How mobile top-up works
You can top up your M50 tag balance from your smartphone using the official tag app, SMS top-up (if available to your account), or by calling our support line for assisted top-up. Below are recommended steps and tips to complete a secure transaction.
1. Install the app
Download the tag app and sign in with your tag number and email.
2. Add payment
Register your card or mobile wallet in the app for one-tap payments.
3. Confirm & travel
Top-up confirms instantly in most cases — drive as usual through toll gates.
Note
Keep your tag number (RFID ID) and vehicle registration handy. App top-ups are fastest; phone top-ups may incur handling delay.
