The new product works in a similar way to the consumer version, except instead of ordering a single auto, you can order multiple cars from the Uber Central interface.
"Today, 65,000 organisations across the globe including Goldman Sachs, Dell, Wunderman, Bain & Company, Airtel, AT Kearney, Reliance ADA Group and Tata Steel, etc., rely on Uber for Business", the company added.
Riders who use Uber via Central do not need an Uber account, and over 8,000 companies have participated in a pilot programme which tested the service.
"We found out pretty early on that business users were going to be the fastest-growing area of our business", General Manager for Uber for Business Travis Bogard told eWEEK.
Uber finalized a new tool in its business arsenal today called Uber Central that enables business users to order multiple Ubers on behalf of customers or clients from a single app.

The ride-hailing company's business platform, Uber for Business, is expanding with the debut of Uber Central. "Globally, between the 70 countries and 500 cities we operate in, having the consistency of being able to pull the route, show up in the city and get the same experience, was really valuable and impactful". "It's not what Uber for Business was built for, but it's interesting to see and is why Uber Central was built", said Greg Grenier, Uber's head of product.
That being said, Uber Central does not appear to be free as was previously intended. "By Using Uber Central, organisations can now provide on-demand rides to anyone from a central dashboard, even if the traveller doesn't have a smartphone". After that, they can request a ride from Uber's menu of services, or save the data as a draft for easier use later.
Roadside assistance provider Agero offered rides to customers whose cars needed to be taken into the shop.
There are more meaningful use cases. Those same settings trickle down to Uber Central, too, so that console operators are restricted to only the settings administrators allow.
