Total pay is as the Summary Compensation Table states it; actually paid revalues the year’s share awards

shares at the start of the earliest year shown was worth at each year’s end.

CLEAR Secure is an identity company that helps people verify who they are in physical and digital settings. Its best-known service, CLEAR+, is a paid travel subscription that lets members use dedicated entry lanes at airport security checkpoints. Members verify their identity and travel credentials using biometric technology, with CLEAR employees available to assist them. Caryn Seidman Becker is its chief executive.
CLEAR also provides TSA PreCheck enrollment and renewal services, a concierge service that guides travelers from the curb to their gate, and a free mobile app with travel information and digital identity features. CLEAR does not perform physical security screening for TSA PreCheck; that remains the TSA’s responsibility.
