Parking and Transit
The Commuter benefit through WEX allows associates to pay for transportation to and from work or pay for parking near your place of employment – tax free. The IRS sets the maximum dollar amount you can set aside each month as a part of your Commuter benefit.
 
Employees may contribute a maximum of $325 per month to their elected Parking or Transit account. Home Office associates can select EITHER Parking or Transit (not both). Any money contributed to your transit or parking benefit rolls over every month until it is used or you are no longer eligible.
 
Parking Employees must contribute at least $30 a month to receive the employer contribution of $60. Funds can only be used for parking by or near the office.
 
Transit Employees must contribute at least $15 a month to receive the employer contribution of $30. Bus, train, subway, ferry, water taxi, etc would be considered an eligible expense for this benefit. Ineligible uses of funds would be parking, Uber, bike sharing services.
