I have been a Touch ‘n Go user for quite a long time. However, I do not have a SmartTAG since then. However, I just brought a Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG recently. Why? This is part of my department effort – “Move KM” which everyone can have one free. I can claim the purchasing fee from my department. 
Touch ‘n Go ~ SmartTAG
I did some researches about the Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG price before I brought it. The official price at Touch ‘n Go website is RM100. However, some of my friend got it at RM90 + minimum Touch ‘n Go reload value RM50. Else you need to buy a new RM100 Touch ‘n Go card with it. For my case, I got it at RM100 for the Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG unit only. No need purchasing a new Touch ‘n Go card or reload Touch ‘n Go value. But it is RM100 as stated in Touch ‘n Go website. 
Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG in action
Where should I place the Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG unit? This is the first question come into my mind. It should be placed at the center bottom of the windscreen. But that placement was already taken by my Garmin NuVi 200W GPS. So where should I put Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG unit then? 
Finally, I put Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG slightly left beside my Garmin Nuvi 200W GPS. They both will be good friend when I travel.

It’s been sometime since I left Malaysia and it’s great to hear they finally have sat nav over there. However, I was just wondering how you get to a address. I am sure you can’t use post code.
Not sure about post code. My GPS is with my friend now. Will check on it when it return.
Hi Jaycee,
I like using Smart-Tag, ’cause I think it saves on petrol….especially during peak hours with the long queue :=D
Hmm… Why you called me Jaycee??
I got mine about a year back, when I had to pass by 4 toll booths (3 tolls) to get to work. Reason: saves me money in the long run
- winding down my window 8 times a day will kill it for sure
- queues in touch n go and cash tolls will hold me back for 3×10 minutes, to and fro, thats almost an hour daily; there goes my petrol money and time
I’m still amazed at the number of cars that don’t have smarttag on the road in KL though…
Woo… You pay a lot of toll fee. Luckily, I don’t need to use any toll to work at Kulim.
ya, i just got one few months back, RM 90 + reload RM 50 on my existing touch n go. Don’t understand why they forced ppl to reload and also forced ppl to buy a new one if you forgot to bring ur existing touch n go..
I don’t know too. Anyway, they did not force me to reload or buy a new card. But just sell at higher price – RM100.
Hi!i also using the GPS navigator and smart tag together.I would propose u to use the antislide mat and put it on your dashboard.You smart tag device can put on the mat.So, you do not need to put both devices in the windscreen that mind block your view.
@vincent: Thanks for your advise. But as you can see on the photo. My SmartTag holder already stuck on the windscreen. It is hard to remove it.
may i know where can i get the cheaper touch n go card?
Sorry… Not sure. I think the price is about the same among Touch ‘n Go outlets.
I would like to know if the smartag shows the balance amount in the touch-n-go card.
Yes. Just press the right button, and it will show the amount left.
well….i want to know,,,,where to buy smart tag with big amount…can give me an adress…..touch n go to…..plz2…urgent..
[...] no worry about your GPS and mobile phone from failing. It holds them well too. Besides, it can hold Touch ‘n Go SmartTAG [...]
