Program Now Available to Purchase
VRE Tickets with SmartBenefits

Are you having trouble getting your Metrochek transit benefits? SmartBenefits is available for VRE riders. A new program allows you to assign the dollar value of your transit benefit directly to a SmarBenefits account.

VRE riders can now access their transit benefits in two ways: They can purchase VRE tickets at any Arlington, Va.-based Commuter Store, or they can set up a reoccurring mail-order account with CommuterDirect.com.

Riders will still need to use VRE tickets to board our trains, however. This program will not mean that they can use their SmartTrip cards at our ticket vending machines. Instead, this program is a way that
our riders can use electronic benefits while we work through the difficult process of adapting our machines.
