NYC Metro Card Balance Check

In NYC, alot is happening, alot of the time. So much, that its hard to keep track of everything. Getting around NYC is easy with a NYC Metro card, but the only way to manage and see your balance is if you have to go to a subway station.  I want to provide a way to do it from your home, while youre at a restaurant about to leave, from anywhere you are with an app. The money I need will go towards creating this NYC Metro Card Balance App that will allow people to check their card balance. It will be the first one of its kind, therefore I do not want to make a way to deposit or transfer money or anything, I simply just want to make an app that allows you to check the balance of your NYC Metro Card.
