Why not use the smartlink card? You can load numbers of trips instead of a dollar amount

And it comes out cheaper if you use path a lot.

I have one. I was using the MetroCard for the subway in NYC.

You can use tap to pay and not have to deal with the metrocards

Metrocard wont even be an option for either transit system soon, anyway

I’ve done that a few times and will using the tap method exclusively once I figure out how to get a zero balance on my MetroCard or just give up on it eventually.
