How does surge pricing appear on a rideshare receipt?
Surge pricing is disclosed before the passenger confirms the trip, the app shows the multiplier and the estimated fare at the time of booking. On the receipt, the surge-adjusted fare appears as a single trip fare line labeled with the multiplier (e.g., 'Trip Fare (1.8× Surge Pricing): $17.86'). The service fee is not multiplied by the surge, it remains the same as a non-surge trip. The receipt does not typically show what the fare would have been without surge; it shows only the surge-adjusted total. Some receipts include a note that surge pricing was accepted at booking.
Is the tip on a surge receipt calculated on the pre-surge or post-surge fare?
The tip on a rideshare receipt is entered by the passenger in the app after the trip ends, it is not automatically calculated as a percentage of the surge fare. The passenger chooses a dollar amount or percentage manually. In this example, the passenger tipped $3.00 on a $17.86 surge fare, about 16.8%, but this was a voluntary choice, not an auto-calculated percentage. Some passengers choose to tip based on the pre-surge estimate rather than the surge price; the app allows any tip amount. The tip goes 100% to the driver regardless of surge.
