In-depth guide
Verify Uber Direct webhook signatures — the full failure-mode walkthrough related to developer.uber.com, checked against official docs, with linked verified routes.
Steps
Confirm the delivery has reached a terminal completed state before attempting a tip update
Call the tip update endpoint for the delivery, supplying the new tip amount in the smallest currency unit (e.g. cents)
Handle the response to confirm the adjustment was accepted; store the updated tip value in your order record
If the adjustment is a full tip removal, pass a zero value rather than omitting the field
Reconcile the updated tip against your payout expectations for that delivery batch
Known gotchas
Tip adjustments have a limited post-delivery time window; requests outside that window will be rejected
The tip amount must be provided in the same currency used at delivery creation — do not mix currency assumptions
Uber Direct charges the tip to the merchant's account at time of delivery; adjustments affect future settlement, not real-time holds
