Clarity SmartRide FAQs
Clarity SmartRide is truly a win-win! It’s an employer-sponsored benefit program that allows you to set aside pre-tax (and in some cases, if your employer allows, post-tax) funds in separate accounts to pay for qualified expenses associated with your commute to work. This includes expenses for mass transit, private parking, and even popular rideshare platforms like UberPool and Lyft Line!
Contributions to Clarity SmartRide are deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis, which reduces your taxable income. You can save an average of 30% on your eligible transit and parking expenses–who doesn’t want to get paid on their way to work?!
You can use SmartRide for qualified expenses like transit passes, tokens, fare cards, vouchers, or similar items entitling you to ride a mass transit vehicle to or from work. The mass transit vehicle can be publicly or privately operated and includes bus, rail, or ferry transportation. You also have the flexibility to start, stop or change elections monthly and any unused funds will carry over from month to month!
