How it works

Commuter benefits, administered by WEX, allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay eligible expenses, including:

  • Mass transit: buses, trains, subways, vanpools (must seat at least six adults), ferries
  • Parking: lots, garages, parking facilities and parking meters near your main work location or transit station

Depending on your city and state, UberPool, Lyft Shared and Via shared rides may also count as eligible expenses. You cannot use your commuter benefit to pay for fuel or tolls.

Getting started

Enroll through the Jabil Benefits Service Center, and choose the amount you’d like to contribute, up to $300 per month for mass transit expenses and up to $300 per month for parking (or current IRS limit). The amount will be deducted from each paycheck and deposited into your account. The funds are available to use after the deposit. If you make a change to the amount, that change will be effective the first paycheck of the following month.

You can change the amount you contribute at any time, and your money rolls over month to month until you use the money or leave Jabil.

Using your account

You can use your account a few ways:

  • Set up a recurring online order that pulls from your account for mass transit expenses.
  • Use your WEX benefits card to pay an expense* (for example, from a vending machine or ticket window).
  • Pay upfront and submit receipts to WEX for reimbursement from your account later.

*Your current account balance must have enough to cover the expense at this time.

You can get information about your account by logging into your account online, or contacting customer service via live chat, email or phone.

Depending on your tax rate, your savings could equal 3 free months of transit or parking in one year.
