The next best thing would probably be to either use something like Wirex, although that's a financial institution (and you don't seem too fond of them), or you can buy something like an Uber or Lyft gift card that you bought with Bitcoin from Bitrefill, or other sites that do accept BTC...

Bitcoin-based rideshare app ideas have been suggested before (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5216716.msg53577604#msg53577604), but the economics don't really work. Most drivers want to be paid fiat money, and most riders want to pay fiat money. There doesn't seem to be enough consumer demand yet to justify BitPay or similar integration either. Like AdolfinWolf said, your best bet is to hold bitcoins and buy Uber gift cards with them as needed. |
