How Commuter Cards Work for Parking/Transit
If your commuting pattern varies, you have the option to use your contributions to purchase transit and/or parking Commuter Cards.
  • The transit Commuter Card is available to participants in a location where the associate transit agency (e.g., MetroCard, NJ Transit Rail) accepts a debit card and/or credit card.
  • The parking Commuter Card can be used to pay for parking directly (at participating garages), eliminating the need to pay for parking yourself and file claims or submit receipts for reimbursement. Check with Health Equity to see if your garage is participating.
With the Commuter Cards, you decide how much money to load onto your card each month to cover your monthly commuting costs. As with every payment option, be sure to save your receipts for all Health Equity Commuter Card transactions.
Please Note: The Commuter Card is intended for use each month. If Health Equity determines that the outstanding card balance exceeds a certain threshold, contributions to that account will be suspended until the balance on your card is below that threshold.
