Touch ‘n Go has announced that its PayDirect system is now available on the Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP). This brings the number of highways that are PayDirect-enabled to 11, with five more due to be added in the near future.
Just to recap, PayDirect allows users to link up to three Touch n’ Go cards to their eWallet app. Once linked, the toll fare will automatically be deducted from the eWallet whenever a linked card is used at a toll booth (either by tapping it on a reader or by using a SmartTAG), without any deductions on the physical card itself.
If the eWallet has insufficient funds, only then will the fare be deducted from the physical card’s balance. However you can preserve the balance on the card if you enable the auto-reload feature in the eWallet. Reloading the eWallet is done through the phone app via credit or debit card, online banking or TNG Reload PINs with no additional fees.
With LDP now added to the list, the next highways to adopt PayDirect would be the Besraya Experessway (BESRAYA), Kuala Lumpur-Karak Expressway (KLK), New Pantai Expressway (NPE), Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS) and Western KL Traffic Dispersal System (SPRINT).
Besides the LDP, PayDirect is currently available on Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE), Kemuning-Shah Alam Highway (LKSA), the Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART), Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), Kajang Dispersal Link Experessway (SILK), Maju Expressway (MEX), Lebuhraya Grand Sepadu (GRANDSEPADU), Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Kuala Lumpur-Kuala Selangor Expressway (LATAR) and Cheras-Kajang Highway (GRANDSAGA).

People complained, some rather rudely, when they first introduced the app and this is not a feature yet.
Slowly wins the race people.
Can you put the paydirect linked TnG card into a smart tag device?
I tried and I got a ‘Card Tidak Sah’ at the gantry when I tried to pass through the smart tag lane…
Will Pay Direct be extended to the use of MRT / KTM / LRT as well in future ?
Still waiting for PayDirect on NS Hiway.
When PLUS tag was introduced , everyone was Happy as it was CONVENIENT but EXPENSIVE ( Tag was $$$ but quality SUCKS !!! ).Now there are So many wa
So, when everyone use the PayDirect, agak2 how much money in the TnG float account?
Why can’t they just top up the balance in the physical card using e-wallet? It’s gonna be a hassle to make claims to your employer for working travels if the statement of transactions is separated between the physical card & the e-wallet.
Generate and email the statement from ewallet app to yourself. That statement will contain both direct pay and normal transactions.
from touch n go apps issues i can see a lot…a lot of people just read the tagline and the keep complaining
Why not merge Pay Direct/T&G with RFID into 1 App? If Grab Food can merge with Grab App, so can this.
At the end of the day, it makes no logical nor business sense to have 2 separate payments App from 1 company.
