MetroCard's Last Swipe: OMNY Takes Over

New York Citys MetroCard, a beloved yet frustrating fare payment method, is retiring after thirty-four years of service. The MTA is shifting to the contactless OMNY system, which stands for One Metro New York. The MetroCard, introduced in the nineties, gained traction with free transfers and unlimited passes, drawing riders in droves. It became a symbol of subway street cred, even tripping up big names like Hillary Clinton. The card transformed transit, spiking ridership and saving riders millions in fares. Old MetroCards with remaining value will work until June, giving holdouts time to use them up. OMNY, while lacking those handy thirty-day unlimited passes for now, marks the end of an era.
