"Salik subscribers now don't have to physically visit Salik tag selling outlets to recharge their account as they can do it by using our website from the convenience of their home or office," said Maitha Obaid Bin Udai, Chief Executive Officer of the Traffic and Roads Agency at the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).
She said that new service is a vital addition to an array of customer-friendly services already available on the website offering Salik subscribers full access to information on their Salik account.

The on-line recharge service will enable Salik users to add more credit to their Salik account through three payment options - credit card, e-dirham or direct debt from the user's bank account. The minimum recharge amount is Dh50.
Salim Al Shair, director of e-Services at Dubai e-Government, said the role of Dubai e-Government in supporting RTA by facilitating the payment procedures of Salik would helped immensely in the success of the system.
He said that Salik subscribers can now check their Salik account balance on-line. Motorists can now also check their accounts through the new IVR service offered by the call centre by calling 800 Salik (72545).
