It’s uncommon to see Uber tied up with fashion and style, nor with students since Uber rides can be expensive. But Uber wants to make sure it is contributing what it can on fronts.
Uber’s exclusive membership program, Uber One, is helping its student tier get more savings when they need stylish and sophisticated outfits for school, meet with friends, proms, balls, graduations, or a party at the club with schoolmates.
Though its Uber One for Students, Uber One’s student version introduced last year, popular online rental service Nuuly can reach out to a wider customer base.
Nuuly has always offered a practical way to wear new clothes on a budget. Nuuly is a platform where you can order clothing, not food, and have them delivered to your doorstep.
Under this partnership, you can have a practical way of wearing new clothes on a budget. Nuuly starts its work when you visit its official website. Now, you must choose six times from thousands of styles available.
Nuuly categorizes its styles according to events and occasions, category, fit, and brands. There are literally several brands on Nuuly, from A to Z. It has a wide range of clothing brands you love, such as Anthropologie, Free People, and Urban Outfitters.
You almost get everything when choosing to rent clothes on Nuuly, since laundry and dry cleaning are included, you get free shipping and returns, and it’s a sustainable option compared to purchasing new clothes from fast fashion retailers. As for the events, you can rent outfits for formal events or for your everyday school day.
But where’s Uber? Uber? Well, even if Uber is chiefly a ridesharing service, this partnership of Nuuly with Uber One for Students allows young fashionistas to receive $20 off any Nuuly purchase. Yes, with each of their purchase. And, it’s not just a one-time thing, but this benefit is valid to use up to four times every year.
Also, note that this promo from Uber and Nuuly is also part of the new student discount program of the clothing rental platform, which includes $10 off your subscription free every month.
Nuuly’s catalog features dresses, tops, bottoms, jumpsuits and rompers, jackets and coats, sweaters and sweatshirts, athleisure wear, vintage, and even outfits for your kids.
And if you think Nuuly was forced or influenced to enter this deal, it wasn’t. It’s perfect timing for them because they consider themselves profitable lately, and they are aiming for a whopping $500 million in sales this year, 2025.
Brands like Urban Outfitters cannot hold their excitement.
Its CEO, Richard Hayne, told the media, “Last year, I described our customers’ mood as enthusiastic rather than exuberant. I believe this remains an accurate description today. Customer demand has remained remarkably consistent. They’re hungry for the latest fashions and our designers and merchants continue to create products and assortments that please them.”
Go ahead and see for yourself, whether you are a student yourself renting clothing or parents who want their kids to be confident in school.
