How FASTag Auto-Recharge Works

The FASTag Auto-Recharge feature is designed to ensure that your FASTag wallet always has sufficient funds for toll payments. When the balance in your FASTag wallet drops below a predefined threshold, the Auto-Recharge feature automatically adds funds to your wallet.

This eliminates the need for manual recharges and prevents situations where insufficient balance might cause delays or penalties at toll plazas. By automating the recharge process, you can enjoy uninterrupted travel while focusing on your journey.

Choosing the Right Auto-Recharge Settings

To open a bank account in India, you will need to provide specific documents for verification. Here is a checklist of the commonly required documents:

  • Identity Proof: Aadhaar card, PAN card, passport, voter ID, or driving licence
  • Address Proof: Aadhaar card, utility bills, or rental agreement
  • Photographs: Passport-sized photographs (usually 2-3 copies)
  • Income Proof: Salary slips or income tax returns (for specific accounts)
  • PAN Card/Form 60: Mandatory for most account types

Pro Tip: Ensure that all your documents are up-to-date and match your current address and name to avoid delays in the account opening process.

What to do if Auto-Recharge fails

In rare cases, the Auto-Recharge feature may not function as expected. Here are some common issues and their solutions:

  • Unsuccessful OTP verification: Ensure that your registered mobile number is active and has network coverage to receive the OTP. If the issue persists, contact Bajaj Finserv customer support.
  • Declined payments: Verify that your linked bank account or payment method has sufficient funds. You can also update the payment method in the app if required.
  • Technical glitches: Restart the app or try enabling the feature after some time. If the problem continues, report the issue to Bajaj Finserv’s support team.

By addressing these concerns promptly, you can avoid interruptions in your FASTag service.
