Your team will assist you in linking with your local contact at Commute with Enterprise to help answer any questions you have about the benefit and set you up with vanpool participants that live in your area and work similar hours as you.
2. Once you have your Vanpool determined, Enterprise will arrange a van for you to lease.

Note
The election window for enrolling in commuter benefits runs from the 1st through the 15th of every month. If you have missed the election window for the upcoming benefit month, please wait until the 1st of the following month to enroll.
1. Login to your organization's commute website with your work email address and password. Once you're logged in, navigate to the Benefit Elections tab in the left hand navigation menu.
2. The page will contain your Current Monthly Elections summary. The Vanpool benefit utilizes the full amount of subsidy dollars offered by your employer. If you are currently enrolled in any existing benefits using an employer subsidy (for example, the Commuter Card for Transit), you'll need to cancel the benefit before proceeding to the next step. If you aren't enrolled in any current benefits, select Enroll in Available Benefits.
3. On the Available Benefits page, you will see a list of all the commuter benefit options for which you are eligible. To see the details for the Commute with Enterprise Vanpool benefit, click the + icon next to Commute with Enterprise Vanpool.

The cost of this benefit is completely covered by your employer, so no additional pre-tax contribution from your paycheck will be required. If you would like to elect this benefit, click Enroll.
