What looks like an extra trip charge is likely an authorization hold. Authorization holds for the amount of the upfront fare shown in your app may be issued when you request a ride. These temporary holds allow us to protect against fraud from unauthorized card usage and are never charged to your account.
At the start of a trip, Uber may place a temporary authorization hold for the upfront price of the trip on your payment method. This will show up as a “pending” charge on your account's payment method. When the trip completes, this authorization hold is converted to a charge for the final trip price.
If you didn't request this ride at all, it's possible that someone you know could have been logged into your account and may have requested a ride on your account without realizing it.

Uber may apply a temporary authorization hold for the value of the fare in advance, which will appear as a pending charge in your account's payment method.

After you take your first trip, you may see amounts listed as 'pending' on your bank statement or transaction history.
