Fastag can be purchased from any issuing bank like ICICI Bank and mobile payment apps like PhonePe. Once you purchase a Fastag for your vehicle, you have to install it on the windshield of your vehicle from inside. Radio Frequency Identification technology i.e RFID is used in all Fastag devices including ICICI Bank Fastag. Through this RFID technology, the exchange of waves is done between the scanners at the toll plazas and the Fastag device. Once the scanners at the toll plazas scan your Fastag device, all the information about your vehicle is obtained and the toll payment is made automatically.
