Linking UPI To Your Car
To use the ‘pay by car’ feature, users need to follow a few simple steps. First, they must link their UPI ID to their car’s infotainment screen. Additionally, it’s essential to have a FASTag installed on the vehicle. Once these prerequisites are met, paying for fuel becomes a breeze, and there’s no need for physical cards or smartphones.
The Paying Process
Automatic Identification: When a vehicle arrives at a fuel station, the car’s infotainment system displays the fuel dispenser number, informing the driver of their location. Simultaneously, this information is relayed to the fuel station staff for seamless service.
Entering Transaction Amount: After refueling, users only need to enter the transaction amount announced through the infotainment system’s soundbox. This step completes the online transaction, ensuring a hassle-free payment process.
Additional Features
FASTag Recharge: Beyond fuel payments, the ‘pay by car’ feature also facilitates FASTag recharges. Drivers can check their FASTag balance directly on the car’s infotainment screen, enhancing their overall payment convenience.
Conversational Payments: ToneTag’s commitment to innovation extends to conversational payments on UPI, a feature recently unveiled at the Global Fintech Fest. This new development allows users to transfer funds using voice commands, further streamlining digital transactions.
Voice-Based Offline Payments: ToneTag’s versatility is showcased by its voice-based offline payments for feature phones. Users simply call the IVR number, select the ‘Pay to Merchant’ option, and complete the transaction by tapping their mobile phone on the merchant device (POD). This user-friendly method ensures offline payments are just as accessible as online ones.
In conclusion, ToneTag’s ‘pay by car’ feature is revolutionizing fuel payments by integrating UPI with your car’s infotainment system and FASTag. With added innovations like conversational payments and voice-based offline transactions, ToneTag is making digital payments more accessible and user-friendly than ever before. Say goodbye to the inconvenience of carrying cards or smartphones at the fuel station – your car has you covered.
