I am reluctant to give them my credit card details if I'll not actually use them

Thank you
I use Lyft and Uber both all the time while I am traveling, and have for years. The service is excellent in my opinion. If you have a Chase credit card they give you a good deal on Lyft since Chase (JP Morgan) is financing them. Similarly, Uber has a relationship with American Express. Lyft is usually less expensive but not always. Since you are not liable for charges on consumer credit cards for fraudulent purchases there is little to worry about giving them your credit card. I would definitely recommend signing up for both - it is a safety issue if you ever get stranded.
