Employee C-Tran Terms & Conditions

Program Overview & Cost:

The Employee Viking Pass is a discounted “Express” CTRAN transit pass for PSU employees. The Viking Pass is valid on all CTRAN buses, including Express buses, as well as all buses and trains in the TriMet system from the date of sale through August 31, 2021.

The full price of the Employee Viking Pass program is $948. Enrollment after September 1, 2020, will be pro-rated based on the remaining annual value. Employees have the option of paying in full or, if eligible, electing to be deducted monthly from their PSU paycheck.

*Program pricing and subsidy: The price of the Employee Viking Pass Program is based on the

Annual Payroll Deduction Cycle - 12 month employees and 9 month employees that elect to receive 12 paychecks

Annual Payroll Deduction Cycle - 9 month employees that elect to receive 10 paychecks:

*Payments in July & August will be invoiced and payment due within 30 days.

Refunds & Replacements:

The CTRAN Employee Viking Pass may ONLY be returned in the event that the participating employee moves out of the CTRAN coverage area (documentation will be required), or the employee is separating from PSU. Employees meeting these requirements may have their Viking Pass returned/deactivated and stop future payroll deductions (current month deduction can only be stopped if Viking Pass is returned before the 10th day of the month). If paid in full, refund will be equal to the pro-rated price on the day the pass is returned/deactivated. Viking Pass deactivations and refunds cannot be back-dated.
If the Viking Pass Hop Card is lost or stolen, a replacement may be purchased at a fee of $3.

Employment Separation:

Separating employees with a Viking Pass must notify Transportation & Parking Services of their separation date at which time the Viking Pass will be deactivated. Failure to do so will result in the remaining value of the pass being billed to the employee’s university account and will be subject to fees and collection efforts.

Even in the event of employee separation, Viking Passes returned/deactivated after the 10th day of the month will not result in a refund of pre-tax monthly deductions per federal tax regulations (IRC). Employees who elect post tax deduction may receive a pro-rated refund to their university account. Employees who paid in full may have the pro-rated remaining value refunded to their university account and sent by check or credited back to the original purchasing credit card.
