Explanation:
here "cap" means the maximum amount that a customer will be charged per day to use the "Myki" system in Australia. For example, if you have $20 on your smart card, and each ride is $1 and the cap is $10, you will only pay $10 even if you ride 20 times.

سقف موجودی، حداکثر موجودی


Explanation:
"Weekend daily cap myki money" means

سقف موجودی ِ روزانه ی میکی مانی برای تعطیلات آخر هفته

http://www.myki.com.au/About-myki/myki-products/myki-money/m...

Here, you can see another definition related to "cap":

The "Oyster daily price cap" is the maximum you will pay if you use your Oyster card to make journeys during the day.

http://www.ukstudentlife.com/Travel/Transport/London/Undergr...

While the meaning of "cap" is close to "ticket", they are different from each other. Ticket is a paper that you charge a price for it, but cap is the maximum value "capped" or specified for a especial journey program in a Myki card or other such cards.

Maybe the more exact equivalents is:
سقف ِ پرداختی
It requires a discussion to decide the best and most accurate translation.

Example sentence(s):
  • If you have made several journeys on the same day, the amount you pay is capped at the cost of a one-day travelcard (there are two different caps, depending on whether your first journey was made during peak or off-peak times)
  • Weekend daily cap (full fare and concession myki holders can travel in Zone 1 and 2 on a Saturday or Sunday for $3.00).
