What is Pay by Car?: With the help of this feature, you will be able to make payment for filling diesel-petrol and recharging Fastag directly from your car. Let us know what is Pay by Car and how it works…
The world of fintech is constantly changing. It has completely changed the way payments and transactions are made in the last few years. Due to continuous innovation, many unique products are emerging. One such product has emerged, which is offering ‘Pay by Car’ feature. Under this, you will not need a card or cash to fill petrol and diesel in your car or to recharge Fastag, rather your car will make the payment automatically.
He started this feature
This unique initiative has been introduced by Amazon and ToneTag, which is being called Pay by Car Technology. ToneTag is supported by MasterCard. In this initiative, UPI is integrated with the car’s infotainment system. Whether payment has to be made for filling fuel in the car or for Fastag recharge, after that the payment will be done directly through the infotainment system of the car.
Successful trial of feature was done
According to an ET report, MG Hector and Bharat Petroleum together recently conducted a successful trial of this solution. In the trial, it was shown how digital payment can be made even without a smartphone, that too directly from the car. In this way, it can be said that this facility is going to start a new era of digital payments in the coming days, in which smartphone work will be possible directly from the car.
How does Pay by Car feature work?
In this feature of ToneTag, first of all UPI is integrated with the infotainment system of your car. Now suppose you have to fill petrol in your car. For this, as soon as you reach the petrol pump, the pump staff will be told through the speaker installed in the car that there is a need to fill petrol in your car. The pump staff fills the fixed amount of petrol. You decide the amount on your infotainment system and payment is made from it. In this way, payment without contact becomes possible easily.
Fastag can also be recharged
The facilities of Pay by Car are not limited to filling diesel-petrol in the car only. With this you can also recharge your Fastag. You can check the remaining balance in Fastag on the screen of the car’s infotainment system and whenever you want, you can add more money to it through recharge.
This initiative of NPCI will help
Let us tell you that NPCI has recently announced many new features to increase the use of UPI. Apart from UPI Lite, Conversational UPI is prominent among them. ToneTac’s Pay by Car facility is based on conversational UPI.
