How do I get started?
Register using the link below. It’s easy and free. You’ll create an account with your commute information.
To use your ride home on a bus or train, a Go-To Card or pass is required. Use your Go-To Card or pass to pay for the ride. Within a week of the trip, log on to your account and fill out an online reimbursement request. We’ll credit your balance with the amount you paid.
To use your ride home for cab fare, call the licensed taxi provider of your choice. A Go-To Card is not required for taxi reimbursement. Pay for the ride and be sure to get a signed and dated receipt that has the taxi company's name and contact information imprinted on it. Within 10 days of your ride, fill out an online reimbursement request. Print the request form and submit it by mail along with your taxi receipt -- late submissions and submissions from unlicensed taxis will be declined. You will receive reimbursement by check by U.S. mail within 21 days after we receive the request form.
