Smart, MPTC enable Easytrip RFID reloading via text message

Motorists can now top up their Easytrip RFID account by simply sending a text message.

According to Smart Communications, it has partnered with Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC) to introduce a “simpler and easier way of reloading the Easytrip RFID using the country’s first toll top-up via mobile load service.”

Smart and TNT subscribers can now reload their Easytrip RFID accounts anytime and anywhere by texting EASY[DENOM]<SPACE>[12-DIGIT RFID ACCOUNT NUMBER] to 3279.

The denominations come in PHP100, PHP300, PHP500, or PHP1,000, which will be deducted from their prepaid airtime balance if they are a Smart Prepaid or TNT subscriber, or shall be charged to their monthly bill if they are a Smart Postpaid customer.

Subscribers shall receive a text message for every successful transaction, and the amount will be immediately credited to their Easytrip RFID accounts.

The Easytrip RFID can be used at the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX), Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), the Manila-Cavite Expressway (CAVITEX), Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX), and C-5 South Link Expressway. – RC, GMA News
