When an ally presses the jump button above a Jump Pad, the player's jump height and distance are increased. The user's momentum depends on the momentum they had beforehand. A player can still walk or jump onto a Jump Pad without receiving the boost. The Jump Pad itself is solid, and players are slightly elevated while walking on top of it. Enemies can walk on top of the Jump Pad, but jumping on it only produces a standard jump. The [[Spy]] can use Jump Pads belonging to any team, regardless of whether he is disguised. | When an ally presses the jump button above a Jump Pad, the player's jump height and distance are increased.

Compared to the Teleporter, the cooldown on the Jump Pad is significantly shorter, so players are able to use it in short succession. The cooldown is per-user and not per Jump Pad, meaning multiple users will not affect each other's usage, and using two Jump Pads will not circumvent the user's own cooldown. If the user is on two Jump Pads at once, the animation plays on the one the user walked on first. The Jump Pad also works even in situations where the user wouldn't be able to jump, such as while crouching, while the [[Heavy]] has his minigun revved up, or while in the middle of a jump; however, it will not work while taunting. The user can continually hold the jump button to receive the Jump Pad boost. The user also does not suffer fall damage from the boost. | Compared to the Teleporter, the cooldown on the Jump Pad is significantly shorter, so players are able to use it in short succession.
