More context would be helpful.

I have a transponder, not a card, mounted on the windshield of my car so that I can go through the express lanes of toll roads. There is no attendant in these lanes. My transponder is interrogated, identified, and the appropriate (so I hope!) amount is deducted from my account balance

Было интересно прочитать информацию garyg. Что же до "российских" т.н. карт экспресс оплаты - то под ними, ИМХО, в первую очередь понимаются предоплаченные дебетовые карточки, т.е. prepaid (scratch) cards.

My transponder is also pre-paid (toll roads don't give credit!). I have to have enough money in my account (look up http://www.ezpass.com/static/info/howit.shtml to see how it works) before going through the toll booth.

In short, similar principles and technology but somewhat different conditions of usage

Вот как раз на ссылке kondorsky и изображены scratch карты, которые у нас массово используются для экспресс-оплаты. А transponders это уже из области RFID - тоже, конечно, есть, но пока не так широко распространены.

Debit cards in the UK have RFID chips and are controversial for that reason.

Here usually just a PIN is required.

I also have a phone card for making long-distance calls (usually for when I am travelling as I have other options at home: a) included in my telephone service and b) Skype ;-) It, too, is pre-paid.

I get the impression that Russian express payment cards function like debit cards. Does anyone know how they are different?

To garyg
Your impression is right. Most of our express payment cards function like debit cards. If this issue is of interest to you, you can find a lot of information about the Russian card market and cashless payment technologies at http://www.plusworld.ru (in Russian and English)
