Commuter Benefits

The Commuter Benefits Program saves you money on taxes if you commute to and from work using public transportation and/or if you pay for parking at or near work. Once you sign up, funds are deducted from your paycheck automatically on a pre-tax basis, lowering your taxable income.

The maximum pre-tax transit contribution for parking is $325 per month. The program is administered through Clarity Benefit Solutions. You’ll receive a Benefits debit card that you can use to pay providers at the time of service directly from your transit and/or parking account. If a parking facility doesn’t accept debit card payments, you can pay out-of-pocket and submit a reimbursement request from your account. If you are enrolled in a Flexible Spending Account, the Transportation benefit will be added to your Clarity debit card.

Transit Agency Integration
Enrolled participants can now make select transit agency purchases directly through Clarity's ordering platform - cutting out the step of loading funds to a Clarity debit card and then using the debit card to make their transit agency purchase. This feature is currently only available to plan participants located in California within the Clipper Transit Agency service area.
