This holiday season, give your staff the gift that gives all year long: an EcoPass! Start or renew a 2026 EcoPass contract for your business now to maximize your benefits.
For the next calendar year, you can provide EcoPasses for everyone in your business starting at $950 (just $25/person for businesses with more than 38 employees), before available reimbursements and tax credits. Your final out-of-pocket cost could be as low as $238 for the entire year for all your employees!
Coupled with Colorado’s Alternative Transportation Options Tax Credit, which cuts the cost of providing EcoPasses and other sustainable transportation benefits in half, it’s never been a better time to encourage employees to get to work by taking the bus, bicycling, or commuting together. Plus, businesses in the city of Boulder enrolling for the first or second year can benefit from additional cost-cutting incentives.
The EcoPass is a great pre-tax benefit for your staff. The pass covers rides on local and regional buses including the Skip, the HOP, all Flatiron Flyer buses, and the AB bus to Denver International Airport, as well as the A Line train to the airport and all light rail trains in Denver. You can also ride the NB bus to Eldora Mountain Ski Resort in the winter and connect with the Hessie Shuttle for summer hikes. Providing EcoPasses can also help your business get Colorado Clean Commute Certified.
Join more than 100 businesses in Boulder that offer the EcoPass to their employees and demonstrate your commitment to your staff, reducing traffic, and improving quality of life for everyone.
