NHAI launches mobile apps for electronic toll collection - MyFASTag and FASTag Partner

The two apps MyFASTag and FASTag Partner will facilitate the availability of FASTags for electronic toll collection making it possible to buy or recharge FASTags online, an NHAI statement said.

MyFASTag is a consumer App that can be downloaded from the App Store for both Android and iOS systems. A consumer can purchase or recharge FASTags on this App. The App also helps to keep track of transactions and provides for online grievance redressal.

FASTag Partner is a merchant App. Agencies like Common Services Centre, banking partners and vehicle dealers can sell and enroll FASTag through this App. In addition to this, the App can also be used to activate the RFID tags that came built in with around 74 lakh cars in the country following the 2013 Gazette Notification in this regard. These RFID tags are already fixed on the cars but are dormant. This App will convert these RFID tags into ETC Tag (FASTag).

The NHAI chairman also said that from October 1, all lanes of all 371 NHAI toll plazas in the country will become FASTag enabled. "One lane in every toll plaza will be dedicated FASTag lane where no other form of payment will be accepted. The other lanes, though FASTag enabled, can accept other forms of payment too"

Installed the first one, and it has ads!! Government app with ads, go figure. Also the UI is pathetic!!

Maybe it works like toll Booth.
Government gives the contract to a company to build the road and tells them to collect toll to recover their money + profit.

The same way Government must have told the app developers "show ads and take your money"

They have updated the app and removed the ads. Still the application is pathetic. Just redirects to the respective web pages.
