COMMUTER PROGRAMS

NuRide: Rewards for a Greener Commute

Get points each time you take a green trip (such as biking, walking, carpooling and using public transit)!
Sign-up for NuRide, record your green trips, and then redeem your points for rewards like restaurant coupons,
retailer discounts and tickets to shows and attractions!

What is NuRide?

A rewards program for commuters who take greener trips. The trips you take by not driving alone – bike, walk, carpool, vanpool, telecommute, public transit (bus, shuttle, subway, train, ferry) or even work a compressed week.

How Does it Work?

The Seaport TMA is collaborating with the Mass. Department of Transportation to bring commuters and residents in the Commonwealth a free on-line program for commuters to:

  1. Record your “greener trips” when you don't drive alone
  2. Receive points for those trips
  3. Redeem your points for rewards (restaurants, retailers, events, sweepstakes entries and attractions)
  4. Track your savings (money saved; CO2 emissions saved)
  5. And/or register to find a carpool partner

How do I register?

Register here and make sure to use promo code SeaportTMA to automatically receive 1,000 NuRide points!

What if I am already registered in the Seaport TMA's Carpool Program?

You'll still remain in our program to receive your gas card rewards. If you've been waiting to find a match, we'll still look for a match for you AND you can try to find a match through NuRide as well!
