ICICI Bank FASTag & How does It Work?

A small rectangular tag with 10×5 cm dimensions, ICICI Bank FASTag enables an electronic and automated deduction of charges at toll plazas. The ICICI FASTag device consists of a chip and antenna inside its layers and is created using high-grade paper. This tag makes use of Radio-frequency Identification (RFID) technology for its functioning. The ICICI Bank FASTag is linked straight to the user’s prepaid account and the toll charges are deducted from this account automatically.

With an active ICICI FASTag, a user need not stop at the toll plazas. Once the tag is activated, it is affixed with the windscreen of the vehicle. Thus, when you pass through the assigned FASTag lanes at the toll plaza, the tag readers in the lane read your ICICI Bank FASTag and then deduct the relevant toll charge.

The ICICI FASTag device can be used at various toll stations that have a FASTag lane. The tag can be recharged as per the requirement of a person using an ICICI Credit Card or Debit Card, NEFT, UPI and Net Banking. ICICI bank also gives the user access to a FASTag customer portal where they can access their account anywhere and anytime.
