IDFC FASTag Agency
FASTag is a device that uses Radio Frequencies Identification (RFID) technology to make toll payments directly from the prepaid account linked to it. It is affixed to the windscreen of the vehicle and enables the users to drive through toll plazas without stopping for cash transactions. The tag has a validity of 5 years and one only needs a FASTag recharge to top up the tag as per requirement.
