The SANRAL app is part of the agency’s shift to provide its customers with a personalised experience.

The South African National Roads Agency (SOC) Limited (SANRAL) has a new app that enables commuters’ access to check and top-up the balances on their electronic toll accounts in real time.

Vusi Mona, Communications Manager at SANRAL, said this app helps to make travelling on the SANRAL road network easier and more comfortable and adds value to our account holders.

“It shows that SANRAL is not going with the flow. It is ahead of the flow,” he said. The app, named SANRAL, can be downloaded for free on all Android and IOS devices.

“It is all about convenience for motorists and contributing to safer and enjoyable journeys,” said Mona.

In addition to checking out the status of the user’s toll account it adds information about weather conditions, traffic congestion and incidents on the road ahead to enhance a traveler’s journey.

The SANRAL app is part of the agency’s shift to provide its customers with a personalised experience as it lets users set up their preferences for customised content at the start.

More is on the way as new applications are added. Soon the app will enable users to pay for petrol, renew licence disks or even pay for parking.

“Let the SANRAL app take care of the boring stuff while you enjoy the ride,” said Mona.
