How to Buy FASTag and Recharge it

How often do we realize the ease that FASTag have provided to our lives. No more diving into our wallets and bags to find the exact change to pay at the toll plaza, or getting honked endlessly till we receive the balance from the booth operator. Simply add money to the FASTag as per the trip and sail smoothly across, without a hitch.

This is why, the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways or MoRTH introduced FASTag in 2014, to speed up the process of paying toll taxes and avoiding long queues.

Now, if you are looking to buy FASTag online or top-up your current one, then this is the right place to know everything about the same. 

What is a FASTag?

FASTag is a toll collection system that requires fixing a tag on the vehicle’s windscreen. This tag is read using the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology and the amount of toll tax gets deducted from the account linked with your FASTag. 

The use of FASTags became mandatory from December 1, 2019 onwards. Today, over 1,200 toll plazas have been established under the FASTag program, offering ease of movement for travelers. 

Why use FASTag?

There are several reasons why you must own a NETC FASTag for your vehicle:

  • Helps avoid slow traffic and congestion by removing manual toll payment that consumes relatively more time. 
  • Saves fuel that is wasted on a stationary car stuck in heavy traffic. 
  • SMS alerts keep the consumers updated about all the toll payments.
  • Removes the need to carry cash for the tolls. 
  • Curbs concentration of air pollution in a particular area.
  • Saves paper against the requirement of a physical toll receipt.
