Whether your employer offers a pre-tax, direct, or combination commuter benefit, SmartBenefits is a cost-effective way to manage commuter benefits for employees. To get started, employees will want to acquire a SmarTrip card and register it with WMATA. Let your employer know the serial number of the registered card; they will upload your commuting funds to the card each month.  Additionally, employees can reallocate transit benefits for use on MetroAccess, MARC, VRE, MTA commuter buses, registered vanpools, and independent bus services.

Note: Metrobus and Metrorail accept tap to pay with physical or digital cards, including SmarTrip, debit, and credit. To utilize your commuter benefits, you must use the SmarTrip card registered to your SmartBenefits account.
