Programs for employers

Keep your employees moving

No matter what business you're in, you know that helping employees get to work through transportation options is good for business. Driving alone puts a strain on nerves, the roads and our air! By adding commuter benefits at your company, your employees can save money and get to work relaxed. You'll benefit by attracting and retaining great employees.

Transit pass programs have no cost to the employer unless you choose to subsidize them. More than 80 percent of participating companies subsidize transit benefits because they earn tax credits. Contact Metro Transit today to figure out the best option for your company and employees. We will answer your questions and connect you with your local Transportation Management Organization (TMO) to assist you every step of the way.

Metropass

With Metropass, your employees gain access to deeply discounted, unlimited ride transit passes. You can pass the cost of the passes on to your employees, but if you subsidize any portion of that cost, you earn tax credits. Our flexible program allows you to pay for the passes your employees use on a monthly basis. Metropass is available to companies with 10 or more participants. Learn more here.

Go-To Cards via Fares Direct or My Fare Card List

If you have fewer than 10 employees interested in transit benefits, your organization can use convenient online administrator tools (Fares Direct or My Fare Cards List) to distribute and add value to Go-To Cards for your employees. Learn more about the different fare products such as stored value or multi-day passes here. Learn more about Fares Direct (minimum $500 monthly order) and My Fare Card List (no monthly minimum, credit card required) here.

One Ride Coupons

One Ride Coupons are available to purchase by mail and are valid for any ride up to $3.00. Purchase One Ride Coupons for very occasional riders or for potential riders that would like to try riding transit before committing to a Metropass or Go-To Card. 

One Ride Coupons are available at no cost to Metropass participants if distributed to potential Metropass cardholders; contact us for more information.
