However, there was no official license displayed at the description at press time. ## Say no more to RM0.50 reload fees According to Touch 'n Go's[ official website](https://www.touchngo.com.my/consumer/toll/card/), the enhanced Touch 'n Go Card is **"fully equipped with NFC technology to enable reloads via Touch 'n Go eWallet anytime and anywhere"**.
