Zimbabwe rolled out electronic toll tags through Zinara and tech company Instatoll about three months back after a six-month test run at Ntabazinduna plaza on the Bulawayo-Harare highway, and roughly 30,000 vehicles have signed up for the RFID windshield stickers that auto-open boom gates without stopping. Transport ministry official Joy Makumbe says the system ditches cash payments to kill the queues that pile up during holidays, while Zinara board chair George Manyaya confirmed logistics companies are registering their entire fleets.

The setup covers nine toll plazas with 58 lanes total, and Manyaya mentioned they are building an e-wallet app tied to SIM cards for paying vehicle licensing fees and toll charges. Instatoll operations manager George Mupfuka said Ntabazinduna went from handling 2,500 cars daily when it opened to around 25,000 per day, and the prepaid tags fix network glitches that used to back up traffic whenever card readers failed.
