Last time we used the Peage I just used my bank card no need to input the pin it just read it and away, that was 2019 I dare say that they’ve been upgraded by now to contactless. So all you need is a handy safe place to keep it. Just keep an eye on which class of vehicle they charge for, but a quick press of the button and say “Je suis une moto s'il vous plaît”
usually does the trick :mrgreen:

That works too, but the tag is just ride up and the gate opens no, taking gloves off or rooting for cards etc :D

Yeah, with contactless. the SANEF tags are a bit superfluous (but handy).

You now get those ID card holders with super strong recoil lanyards, that could be handy for a CC at tolls. Fit the card in the holder (I think they are for office badges) and secure the lanyard to your tank/bar bag internal. No chance of dropping it, or fumbling etc.
