The Sales Department recently kicked-off their Commuter’s Choice campaign with a series of events around the city promoting the program’s benefits for all SEPTA commuters. SEPTA employees handed out Commuter’s Choice program brochures and riders received giveaways and refreshments.
The events, which were held around town in front of various Center City businesses, including the Comcast Center, The Shops at Liberty Place, Reading Terminal Market, and in University City, promoted the perks of participating in the Commuter’s Choice program. The events were a hit among commuters, who entered a raffle for tickets to a Phillies game. Fourteen of the 25 raffle winners picked up their Phillies tickets during an event with SEPTA officials in front of a specially wrapped Commuter’s Choice Hybrid bus parked outside SEPTA’s headquarters.

SEPTA Senior Sales Development Specialist Jennifer Scimone, manages the Authority’s discount transit programs. “The programs have many perks that commuters and employees can benefit from.” said Scimone. “These programs are a win-win because employees save money and employers are adding a valuable benefit as well as saving FICA taxes. Providing our riders with knowledge about these programs is important for the region as a whole.”
