IF I USE A RELOADABLE OMNY CARD, HOW LONG IS THAT CARD GOOD FOR? There is no OMNY app yet, but the MTA is currently projecting to launch one sometime in 2023. Note: OMNY cards are $5 each before fares are added.
Reloadable, prepaid OMNY card: You can purchase a prepaid OMNY card at retail locations on this map. 
Credit/debit card with microchip: Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover, UnionPay, and JCB are all currently accepted. Your smart phone or smart watch: you can pay via your phone's digital wallet (via Google or Apple Pay). Say goodbye to the swipe, and hello to tap-and-go. IS THERE A CARD, IS IT ON MY PHONE, DO I NEED TO SWIPE SOMETHING? Scanners are currently installed and operating at all subway stations and on all MTA-operated buses. At that point, your MetroCard will become a relic, just like the token before it. That will bring up a map indicated where buses are located.While you can use OMNY now (it began rolling out in 2019), it won't be mandatory until sometime in 2024. To use the system from a computer or smart phone, click here and enter a bus route, intersection, street address, landmark, or bus stop code. 
More than 15,000 stops are part of the Bus Time system citywide, and 5,500 buses are operating with enhanced GPS systems that help power the service. "As we have seen with train arrival information in the subway, customers appreciate when they know when that train or bus will show up at the station or stop." "MTA Bus Time is yet another way we are trying to improve service for our customers," said Carmen Bianco, President of MTA New York City Transit.
