Q: How long does a TranSleev™ farecard holder last?

A: TranSleev™ MetroCard™/Farecard holders are made entirely from durable virgin PVC, with an overall thickness of .050″. Thousands of customers in our initial test market of Washington, DC have used TranSleev™ MetroCard™/Farecard holders for over five years. Three sides of each sheet of the holder are heat-sealed, making TranSleev™ virtually indestructible.

Q: How is the farecard’s magstripe protected?

A: With no holes, hinges, or folds, TranSleev™ MetroCard™/Farecard holders provide your farecard with strong protection from scratching against other embossed credit cards in tight wallets or purses. The magstripe is thus protected against mis-readings at subway turnstiles.
