Freebird: $5 Uber/Lyft Credit With Promo Code URBDAY1

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.

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

    • 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.
