From 1 June 2025, Bakwena will upgrade to contactless card payments on the N1N4 route, enhancing security and reducing fraudulent toll transactions. This upgrade will enable real-time payments thereby reducing the risk of stolen debit or credit cards being used by fraudsters at toll plazas. Contactless payments ensures that your card remains in your possession during payment.
In the meantime, Bakwena will continue to accept credit and fleet card magstripe payments as well as cash and Sanral tag payment methods at Bakwena toll plazas. Please note that no debit cards are accepted.
