===Toll fare=== {{main|Malaysian Expressway System#List of expressways and highways in Malaysia}} Touch 'n Go can be used on entire highway stretches in Malaysia with the familiar TnG & TAG sign marked on the road. Two systems were introduced for toll fare collection instead of manual tickets. Due to highways with numerous junctions or intersections serving short-distance trips, most of Malaysia's highways use open system toll collection. ====Toll fare collection on open system==== Card users only have to touch the reader at Touch 'n Go lane counters or drive-through SmartTAG lanes at certain toll plazas. Toll fares charged are fixed regardless of the distance travelled. ====Toll fare collection on closed system==== Card users "touch in" before entering the expressway at respective toll plazas and "touch out" at the exit toll plaza. Vehicle with cards have to drive thru TnG lanes and TAG lanes for SmartTAG users. Toll fares are charged based on the distance between the entry plaza and the exit plaza. Card users have to make sure the amount balance is more than RM20 before entering the toll plaza. Those with less than RM20 are required to top it up either at the offices or at TAMBAH NILAI lanes, otherwise they are unable to enter the highway. Seven expressways have the feature; the most famous is the North–South Expressway. ====SmartTAG==== {{Main|SmartTAG}} An extension of Touch 'n Go is the [[SmartTAG]] or TAG onboard unit, which allows users to insert the card into a reader device installed in the vehicle for fully automatic/non-stop payment at toll plazas. Payment is made automatically as the toll charge is deducted from the value stored in the Touch 'n Go card. ====Electronic toll collection systems==== There are three types of the [[electronic toll collection]] (ETC) systems, Touch 'n Go card unit, [[Smart TAG]] onboard unit and RFID tag. Touch 'n Go and Smart TAG have been made compulsory in all expressways since 1 July 2004, following the instruction of the Works Minister, [[Samy Vellu|Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu]]. Other electronic payment systems that were previously used by other highway operators such as PLUS TAG for all [[PLUS Expressways Berhad|PLUS expressways network]], Express TAG for [[Shah Alam Expressway]], FasTrak for [[Damansara–Puchong Expressway]] and [[Sprint Expressway]] and SagaTag in [[Cheras–Kajang Expressway]], were abolished in a move to standardise the electronic payment method. {| class="wikitable sortable" style="margin-left:1em; margin-bottom:1em; color:black; font-size:95%;" | ! colspan="2" ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:white; background-color:green;" |Other expressway concessionaries ! colspan="5" ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:white; background-color:green;" |PLUS Expressways |- ! rowspan="2" |Electronic toll collection systems vs Payment method ! rowspan="2" |''{{TnG}}'' ''{{TAG}}'' ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:purple;" |''{{TnG}}'' ! rowspan="2" |''{{TnG}}'' ''{{TAG}}'' ! colspan="2" ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:purple;" |''{{TnG}}'' ! rowspan="2" ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:purple;" |''PLUS RFiD'' |- ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:purple;" |''[[MyRFiD|<span style="padding:1px .5em;color:purple;background-color:white;display:inline-block;text-align:center;line-height:18px;border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px;font-weight:bold;">''MyRFiD''</span>]]'' ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:purple;" |''[[MyRFiD|<span style="padding:1px .5em;color:purple;background-color:white;display:inline-block;text-align:center;line-height:18px;border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px;font-weight:bold;">''MyRFiD''</span>]]'' ! style="padding:1px .5em; color:purple;" |''VEP RFiD'' |- |Touch 'n Go Card <br>- Generic Card <br>- Corporate Card <br>- Auto-reload Card | align=center | ✔ | | align=center | ✔ | | | |- |[[Touch 'n Go eWallet]] | align=center | ✔ <small>Toll fare will be deducted from eWallet balance via PayDirect</small> | align=center | ✔ <small>Toll fare will be deducted from eWallet balance via PayDirect</small> | align=center | X <small>PayDirect not activated</small> | align=center | ✔ <small>Toll fare will be deducted from eWallet balance via PayDirect</small> | align=center | • <small>''VEP enforcement deferred until further notice''</small> | align=center | • <small>''will be extended to open and closed system nationwide after fully launch''</small> |- |Bank Card (Debit/Credit) | | | | | | align=center | ✔<small>''under pilot test on open system''</small> |- |''Notes'' |<small>''[[List of expressways and highways in Malaysia|Nationwide toll collection]] on open and closed system'' <br>For PayDirect, if your eWallet are insufficient, your toll fares will be deducted from your Touch 'n Go Card balance.</small> |<small>''RFID tag issuance by Touch 'n Go for Malaysian registered vehicle.''</small> |<small>''[[List of expressways and highways in Malaysia|Nationwide toll collection]] on open and closed system''</small> |<small>''[[List of expressways and highways in Malaysia|Nationwide toll collection]] on open and closed system''</small> |<small>''RFID tag issuance by Touch 'n Go for foreign registered vehicle currently available at Johor checkpoints.''</small> |<small>''RFID tag issuance by [[PLUS Expressways]].''</small> |} ''TNG card and TNG ewallet balances are non-transferable.
