The Offer
- Freebird (app that gives you Uber/Lyft credit/cash back for completing specific actions/visiting retailers etc) is offering an additional $5 back when you use promo code URBDAY1. Remember the code needs to be added on Freebird, not Uber or Lyft.
Our Verdict
This in addition to the $35 you can already get for signing up and using a referral code and the $10 you can get from code ‘GOLONG’. This new $5 code also works for existing users.

my app says regret to inform this code is no longer active
Is this still working ?
Has anyone used one of the restaurant cashback deals through Freebird?
I did more than a week ago and I still see no cashback from it.
Wondering if that's normal.
I used it once and saw the credit within a day or two, IIRC. Make sure you paid with a card you've linked (Profile > Linked Cards). You can contact support at Profile > Support, then press the + button on the top right.
Is this supposed to add $5 cash balance right away, or an additional $5 cash back after a ride, or add 500 points?
After a ride
This one is $5 cash back after a ride. That $10 code from Rideshareguy was an outlier when it added to the cash balance.
Does anyone have an issue with this app where it will default to using Uber Cash? Eg it uses the platinum credit when i would prefer to save that for ubereats
What you can do is after ride is requested in Freebird, open Uber app and click Change payment and then select which card you would like to use.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing! :)
Thanks DoC. It worked for me
Abusing this goodwill is going to force them to clamp down on how they issue codes. This seems like a good way to ask for trouble.
It's one time use, not sure if it matters if you use it now or on your actual bday
Doesn't seem to matter. Mine shows expiration date of November 30 2019
Agreed. I immediately thought about Doc when I received this code for an actual birthday, but I held off from submitting it for this reason.
