There is no change in ownership of Thames Clippers with AEG, owners and operators of The O2 the majority stakeholder.
The new initiative is geared to encouraging more people to travel by boat around the city and, by doing so, support the ongoing expansion of the cross London river network.
Branded Uber Boats will now serve piers along the Thames from Putney to Woolwich calling at 23 piers on route.
Uber users can buy tickets in advance through the Uber app.
Passengers also be able to purchase tickets from Thames Clippers sales channels, including touching in and out with contactless or Oyster.
The partnership comes as visitors and commuters are being attracted by the river transport network.
It also offers views of riverside London landmarks including Battersea Power Station and the Tower of London, St Paul’s Cathedral and The O2.
A River Roamer day ticket offers unlimited hop-on-hop-off travel.
