Launched in cooperation with the National Company for Road Construction, Development, and Management, the service allows light, medium, and heavy trucks to pass through more than 500 national road toll gates and weighbridges nationwide using Near Field Communication (NFC) technology.
NFC is a short-range wireless system that lets two devices exchange data when they are very close, usually within a few centimetres.
The move targets the logistics and transport sector, one of Egypt’s most cash-reliant industries, by reducing dependence on cash payments and paper-based expense settlements.
Road tolls account for 10–15 percent of operating expenses for logistics and distribution companies, making digitization key to improving oversight and transparency, according to the company.
O-Tolls enables instant and secure digital payments and allows companies to track tolls in real time, helping with financial planning, fleet management, and cost control, while reducing fraud risks and cutting waiting times for drivers.
The service strengthens Octane’s position as an integrated digital payments network for fleets in Egypt, said Amr Gamal, the company's co-founder and CEO.
He added that more than 100 companies joined the service in its first month, showing strong demand for technology solutions that improve operational efficiency in the transport sector.
Octane said it recorded strong growth in 2025, with digital transactions exceeding EGP 13 billion. The company currently serves more than 3,000 clients, manages over 270,000 vehicles, and tracks more than 500 million litres of fuel through its platform.
The company’s ecosystem includes digital fuel payments, the O-Store online marketplace for fleet supplies, the O-Care network linking vehicles to around 300 service centres, and the Mint AI-powered maintenance application.
The addition of O-Tolls completes the platform as a comprehensive electronic payment solution for road tolls in Egypt.
