Fall in Central Texas means sporting events, festivals, and more traffic on already busy roads. The good news? You can skip some of the stress by choosing shared and active transportation. Whether you carpool, take transit, or bike, every trip helps cut congestion - and earns you cash rewards! When you download the ConnectSmart app and use active and shared transportation to get to festivals and events from October 1 - November 15, you'll be entered to win one of three $50 H-E-B gift cards. You'll also get rewards on the app for carpool trips that you can redeem for gift cards at retailers like Starbucks and Chipotle!
To get started, download ConnectSmart to plan your trip, find carpool matches, and set up your commute rewards profile.

Hoping to earn rewards for your commute trips? You're in luck! The CTXGO app gives commuters up to $5 a day when they choose to not drive alone between home and work. We encourage you to download it so you can earn rewards on your workdays too!
