Short answer: Waymo shows $10 off a first ride with code BXJUMNE9. Uber's own promo page lists 30% off one first ride, up to $8. The Waymo offer is a flat amount, while the Uber offer shrinks on short trips. A $20 fare earns $6 from Uber, and Uber's full $8 needs a fare of about $26.67 or more. Waymo only runs in its service cities and our code is limited each month.
