I wonder if Waymo is allowed to charge different prices, or advertise their own direct services, in these partnerships.

"Use the Waymo app instead, save 10%, and get a guaranteed Waymo!"

In Austin, Waymo app directs you to use uber instead.

Almost certainly Waymo has given Uber some kind of time-limited exclusivity in that market.
