What are accepted payments on MTA Buses?

As a rider, you should know that dollar bills, pennies, and half-dollar coins are not accepted on MTA Buses. When poossible, riders should try to use MetroCards which provide savings on travel.

If you are a senior citizen or is disabled, you may qualify for a discount on the MTA’s bus fares so keep this in mind. Need more advice?
