Uber drivers have been reporting mysterious payments appearing in their accounts without a clear explanation.

Now one driver may have found the pattern.

In this clip from Show Me The Money Club, Sergio and Chris review weekly Uber earnings summaries that appear to show Uber’s platform fee being adjusted back to approximately 30% through an “earnings increase” payment.
