Commuter spending account

A commuter spending account through MyChoice Accounts lets you set aside money on a pretax basis to help pay for your commuting expenses.

Accounts moving to Fidelity

Fidelity will administer commuter accounts for Gen team members, replacing MyChoice Accounts, starting January 1, 2025.

Eligibility

All U.S. team members who work at least 20 hours per week are eligible to participate in a commuter spending account.

How it works

When you enroll, you will receive a MyChoice Accounts debit card that allows you to pay for eligible mass transit and parking expenses at the time of service.

You can check your balance anytime at benefitsolver.com or via the MyChoice mobile app.

There are two ways to use your commuter spending account. Enroll in one or both.

Transit

Use for mass transit expenses to and from work, including the bus, train, and light rail.

  • Monthly maximum: $315.
  • Use your MyChoice Accounts debit card to purchase transit passes, fare cards, or tickets.
  • Unused funds roll over to the following month as long as you participate in the plan.

Parking

Use for parking expenses near your Gen office or mass transit location.

  • Monthly maximum: $315.
  • Use your MyChoice Accounts debit card to pay for parking at locations that have a “parking” merchant category code and accept credit cards. Alternatively, you can file a claim for reimbursement on the MyChoice Accounts website or via the MyChoice mobile app.
  • Unused funds roll over to the following month as long as you participate in the plan.

How to enroll

Log in to benefitsolver.com (or through Benefitsolver on MyApps), and select Change My Benefits > Life Event > Update Parking / Transit Election

Your MyChoice Accounts debit card will be mailed to your home address.

Parking reimbursement

If you do not pay on a monthly basis or your parking vendor doesn’t accept the MyChoice Accounts debit card, you can request reimbursement:

  • Log in to benefitsolver.com (or through Benefitsolver on MyApps).
  • Select the MyChoice Accounts tile.
  • On the dashboard, select Submit Claims from the drop-down options.
  • Select Get Started.
  • Follow the instructions on the screen, and complete all required fields.
