My company will pay for a Commuter pass for a month but I need to calculate how much the commuter pass will be. Is there somewhere I can order a Commuter pass online just to see the price?
With the chip shortage, it seems you cannot buy one at a ticket machine.
I found the site below and a bunch of others but I can only us it to calculate the one-time charge and since there’s a discount with the Commuter pass, I can’t just enter the one time charge times 60. http://www.hyperdia.com/en/

Go to the commuter pass machine at the station. Put in your info, and it will tell you the price.
I usually use Yahoo transit site and select commuter pass option.

Search your route after selecting 定期代. Voila.

There’s a commuter pass button on hyperdia.
Check on the website of the railway company you’ll be using.
One month is usually about the price of 35 one way tickets but it varies depending on the company (or companies) and route.
Usually the prices of commuter passes are also shown on the website of the company. So for example if you take Meitetsu you can just google 名鉄 定期券 and it should pop up.
Navitime shows pass prices.
You go to https://transit.yahoo.co.jp/, enter your route including your transfer points, confirm it’s correct, and then click the `定期券` button on the result that shows the route you plan to take.
You actually can use the hyperdia website. There’s a specific button you have to click after searching your home station to your work station. It’ll say “commuter pass” and gives you the info for 1, 3, and 6 months.
