ve signed up, you’ll have your own referral link that you can send to friends.<\/p>\n

Let me know if you have any questions!<\/p>\n\n
