Touch n Go RFID pilot programme starts – we install the sticker and try out the new toll payment system

As reported, Touch n Go (TnG) has started the public pilot programme for the radio-frequency identification (RFID) system, a new electronic toll payment system that uses a sticker on the car to pass through toll gates. After physical TnG cards and the Smart Tag, RFID is the next step in electronic toll collection.

The RFID tag, which comes in the form of a sticker with a tiny grain-like chip (some would have noticed this on Uniqlo price tags and Decathlon product labels) and an antenna, “follows the car” and is registered/installed on one vehicle – unlike a Smart Tag that you can bring from car to car. Have two cars? Each will need its own RFID tag, which is linked to the owner’s Touch n Go eWallet app.

As the vehicle passes through the toll gate, an overhead scanner reads the radio-frequency from the RFID sticker and deducts the toll fare from the user’s eWallet.

To clarify, the eWallet is as advertised – it’s a digital wallet. And like your physical wallet, it only contains as much money as you put in, which is not all the money that you have in the bank. So, it’s not like Visa Paywave or in any way linked to your bank accounts. You’ll need to reload the TnG eWallet – put in RM100 and that’s what you will have in the eWallet, something that users of Boost or FavePay apps would be familiar with.

Reloading is a simple process and can be done in the app itself, anytime via credit card or online bank transfer (Maybank2U, CIMB Clicks, etc). You’ll never have to step into a petrol station TnG kiosk again, and there’s no reload fee for the eWallet too.

Back to the programme. Ahead of RFID’s launch in January 2019, TnG has kicked off a public pilot programme as scheduled, and our Hafriz Shah was among the first registrants to get their RFID tags installed. The trial, open to Klang Valley highway users who drive Class 1 vehicles (passenger cars, vans, 4x4s and pick-up trucks) with private registration, will allow for fine-tuning aspects and troubleshooting to be carried out.

Pilot programme users won’t need to pay for the RFID sticker, but they will still be required to pay toll charges as usual. The RFID lottery winners will need to set up an appointment to have the sticker installed by authorised staff, a process that should take no more than 15 minutes, taking into account the many questions users will ask the installers.

Chatting with the staff at TnG’s customer service centre at the NPE Pantai Dalam toll plaza yestrday, we were told that the pilot programme received overwhelming response – over 100,000 people applied to be among the first 10,000 RFID users.

Currently, each fitment centre is doing 60 cars per day (30 in the morning shift, 30 in the afternoon), but this will soon be ramped up to 100 cars a day. Besides NPE Pantai Dalam, there four other centres are at the Customer Experience Centre in Bangsar South, Kesas R&R Awan Besar, Besraya Loke Yew toll and MEX Salak Selatan toll.

At present, RFID lanes are present on 16 highways, with more to come. One can spot the RFID lanes via the “RFID Tag” logo, and there are three types of RFID lanes around – dedicated ones, and hybrid ones that also accept TnG cards and Smart Tags. What if you forget that RFID is fitted and you take out your Smart Tag out of habit? Hafriz tried exactly that and we can report that RFID takes priority and you won’t be double charged.

As you can see, the RFID sticker’s best location is on the car’s left headlamp. We assumed that the windscreen would be the ideal location, but were told that the sticker can’t be located near metal, which rules out the top of the windscreen and the side next to the A pillars, where most people place their road tax stickers. The signal “gun” used to test reception shows interference if the sticker is placed on the top/side of the windscreen. Window tint is a barrier for in-cabin placement of the sticker, literally.

Sticking the strip on the headlamp might be good for reception, but not for looks. Even though the sticker is transparent and can’t be seen from afar, it’s clearly visible upon closer inspection and does “scar” the appearance of the headlamps somewhat. It can potentially disrupt the operation of LED headlamps too – we saw an Audi A4 with Matrix LEDs coming back for sticker repositioning.

During our time there, we spotted only one car having the TnG RFID sticker placed on the windscreen, and that was only because the owner already had a similar type of RFID strip for his condominium access on the car’s left headlamp. Installation can only be done at authorised fitment centres because the test gun is needed to confirm that the sticker works. Should there be any issues or malfunction, TnG will issue a new sticker at no cost to pilot project participants.

Our man gave his consent, reluctantly, and the sticker now resides flush on his Merc’s LED headlamps. We were told that while “hybrid” stickers for glass and plastic exist, it’s best to standardise the placement. The sticker needs to reside on an angled surface, which makes headlamps ideal for 99% of cars on the road. I can imagine then that it will be tricky for vehicles with bluff front ends (Range Rover, Rolls-Royce) and pop-up headlamps (1990s sports cars), although that wouldn’t concern many.

If you’re thinking of DIY transplanting the sticker to another location yourself, don’t, because it’s designed to stop functioning once peeled. This also means that the sticker is of no use to thieves. If you lose it for some reason, a call to the TnG Careline to suspend the RFID will take care of things. The sticker is also claimed to be dirt, weather and waterproof.

After installation, TnG will send an SMS to the user within 24 hours to inform that the RFID has been activated. Our RFID guinea pig says that the system works as advertised so far, and he was able to coast through the toll gates without any fuss.

As expected, it takes some getting used to – as the familiar Smart Tag beep is absent and the display board doesn’t show eWallet remaining balance, just the toll charge – but one can breeze through the gates faster, and the gantry operates at a slightly faster speed.

By the way, our RFID’s detection range is 2m versus Smart Tag’s 1.5m. Active and battery-assisted RFID tags have greater range, but they require power and are more expensive. Our passive tags use radio energy transmitted by the toll booth readers.

Touch n Go RFID pilot programme starts – we install the sticker and try out the new toll payment system

So there you have it, our first hand experience of being among the first to install and use RFID toll payment in Malaysia. No more hiding away and taking out Smart Tags, no more 9V batteries, no more reloading TnG cards at petrol stations and ATMs, and hopefully smoother traffic at toll plazas.

We could all do with the added convenience and time saved, but will have to get used to checking eWallet balance (there should be low balance warning, we haven’t emptied the eWallet yet) and that RFID scar on our headlamps. Here’s one way to look at it: if everyone has the same scar, it becomes more the norm and less ugly – just like the BCG mark on everyone’s arms.

Overall, there are some restrictions we wish weren’t there, but it’s a step in the right direction for sure. What do you think of the TnG RFID system? Watch the video below and share with us your RFID experience in the comments. And no, your Smart Tag won’t become obsolete overnight come January 2019, although the process of phasing out the devices starts now.

    M’sia problem is the wide disparity between urban & rural. Look at how long it took for compulsory T&G card usage on PLUS.

    Even then, the min RM30 top up value was scrapped due to rural users maybe unable to afford it.

    So this RFID will be an urban thing & it’ll probably be another 20 years before rural drivers are forced to changed to RFID.

    What bullshit is this ?. Stick on the car headlight ?, are you out of your mind ?. I am pretty sure it will cause the shadow of the sticker pattern flashing out by the headlight beam. worst still if that car has an adaptive headlight, the shadow will follow as well… !!!!

    How about wear and tear of the sticker due to car washing, chemical or environment ?, do we need again pay for the replacement ?. Goodness.

    How about 4×4 just came out of jungle tracking with headlight covered with mud and sand. will it still work ?. That will cause the sticker to worn out quicker too.

        I’m smart because if we do a cost benefit analysis, it costs me to switch, but benefits TnG immensely, from money deposited direct into their wallets and less money needed to source outlets to service reloads, less operating costs. What’s in it for me? I only see a whole new round of costs with little to no benefit. Not that tolls are introducing boomless toll gates, like what they do in Australia.

      This is a long term plan. They want your sticker to be worn out because of washing, rain, heat, heat from the lamp, acid rain etc

      So that you can go back to them and they will charge you RM100 for a replacement.

Though i am not stealing, can you imagine if this person goes thru the toll, and it beeps because its missing. what does he do? though he gets a new replacement the next day or so, he would be troubling other motorist behind him . And whats stopping me from pulling it out again when he gets a replacement? The RFID should be something placed inside of the screen and not outside. This is ridiculous.

    • Compromising Tint on Sep 05, 2018 at 10:45 am

      I’m speculating here so just bear with me to see if you agree. The RFID stickers probably won’t work because most of us use non-standardized tint on our cars windshield. Otherwise the RFID sticker would have to be installed first before tinting our car and that would be really inconvenient. Don’t believe me? check out how often our Smart TAGs don’t work when passing through toll especially on heavily tinted (or metallic tint) cars. So don’t simply blame Touch & Go as it could be the best compromise they have at this moment. JPJ ask you to tint only 30% (70% VLT) for front windshield, you go an tint more… Anyways it’s still on trial period, so maybe still can be changed

    We need improvements on those of course.

Then again, placing another silly inconvenience project and call it enhancement to T&G/smartTag is plain stupidity.

    This seems like a great idea to expedite exiting a toll and of course payment.
    But I would like to highlight that paying toll is to avoid jam and make our driving experience smooth and fast but unfortunately as widely known and without much effort by the toll collector to improve traffic , if you use Puchong Toll, you will notice that all efforts are put in to collect tolls as fast as possible in the morning with numerous counters opened, only to be caught in the jam immediately after exiting.
    I feel annoyed and really felt like a sucker everytime i use this toll.
    My opinion is improve the traffic first before you even bother to come up with how fast you wanna collect your revenue.
    Do you even have the right to collect tolls if you have not even solve the traffic woes???

    Basically its free-for-all after u exit the toll eg Sunway LDP and NKVE Subang, most of the time not a single officer to help direct traffic, instead the operator let we all fighting to exit see who dares and who car bigger

    Malaysia Mentality, Itchy hand….

    I’m afraid people will peel off.

    Can’t we follow Taiwan system, stick the RFID on the windscreen from the inside cabin?

    or follow, Singapore, scan through Car registration plate?

    Why the video mentioned the RFID tag cannot install behind the windshield (with tint) ?
    RF can go through the windshield (tint or non-tint) without any problem, else all the car will become dead zone for your hand phone.
    California started to use the RFID FasTrak toll system in 1993. Their toll is gate-less and allows the car to travel up to 100km/h. The RFID tag is also kept behind the windshield. It is a matter of selecting the right technology.

    I’m trying hard to understand how does this RFID help in any way of reducing the traffic. What is the difference of using the Smart Tag ..when u have to also slow down and let the gate go up. You still end up slowing down.. PLEASE LA.. please look at Singapore.. ERP. Google it my dear Government. See how the ERP really eases traffic congestion. Motorist just drive as per normal (mind you..there is no slowing down) and it automatically deducts the toll. I cant see why wouldnt Malaysia adopt something like the ERP. be mindful, the same toll plazas can be used as the ERP structure with very minimal configurations. SIGH..

    This is the most amazingly stupid implementation of RFID I have ever seen. Who is the idiot who thought this up.

  • Why not use an ANPR system like they use for speed cameras? That’s what they are moving to for tolls in the UK – scans your number plate and charges your account automatically. A sticker is going to have serious durability problems.

    I am one of the RFID users. 1 problem detected: on 2 occasions while driving along Guthrie Corridor Expressway, the toll gates didn’t open on time. On both occasions, had to stop nearly 5 seconds before the toll gates lifted. TNG needs to rectify this problem.

  • Sticker on headlamp – looks like a bad idea. Like many here who pointed out,
    1.)It’s so easy for casual vandalism.
    2.)Being exposed to the elements in harsh weather how long can something like a flimsy sticker last?
    Please look and learn at the in-car solutions used in Singapore and elsewhere.

  • i would prefer build in smart tag in my car rather than this rfid. The toucn n go card can use for many things.

    Unmark police car sticked the rfid stiker inside the wind screen. Seems worked !!. But sometimes in certain places (i think only one but dont rember where) u have to go very near to the bar.

  • Registered 3 cars for the installation but only 1 detachable.
    Used at Kesas and LDP, 8 out of 10 times failed. Only NPE achieved 100%.
    Decided to revert back to Smartag:(

    I got mine installed at the front windscreen on the passenger side. It definitely looks better to install at that spot.

    1. TnG e-wallet which link with RFID should have the option for auto reload like smart tag. If not, it is not perfect system. Just imagine when one need to travel all the way from Perlis to Johor.
    2. Does the RFID sticker work on head lamp which already been fitted with a plastic film protection.
