No, Autosweep RFID hasn’t forgotten. While EasyTrip, the exclusive tag issuer of Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation-operated expressways has the leg up when it comes to RFID interconnectivity, San Miguel Corporation-owned Autosweep says interoperability from their end isn’t far behind.
While Autosweep is often regarded as the better of the two RFID systems in the country, they admit they’ve lagged behind when it comes to interoperability. Intelligent E-Processes Technologies Corporation (IETC), a part of SMC Infrastructure says they are working on a unified toll collection system for faster, more convenient, and safer travel for all motorists. Although no exact timeline was given, they did say that they’re working to deliver this at the “soonest possible time.”
In the meantime, IETC and SMC Tollways reminds motorists that that the EasyTrip RFID cannot be used on any of the SMC-operated roll roads: Skyway, NAIAX, SLEX, STAR, and TPLEX.
On the other hand, the Autosweep RFID can be used at MPTC-operated expressways: NLEX, CAVITEX, C5 Link, CALAX, and SCTEX for as long as steps have been done to apply for interconnectivity.
With around two weeks before all expressways stop accepting cash payments, have you applied for your RFID yet? If not, check out the list of RFID stickering locations below:
