Georgia Toll Payment Options

How do you pay for tolls in Georgia? Georgia has transitioned to a fully electronic cashless tolling system for all toll roads and bridges. Georgia tollways and bridges accept NextPass, Peach Pass, E-ZPass, License Plate Tolling (pay-by-plate).

Below are some options for paying tolls in Georgia:

• NextPass Account: NextPass is a cashless toll payment option! Setup is swift and easy, and you pay as you go. Simply register your vehicle in the app or on our website, insert a payment method, and drive! You’ll never need a transponder or toll tag when driving with NextPass. You pay for tolls as you pass through them with your registered vehicle. No activation fees. No subscription. No minimum balance required. Please note: Drivers are responsible for removing their vehicle from any previous tolling accounts, like Peach Pass, E-ZPass or other tolling agencies, in order for NextPass to work successfully. 
• Peach Pass: Peach Pass is an electronic toll collection system in the state of Georgia, which is currently used primarily for high-occupancy toll lanes and express toll lanes. Most motorists open a Personal Toll Account, which requires a prepaid toll balance (minimum of $20).
• E-ZPass: Drivers can set up a transponder account, though it may take about a week to receive it by mail. Account holders are typically required to pre-pay and maintain a minimum balance to access this service.

Georgia Toll Violations

Georgia drivers who drive through Georgia tolls without a transponder or a registered NextPass account will receive a toll violation from the tolling authority.  Cameras at these tolling points will capture the license plate information and invoice the registered car owner. There is a $25 violation fee added to the toll amount per trip and the driver has 90 days to make the payment deadline before incurring additional penalties. 

How do I Pay Tolls for a Rental Car in Georgia?

If you’re planning to drive a rental car in Georgia, there are several ways to handle toll payments. With NextPass, we have you covered for tolls in your rental vehicle in Georgia. Simply add the license plate number of your rental vehicle into the app, add your payment method, and set the dates of your rental car period. Your rental car will be covered for the dates you provide through the NextPass app. You can also use the E-ZPass, Pay-By-Plate, or Video Tolling system, which allows you to pay tolls online or invoiced through the mail using your vehicle’s license plate. 

Before you hit the road, it’s advisable to discuss toll payment options with your rental car provider. If you have your own toll payment solution, you might want to opt out of the rental company’s toll services, which could include additional fees. Some rental companies charge high administrative fees for processing tolls or for using their toll devices, even if you don’t end up driving on toll roads.
