===Unlimited MetroCard===
{{As of|2023}}, four types of Unlimited-ride MetroCards are sold:
* 7-Day Unlimited Ride Card, $34<ref name="mta.info">{{cite web|url=https://new.mta.info/fares|title=mta.info – MetroCard: Fares|work=mta.info}}</ref> for unlimited subway and local bus rides until midnight on the seventh day following first usage.
* 30-Day Unlimited Ride Card, $132<ref name="mta.info"/> for unlimited subway and local bus rides until midnight on the thirtieth day following first usage.
* 7-Day Express Bus Plus Card, $64<ref name="mta.info"/> for unlimited express bus, local bus, and subway rides until midnight on the seventh day following first usage.
* 30-Day [[AirTrain (JFK)|AirTrain JFK]] Unlimited Ride Card, $40 for unlimited trips on the AirTrain (operated by the [[Port Authority of New York and New Jersey]]) until midnight on the thirtieth day from first usage. This card can only be purchased at specially marked MetroCard Vending Machines at the [[Howard Beach–JFK Airport (IND Rockaway Line)|Howard Beach–JFK Airport]] ({{NYCS trains|Rockaway north|time=box}}) or [[Sutphin Boulevard–Archer Avenue–JFK Airport (New York City Subway)|Sutphin Boulevard–Archer Avenue–JFK Airport]] ({{NYCS trains|Archer|time=box}}) stations and at MetroCard vendors in JFK Airport. There are no transfer privileges with this card as it only works on the AirTrain. This is the only unlimited card accepted on the AirTrain.

Any Unlimited Ride Card cannot be used at the same subway station or bus route for 18 minutes after it is swiped. Every MetroCard can be refilled in increments of 7 or 30 days' worth of unlimited ride time, or with pay-per-ride value, but time is used before value unless the time on the card cannot be applied to the ride taken. The 7 Day Express Bus Plus card is the only unlimited card that can be used on express buses. Unlimited rides cannot be applied to non-MTA transit systems such as the PATH or AirTrain JFK; to use these systems that require a value-based fare, riders can load money on their Unlimited Ride MetroCard by selecting "Add Value" when refilling at a MetroCard Vending Machine or at a station booth. Turnstiles for these systems will simply deduct the fare from the value portion of the MetroCard. 30-Day Unlimited and 7-Day Express Bus Plus Cards that are purchased using a credit, debit or ATM card from a MetroCard vending machine can be reported lost or stolen to receive a pro-rated credit for the card.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://mta.info/metrocard/balanceprotection.htm |title=Insurance for 30-Day MetroCard|publisher=New York City Transit}}</ref>

Standard 7- and 30-day unlimited cards are accepted on MTA New York City Subway; non-express buses from either the MTA, NICE, or Bee-Line; the Roosevelt Island Tramway; and the Staten Island Railway. 7-Day Express Bus Plus is accepted on MTA express buses. The AirTrain JFK only accepts the Unlimited AirTrain JFK card.
