When you order a pass, you will be required to set up a toll pass account with the state or regional agency that issues the transponder or sticker.
After you get your pass, you will need to associate the transponder number with the vehicle you are using.
Often, families will have more than one vehicle and, consequently, more than one pass on their account. Most agencies permit more than one transponder to be assigned to an account, but only one vehicle may be assigned to a transponder ID at any given time.
If you wish to order the TxTag issued by Texas, the state offers the following types of accounts:
The TxTag Personal Prepaid account is for personal, non-commercial users who have privately-owned cars, trucks, motorcycles or the like. The TxTag accounts have a limit of five (5) transponders, whether portable or sticker-type transponders. There is a deposit required for portable transponders, but not for the sticker.
Once you acquire your first TxTag, your account will require a minimum of $20 in tolls to cover your first trips.
The TxTag Commercial Prepaid account is for commercial business or companies. This account must be used if you have a vehicle with three (3) or more axles, or if you plan to have six (6) or more transponders on your account.
Accounts of this type require a form to be prepared in advance of opening the account. Once the form is completed, you may send it via FAX or mail it.
When you have completed the TxTag application form, you may mail it to the following address:
TxTag CSC
12719 Burnet Road
Austin TX 78727
To FAX your application, send to 214-210-0492.

Some states may issue discounts for using a toll pass, but not all. In states or on roads where there is a discount, the discount may be limited to those with an account with that state's toll pass system, i.e.: state of Texas.
To learn what discounts may apply to you, simply use our toll calculators. Applicable discounts, and the terms that apply, are shown for each roadway.

The following transponders are accepted on the toll roads in Texas. Any toll pass/transponder with a logo matching those shown below will be compatible with the TxTag network in Texas.
Be aware that discounts given for using a toll pass or transponder may be restricted or otherwise limited to passes issued by Texas.
Compatible passes issued by states other than Texas may not qualify for discount tolls, but the transponder will work on toll roads within the state of Texas.
Crucially, if you have a toll pass or transponder that is used with one of the following networks, your pass will not work in Texas.
Regional pass compatibility has become quite common, particularly across the New England states to the Midwest and through the Mid-Atlantic. Additionally, two other large, regional networks dominate the Southern Plains and the Deep South.
See our “Install Toll Pass” section for complete mounting instructions for your toll pass.

Most states' and many regions' toll agencies have their version of an electronic toll sticker or transponder, from E-ZPass and compatible transponders like I-Pass and Sunpass, to more regional and local networks, like TxTag, K-Tag or California's FasTrak.
In most jurisdictions, using a transponder means lower toll bills, as many agencies discount the toll rates for toll pass account holders. The discounts can be substantial for regular haulers and commuters, who may need to use a specific road or group of roads on a consistent basis.
See our “Install Toll Pass” section for complete mounting instructions for your toll pass.

The E-ZPass system is the largest interoperable toll collection and payment system in the United States.
States connected to the E-ZPass system include Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia and West Virginia.
Additionally, as of May 28, 2021, all of Florida's toll roads are compatible with E-ZPass.
The SunPass is used primarily on state and local toll roads in Florida. SunPass unveiled the Sunpass Pro in 2021, which is compatible with all E-ZPass roads. E-ZPass transponders and stickers are now compatible on Florida toll roads.
It is important to note that Sunpass stickers and transponders issued before May 28, 2021 are only compatible with Georgia and North Caroilna toll roads; the LeeWay, issued in the Fort Myers area, is also only compatible with the old SunPass network system, not the new one.
The accompanying graphics show where each version of SunPass is compatible, and it displays the passes that are compatible with the network of states shown.
SunPass Pro: Compatible With E-ZPass
Regular SunPass: NOT Compatible With E-ZPass

TxTag is the statewide pass used across the state of Texas. There are two other major regional systems in Texas: the TollPass from the Dallas-Fort Worth area and the TollTag from the Houston area. Both systems are compatible across the state of Texas.
Additionally, all passes from Texas may be used in Oklahoma and Kansas, and vice versa. The Kansas K-Tag and the Oklahoma PikePass are also compatible across this tri-state region of the Southern Plains.
FasTrak is California's statewide electronic toll system. It is not compatible with systems outside California.
There are other toll systems in states that operate toll roads, tunnels and/or bridges. These include Colorado's ExpressToll and Go Pass!, the Good To Go pass in Washington State, as well as various bridge passes and cards that are used at international crossings between the United States and Canada.
See our “Install Toll Pass” section for complete mounting instructions for your toll pass.
