Ride to Rewards

On Nov 1, Metro Transit launched a new program to encourage people to ride. This is the first of its kind program in the transit industry. Riders can accumulate points by riding the bus and trains and by shopping at participating merchants.

The program, Ride to Rewards, is free and open to anyone with a Go-to-card, Metropass, U-Pass' College Pass, or Student Pass. Point can be converted to value on their passes or redeem for gift cards. Passengers can enroll in the program at RideToRewards.com
