Quick and easy - thx
Thank you so very much for the ease of receiving my renewal tag. It was delivered in great shape and I already have it on my truck. Live is much better with a service like yours.
Very easy and straight forward
Won't use this service again. Registration fee $46.10 Service charge $19.95? Agency fee, Credit Card Convenience Fee and Shipping & handling $9.45 = Total $75.50. Total rip off. No, won't do it again.
So much easier than going to the DMV and the long lines.
I accidently went to this site thinking I was getting my tags through the Maryland Registration process. The fees were extremely high when my tags were only 187.00 and I ended up paying 216.17 which was too late to cancel when I realized it. I am disappointed that the MVA even endorses this Website. Never again!

WAS SHOCKED TO SEE THE EXTRA charges for using services that appear to be from the state of Florida
Its great. I got them just on time. I notice that mine had expired this month, i did not received dmv re registretion yet on my vehicle. I looked up in the internet follow the link, placed the order, took a couple days to get it. I am happy
Hi,
I thought that the idea of e-tags was great, $70.00, but I was disappointed by the price. It would seem to me that you could do much better pricing this service. It seemed as though the pricing was very high.Some thought should be given to this. It is something that I look forward to using again, should the pricing change.

It was so good
It was pretty easy to navigate the site.
But it's pricy,
Very well satisfied as always.
Overall it was a painless experience online. However, when I was in the check out, it stated that my costs was approximately $33+tax/fees... and I got charged about $233+. I double checked the fees with the DMV; however, you should have provided the costs upfront. I was not ready to pay $200 extra.
Hi Rebecca, thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. The registration fee is calculated offline by a state licensed agency which is why that amount was not shown on the website. You can calculate your registration fee by clicking on any of the icons made available throughout the order process. We apologize if any of this was unclear and also for any inconvenience the total charge has caused you. We would love the opportunity to see how we can assist you further. Please feel free to contact our support team at 888-633-5332 or at [email protected].

Yes, I received my etags - thank you for the efficient service you have given me, the price was a little higher than last years.
Everything went will within a good time frame, it just cost a little more than going in person. However, time and energy is saved.
Hi Tharon, thanks for your comment. We are happy to hear that you found eTags services convenient. We will pass along your additional input to our decision making team to see how we can better improve on the cost value. Thanks again and Happy New Year!
Wow! No more packing a picnic lunch to go to the DMV. Etags is simply the best. My entire experience was simply awesome. It took me about 10 mins on the site to do the application (which was very user friendly) I received my tags in the mail in less than a week.
Thank you! I saved time, energy and money by using Etags. Awesome!
Hi Myrtle, "packing a picnic lunch to the DMV", lol!... Yes, we know how frustrating DMV visits can be sometimes although these state departments are doing their best working with the resources available to them. If your online renewal process took 10 minutes, we need to do better for next year! If you choose to renew with eTags again next year, we hope to cut that time in half since we will pre-populate some the information so that you can check out faster. Plus, you will be provided a discount on the service and get RUSH processing for free. Thanks again for your feedback. Drive Safely and Have an Awesome New Year.
The city of Anna Maria has no mail service. The officials of Manatee County need to understand this. We have no official United States postal address. This is the 21st century. Get with it.
You forced me to write long review, because the other day i just wrote 'perfect', but you told me that it could not be less that 80 words or so. I really was satisfied with order - with all procedure, the only thing and it is very important to me because I am retired and i am very limited with my budget, it is price: very high: i paid double amount with your company compare with amount that i would pay going to government side. When i started to pay online, i thought it was government side, I decided to do it, because you will take only a few dollars more, but i was very wrong - the price was doubled, it was late and nothing i could change.: first you show me amount like $45., but at the end amount became like $80.00. Thanks.
Hi Elvira, thank you for your feedback and we apologize that you have had an unsatisfactory experience. We certainly do not want the use of our services to cost you any financial hardship. At your earliest convenience, please call our support team at 888-633-5332 or email us at [email protected] so that we can review your order with us and see how we can assist with this matter.
Answer: Hi Karl, yes, you can. If you are already an owner of the vehicle, you can order a duplicate or replacement title if you lost your original copy. If you need to transfer ownership into your name, you can also request a transfer of the title only without applying for a registration. We provide both of these services in Florida, California, and Pennsylvania. New York services will be online soon. Visit eTags.com to choose the state and service. If your vehicle is not currently registered in any of those state or you are not transferring that title to that state, you can still do the same service directly with the DMV in the state you are in. Thanks for your question and best of luck.
Answer: Hello Patricia, thanks for your question and our apologies on the delay in reply as we do not check this third party, independent website regularly. You certainly can order a duplicate Florida title on our website by visiting https://www.etags.com/app/fl/print-title. If you have any questions or need any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us directly by phone or email were we promise to get back to you in a prompt time frame. Take Care and Drive Safely.
Answer: Hi John, thanks for your question. We currently offer renewal service online in California, Maryland, and Florida. You will be able to still use our service if your vehicle is registered in California or Florida. Please keep in mind that the DMV will require we collect the past due amount along with the fee to bring your tag current through the next year. If your vehicle is registered in Maryland, the MVA requires you renew in person if you are more than 6 months late so you will not be able to complete the order online with eTags. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Answer: Hi John, thanks for your question. If you would like to no longer receive emails from eTags, you can click on the "Unsubscribe" link located at the bottom of any email you received from us. We can also unsubscribe you if you would like to send us your order ID or tag number and name on the order. To unsubscribe from emails from separate parties such as SiteJabber or ShopperApproved, please use the unsubscribe link in their emails or contact them as they are not affiliated with eTags. We hope this information helps. Take Care and Drive Safely.
Answer: Hi Wilma, thank you for your message. We apologize for the delayed reply as this site (sitejabber.com) is not owned or operate by eTags and we do not monitor communications via this independent reviews website regularly. Our support team can respond to inquires within 24 hours if we are contacted directly by phone or email. On our website, both before and after and order is submitted for Florida registered vehicle, we itemized our service fees and we disclose that your state registration fee is to be determined (TBD). The Florida registration fee is not listed on the website becuase, since we are not the DMV, we have to send your plate information to a state licensed agency to calculate that amount and that is done offline. We do provide a resource before the order is placed that allow you to estimate the amount of your state registration fee and we also disclose on our website that we are not owned or operated by any government agency. We apologize if you missed that information prior to completing your order. Your registration was already renewed on 3/24/17 and this cannot be reversed with the state DMV. Your tags were already shipped to the address you provided us at the time you placed your order. Please contact our customer support team directly by phone or email and they will be able to assist you with any additional questions or concerns you may have.
Answer: Hi Kim, Thank you for letting us know. I am sorry you have not received your shipment. Please forward either your Order # or plate number and I will investigate and get back to you quickly. Kind regards, Cole


Hi Mary, we are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the services and cost.
