KUALA LUMPUR: The public will soon be able to pay highway tolls using any digital payment provider and not just Touch 'n Go, says Works Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.

The Touch ‘n Go card for highway tolling would also be retired in 2025 and the SmartTag lane to be phased out, he said in an interview with news portal"Soon, it will be up to the public to use any digital mode of payment – whether you want to use Touch ‘n Go eWallet, debit or credit card, or Visa or Mastercard or any kind of payment system, as long as there’s a link available on a highway," he was quoted as saying.

"We have been listening to the people’s demand to open more and we are aware that people have been complaining that they have to pay in advance for Touch ‘n Go whether they are using or not," he said. The MLFF system uses a gantry structure equipped with automated number plate recognition at specific locations.

"The private investment model is for an open system. As you can see there are many highways in the country and all the systems need to be integrated. If we look at Singapore and Taiwan, they have single authority control ," he said.
