This will save you money on payroll taxes and your employees money on income taxes.
EZ Rider Transit Pass Program
Employers who are a Club Ride partner may purchase discounted EZ Rider transit passes for employees in bulk at a discounted rate. If you purchase up to 200 passes, there’s a 5 percent discount, 201 to 500 passes, there’s a 10 percent discount, and more than 500 passes, there’s a 15 percent discount. To qualify, employers must sign a contract agreeing to purchase a specified number of passes over the course of the year.
Preferential Parking
Offering up-front or covered parking spaces to employees who carpool or vanpool is a great, no-cost incentive for employees to participate in the program. Club Ride provides reserved parking signs and preferential parking rearview mirror hangtags.
