Reloadable cards, such as London's Oyster Card, require a deposit, subtract the cost of your rides when you use it, and can be topped off when the balance runs low.
You can buy tickets, passes, and cards at subway ticket machines or windows, and, depending on the city, on the bus (usually for exact change and at a slightly higher cost than the ticket-machine price), at newsstands, or in tourist offices. Ask about discounts if you're young, old, or traveling with children.

Contactless cards in the USA are currently issued by American Express and Capital One. They work similar to Apple Pay and Android pay, you just tap the card to pay for small purchases. They’re very common in the UK.
If you have Apple Pay or Android Pay, that can be used to pay tube fares. But, each person needs their own payment method, except for kids.
Otherwise, buy an Oyster card at Gatwick and just use pay per go, you can get a refund of the £5 deposit plus up to £5 of unused fares when you leave or keep it for the next trip.
