I travel to France around 3 times each year mainly solo so was gonna finally bite the bullet and get a tag. I initially thought the Emovis tag but it's 54 euros to set up in the first year with application fee, annual account fee, deposit and 2 months of 7 euros usage fee so i don't see the gain. The Bip and Go looked perfect so tried to set it up and Santander can't take the Sepa direct debit needed so no go there. Any other PAYG type solutions out there with lower admin costs like the Bip and Go? Thanks.
Just as an update for anyone interested i managed to get an IBAN number from the Euro section of my Wise account and it was accepted and have registered for the BIP & GO tag. 20 euros for registration and postage then 2.10 euros per month that it is used.

That’s quite a lot less than I’m paying of my emovis tag . Wish I would have looked into this

Have used both Emovis & Bip & Go, B&G much smoother & cheaper and arrived within a couple of days, app is super easy to use as well

Bip & Go in conjunction with a Revolut bank account. Very easy to set up and manage. Cheapest option for non French residents and they even bill you a month after you've travelled.
Bip and go tag so easy to use especially when flying solo
Been using Bip & Go for a while now and find it brilliant.
Is Bip & Go only available for use in France?

Thanks Vossy. Looking for a mate who's gonna be travelling a bit over Christmas and needs something that can also be used in Belguim and Germany.

I opened an account with Ulys this year, I think it was 9.90euro for the tag and a 2 euro charge each month you use, worked brilliantly for me this year.
