iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — How popular is Uber for businesspeople? More popular than coffee, apparently — and needless to say, that’s obviously saying a lot.
According to the experts at Certify, in 2016, Uber surpassed Starbucks on the expense reports of some 1 million business travelers — the first time the ride share service was able to do so.
The coffee giant can take some comfort in the fact that Starbucks remained the most popular restaurant for employees to expense food and drink.
The experts say some 6 percent of ALL business travel transactions analyzed last year were for Uber; meanwhile, receipts for taxis and rental cars dwindled.
