No more card payment for Uber and Uber Eats

[Sultan Mahmud Sujon]

Different banks have barred their clients from making payment for Uber with credit cards as the ride-hailing service debits the fund from the foreign currency quota.

The central bank instructed banks last week that payment for purchase of goods and services originated and sold in Bangladesh would not be settled through international cards.

Uber does not maintain any taka account with local banks to debit fund from clients’ credit card, said a Bangladesh Bank official.
