Fare
The current fare is $2.25 ($1.10 for seniors and disabled customers), and can be paid with the MTA's MetroCard (including unlimited cards) or coins. Students with ID receive a discount of $0.25 from the base fare. Dollar bills are not accepted on any NICE fixed-route buses. Transfers are available upon request with coins, and are included automatically with MetroCard. The transfers are valid for two hours and can be used on two connecting NICE routes. They are also valid on Suffolk County Transit, Long Beach Bus, or Huntington Area Rapid Transit (HART) with the following restrictions:
- Transfers to non-MetroCard buses are with coins only.
- Transfers to the New York City Subway, or New York City Bus or MTA Bus express service, are available with MetroCard only (express buses require additional fare).
- Transfers from Suffolk Transit/HART or Long Beach Bus require payment of a "step-up" fare, which is the difference between the base fares of the systems.
The Able-Ride paratransit fare is $3.75, payable in Able-Ride tickets or exact fare.
