Chicago Moves is a new initiative by the City of Chicago to try and alleviate the high spike of transportation cost. Up to 50,000 prepaid gas cards of $150 and 100,000 prepaid transit cards of $50 to eligible residents across the city. There are limited amounts of cards so if you are eligible resident, don't delay on applying!
- The transit cards may be used to purchase fare for public transportation purposes at Ventra vending machines located at CTA stations, Ventra retail locations located across the city or digitally via the Ventra website or mobile app. Use of the gas card will be limited to the purchase of gas at pumps located at any filling station within the City of Chicago.
- 75% of these cards will prioritize residents in community areas that face higher mobility hardship.
- The remaining 25% of cards will be distributed citywide in equal amounts to each ward.
- Applications for Chicago Moves will open on April 27, 2022, and cards will be distributed every month from May through September.
- The Lottery will be conducted in the second week of May – September. To be considered for each month’s lottery, applications must be submitted by the first day of that month.
