CapMetro for Business
Austin's best employers are offering benefits that include public transit.
Operating in one of the country's tightest labor markets and with traffic what it is, Austin-area employers need every tool at their disposal to recruit and retain employees. CapMetro for Business offers a bulk discount program that lets businesses offer employees discounted access to public transit.
Pre-Tax Commuter Benefits
Help employees save on commuting costs by setting up a pre-tax transportation benefit to pay for transit fares. The pre-tax deduction can be combined with a partial or full subsidy from the employer. Please contact your benefits or payroll provider about setting up a pre-tax transportation deduction.
CapMetro is majorly upgrading our fare payment system!
We're rolling out new scanners, a new app, a new fare card and eventually the much tap to pay feature. However, we have removed digital 31-day passes and have switched to automatic 31-day fare capping through the Umo app for all our customers.
Action Needed for Employers
- Fill out this form by February 17th so we can create your new business account in Umo.
- Notify your employees that they will need to download and create an account in Umo before March.
Thank you for your patience through this migration process. If you have further questions, please email employerprograms@capmetro.org.
