Now that so many toll roads are, in most cases you have two toll payment options: a toll transponder, or a toll bill in the mail. And sometimes, you may even get a toll violation with a hefty fine. Now, thanks to the Uproad app, you can automate your toll road payments and travel stress-free.
Uproad helps its users to promptly pay tolls and cut down the cost of their car trips. In total, there are over 5,000 miles of toll roads in the US — yet using them sometimes can be stressful, even if you have a transponder. Now you can download the Uproad app for free from App store or Google Play Market and let it pay your tolls while you concentrate on driving.
Once you set up your account, you can start using Uproad the next day. You can add up to ten cars to it and select between manual payments or the Autopay mode.
You’ll top up your Uproad balance to pay for tolls with your debit card or credit card, Venmo or PayPal account. The app charges a small fee on top of the toll agency charge however, you can reduce the fee by purchasing a $19.99 yearly Premium membership if you use toll roads a lot.
The app automatically connects to the databases of the tolling authorities and sends them your license plate number. After this you will receive a notification about the payment.
The app started in California but is quickly expanding to other states and soon will cover all 5,000 miles of toll roads in the US. From a tolling agency point of view, Uproad is a game-changer. This handy innovation guarantees that payments are received on time. Since no excessive facilitators will be involved in the process, the risk of bugs or blunders will be reduced to a minimum and transactions will happen without delays.
If you have any questions regarding the app’s functioning, you can get in touch with customers’ support right through its interface. In case you accidentally receive a conventional bill for the toll that you have already paid through the app, the Uproad team will handle that.
This handy app also features a trip calculator that helps you to plan upcoming expenses before setting out on a trip. Also, it allows you to track your personal and business toll use separately. This toll payment app helps you keep travel expenses under control, avoid toll agency fines, and generally makes toll road travel more enjoyable. There are hundreds of toll agencies in the US, so instead of dealing with payment to each one individually, Uproad takes care of it for you.
