*Up to a maximum of $300 of Ride Credit per Via account.
**Terms of Use: The intended purpose of Via referral codes is to be shared with friends, family, and on personal social media networks only with individuals known personally to the referring rider. Posting referral codes on commercial websites or coupon aggregator websites, including (but not limited to) RetailMeNot, Born to Coupon and CouponMate is strictly prohibited and will result in referral credit being revoked at Via's discretion, and Via reserves the right to charge individuals for any rides paid for with referral credit obtained through the creation of new accounts created by that same individual. Using a Via referral code to refer new accounts created by one same individual is also strictly prohibited and will also result in referral credit being revoked at Via's discretion. Via reserves the right to prevent referrals from being completed, and to revoke any referral credit obtained, when the Via system determines that accounts are likely to have been created by the same individual (e.g. if the system identifies certain overlapping data/information between the accounts). In addition, Via reserves the right to revoke any referral credit likely to have been obtained for referrals of fraudulent accounts (including accounts set up with false personal or payment information), as determined by the Via system. Via reserves the right to change any codes which it determines have been compromised and remove individuals from its referral program at its discretion. Referral credit may expire after a time period determined in Via's discretion. Via reserves the right to make system-wide changes to its referral and ride credit programs for any reason, including by altering the way in which any and all riders can earn or retain ride credits and the way in which ride credits can be redeemed. Your continued use of the Via service means you accept any changes to Via's referral and/or ride credit programs.
Via referral credit is granted for use in Via's operating zone at the time the credit is granted. As Via's operating zone changes, Via reserves the right to change the way in which Via credit may be used. Via reserves the right to control the amount of credit that a rider is permitted to use on any individual ride. All referral credit has an expiry date of 30 days. This means that Via has the right to revoke any referral credit that has not been used within 30 days. For all accounts created after April 24th 2019 a maximum amount of $5 may be redeemed from referral and promotional credit per ride.
