  3. Improve conversion and reliability by reducing payment friction across key rider moments, including onboarding, trip start, and subscription renewals.
  4. Lead expansion of local payment methods (LPMs) to unlock new riders and markets, including underbanked and international users.
  5. Partner with Data Science and Fraud teams to build intelligent risk systems (e.g., pre-authentication models, fraud detection, revenue recovery) that maximize trips while minimizing losses.
