Teens ages 13 to 17 can now order an Uber or food from Uber Eats as the rideshare service recently opened teen accounts to users in the Golden State.

Although not officially listed on the platform’s website, users are now able to add family members—including teens—by selecting the “family and teens” section under account. Up to 10 users can be added.
