TollCollect is constantly expanding its service, offering more ways and places to book tolls

This is for everyone who doesn’t want to install an OBU

For you, there are different options to book the toll.

Recently, it’s also possible via a smartphone app. This app is free for Android and iPhone.

What types of manual toll booking are available?

The toll can be booked manually in different ways. Especially if you’re not often traveling on toll roads, manual toll booking is probably the best option in my opinion.

Although Toll Collect provides the OBU for free, installation is unfortunately not free. Here, the 1100 new toll terminals and now also the smartphone app offer a great alternative. The latter makes toll booking possible anytime and anywhere in a timely manner.

The Smartphone App

The app is available in German, English, French, or Polish. The functionality is the same as with the terminals. Before starting the journey, you also enter the required data (truck details, start time, start location, and destination) here, and the app calculates the required route including the applicable toll and the non-toll sections. Unfortunately, the toll can only be booked up to 24 hours in advance.

Since images speak louder than words, let the images speak for themselves. In any case, the app’s interface is very simple and almost self-explanatory.

My Own Experiences with the App

Since our vehicles are generally equipped with an OBU, I can’t say much about toll booking via the app.

However, according to the information I have available, a lot can be done with the app. It is also possible to cancel the toll that was booked online via the app or at any terminal.

For those who claim that the toll can no longer be traced due to the change, it is possible to do so via the app.

The app is available both in the Apple Store and the Google Play Store.
