An RFID sticker is free-of-charge, but you have to cash out between PHP200 to PHP500 for the initial load.

If you frequently travel along these expressways, I recommend you get your RFID sticker for a seamless, worry-free journey. Here's a complete guide:



What is RFID?

The RFID stickers or tags, usually attached onto a vehicle’s windshield or headlights, connect via radio waves to an electronic device from the toll plaza that reads the data stored on the stickers. When a vehicle with a sticker passes within the vicinity of an electronic reader, the reader picks up the sticker data and relays it to a software system that tracks the activity of vehicles. RFIDs are designed to ensure a smooth ride and seamless experience for drivers as it lessens the time a vehicle waits in a toll booth.


Easytrip and Autosweep RFIDs

Currently, we have two providers of RFIDs on our expressways: Easytrip and Autosweep RFIDs. NLEX only accepts Easytrip, though you may also enroll your Autosweep by registering it for a separate profile. Once registered, your RFID sticker can now carry two wallets – one for Autosweep and another for Easytrip.


Easytrip RFIDs are usable at the following expressways:

North Luzon Expressway (NLEx)
Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx)
Manila-Cavite Expressway (Cavitex)
C5-SouthLink Expressway
Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAx)


... while Autosweep can be used at:

Skyway System
South Luzon Expressway (SLEx)
NAIA Expressway (NAIAx)
STAR Tollway

Finding ease in Manila's daily traffic with Green GSM

In Metro Manila, movement is constant, but certainty is rare. Traffic congestion, fluctuating fuel prices, and long working hours shape the daily routines of drivers and passengers alike. In this environment, trust is built quietly. For some, electric taxis are becoming part of that process, not as a dramatic shift but as a practical way to bring more balance to daily work and travel. Making a Living on Manila’s Roads Driving for a living in Manila has always involved trade-offs. Income can vary from week to week, operating costs are hard to control, and long hours on busy roads leave little room for planning. For many drivers, these pressures have prompted them to explore electric vehicles as a way to manage expenses and working hours more effectively. Benedick Ferreras , a Metro Manila driver who had never driven an electric vehicle before, said his decision was shaped by everyday considerations rather than the technology itself. “I ...

What the LTO says about changing mag wheels, rims and tires of your car, motorcycle

The new LTO PMVIC, or the Land Transportation Office - Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers, has started operations in some parts of the country for inspections of cars and motorcycles due for registration renewal. Dubbed as MVIS (Motor Vehicle Inspection System), it aims to test the roadworthiness of private and commercial vehicles prior to their registration. This also includes the checking of modifications, upgrades and accessories that have been installed on your vehicles - whether factory or aftermarket. If they don't meet LTO standards, you fail the test. Failing the MVIS test means you have to retake the inspection and worse, you can't register your vehicle any more. For purposes of discussion, I chose to talk about wheels and tires because they are the most frequently modified parts of our cars and motorcycles. Now comes the question: Is it considered illegal to replace your wheels with aftermarket mag wheels? Can those u...
