A video that went viral on TikTok shows the user using their Touch ‘n Go RFID (radio frequency identification) tag in another vehicle. The user also attempts to try and see if it works by going through tolls. The viral video receives almost 800 thousand views and over 23 thousand likes at the time of this writing.

Interestingly, the TikTok user @terbelilagi shared the video and tells others TikTok users that they can share their RFID tags too. “Luckily I bought 1, can share!” @terbelilagi says.

In the video, the user shows that the RFID tag is inside an RFID tag holder. It can also move from one car to another easily.

You can move the casing from one car to another without much hassle. It is as it uses a suction cup to stick onto the window of the car or the dashboard. As you can see from the video, there is not much problem in moving the RFID tag.

TikTok users commented on the video about how convenient it was to move the tags. Also, much better than using SmartTAG. “I have done it most of my company’s car, so far so good,” a TikTok user commented on the video.

RFID Tag Suspension

However, most RFID tag users do not know users are not allowed to share their RFID tags with other people or vehicles as stated on the Touch ‘n Go FAQ page. Sharing the tags can suspend your RFID tags.

Touch ‘n Go authorities stated that only vehicles that are registered with the RFID tags are allowed to use and they have the right to suspend any users that violate their terms of use as stated on their Terms of Use page.

You will need to buy different RFID tags for different vehicles. Also, a maximum of 10 RFID tags even can be linked to one Touch ‘n Go eWallet account.
