    The MTA will begin phasing out the MetroCard next May. Here's a first look at what's coming to replace it...http://gothamist.com/2018/06/13/nyc_subway_contactless_payment.php …

        Such a terrible idea, cutting out the large chunk of the population that doesn't have smartphones.

        Can you do a follow-up on how poor people are supposed to use the subway? Or what happens when someone’s phone dies? What answers do they have?

        That's kinda fucked up... not everyone has the luxury of owning a smartphone. Guess they have until 2023 to get one

        The people who hover around the entrances pantomiming a swipe that they need will soon have a waaaay more complex gesture to make.

        The MTA couldn't think of anywhere else to better spend $573 million?

        I look forward to the HOPE hacker conference in NYC having talks on how the new #MTA payment system has been hacked.

        i’ll probably use the tap card instead, my phone battery is dead/dying most of the time. but it would be nice to be able to reload funds remotely

        So glad the MTA continues to allocate funds where needed. Joe Lhota is incompetent and rehiring him shows how bad Cuomo's judgment is.

        the only good thing I see about this, is an app you can reload your funds on remotely. That is a feature we do need, but this ideal otherwise is exclusionary and unneeded.

        Well I don’t know any cellphone that doesn’t lose charge yet or a tiny possibility it could go crazy just when your about to scan?

        Your cell phone better not run out of power? Or you’ll be super late for work.
