New, Blue TollTags make Debut The long-awaited sleek, new sticker TollTags are here! The familiar hard-case TollTag is now a thing of the past, replaced with a slim, adhesive version, similar to a vehicle registration sticker. The new TollTag comes with all the great benefits of the existing TollTag; it’s simply better looking.
Aside from the cleaner look, the new sticker TollTag offers a quicker, more accurate read than its hard-case predecessor because it contains a chip that send a stronger signal as vehicles travel through the toll gantries. With the new TollTags, the NTTA continues to utilize the most state-of-the-art equipment in providing tolling to north Texas.
Now, you can get a sticker TollTag without immediately activating it, making it perfect for gift giving. It also provides the NTTA the ability to offer TollTags in more locations throughout North Texas. However, prior to traveling on NTTA facilities with your new sticker TollTag, make sure that you call and activate the account, or you will receive violations or ZipCash invoices at the higher non-TollTag rate.
One major difference with the sticker TollTag is that once it has been installed it cannot be removed without damaging the TollTag. If the TollTag is removed, the internal chip is destroyed and cannot be read by the roadway sensors. A new TollTag should be installed as soon as possible.
If you’ve become attached to your existing hard case TollTag, no worries. Customers are not required to exchange their hard case TollTags for the newer model, however if they choose to they can at no additional charge.
All the rules associated with the TollTag will be unchanged, including the ability to have up to three TollTags, a family pack, on one account at no additional charge. TollTag customers will also continue to save money over cash and ZipCash paying customers. TollTag access to airport parking at D/FW International and Dallas Love Field airports and the ability to use your TollTag on toll roads throughout the state will not change.
