How to pay toll in Texas

Most of the toll facilities in Texas are equipped with electronic gantries (are cashless) so a toll tag is a preferred mode of payment here. You can use a TxTag issued by TxDOT and any other toll tags compatible with it. You cannot pay tolls using E-ZPass in Texas. There are some toll bridges and toll roads that still accept cash. You can also use video tolling system such as Pay by mail on TxDOT roads or ZipCash on NTTA roads.

Refer to various methods to pay toll in Texas for more detail.

How to pay missed toll in Texas

When a motorist without a valid toll tag drives through tolling points, high-speed cameras take digital images of the license plate, and the tolls are billed to the registered owner of the vehicle. On receiving such a notice, you have to pay the missed toll via ZipCash. You can also make a payment through the automated phone service by calling 1-888-468-9824.
