just no clue how they decided on equivalent values, i can’t imagine how $2 could be 20 meals, and the optics of “$2 to food bank, or discounted delivery!” are just awful

They’re A/B testing to discover everyone’s moral thresholds. Mine offered the life of a fat man by default, or I could opt in to the lives of three skinny people if I sacrificed the fat man option.

morbid but possible that uber eats has an ethical testing subcommittee

$7 on Uber will be yet another record in the database, and they can ‘hide’ it in their accounting records. $2 for charity needs to leave their bank account, physically or virtually. They’d rather keep that on their DB. So $7 on Uber is about $2 in real cash

Maybe the funding for each reward is provided by a third-party, and they set the amounts?

Optics aside, they probably make more than $7 in fees when you make an order

$5? For education? In this country? That'll buy you a soda and a bag of chips from a campus vending machine. Boom you went to (a) college (technically)
