MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- There will be a new gift card on store shelves this upcoming holiday season.

Uber says it will start selling gift cards as a way to pay for its service.

They'll range from 15 dollars to 500 dollars.

They'll be available on Uber's website and in about 35 thousand stores including Walmart, Target, and CVS. The gift cards can also be redeemed in the Uber mobile app.

To redeem a gift card, recipients will need to enter the code shown on the card into the Uber app before requesting a ride. They will be valid in any U.S. city where Uber is available. The company says they never expire.

Lyft also debuted a physical gift card program earlier this year, selling $20 value cards exclusively at some U.S. Starbucks locations.
